editor for Python on Linux

Re: editor for Python on Linux

I really think that IDLE is one of the best around in Python source editing.
The only great lacks are tabs. Does somebody know if is there some IDLE
modified version including tabbed browsing, out there?

Yes, but that rant is still a pure jewel of geek madness.

Re: editor for Python on Linux

I'm writing a simple yet powerful text editor for GNOME that is great
for Python development called Scribes. It features

Snippets (ala Textmate/Eclipse)
Automatic word completion
Automatic indentation
Automatic bracket completion
Automatic saving
Bookmarks
Syntax Highlight
etc..

It's faster, lighter, simpler and as powerful than the alternatives,
and most important it never gets in your way and you would never need
to decipher cryptic manuals to do anything moderately productive,
unlike some other editors. It's free software too, give it a try. As a
bonus, it's written in Python.

I've been using wing for quite some time and it's an excellent dedicated
editor for python. If you want flexible debugging in a gui environment
it's hard to beat.

It was said that Boa is good, but I prefer SPE.
WingIDE is good but commercial, I tried it but didn't buy.

Maybe you try out DrPython.

(Written in Python and wxPython, Autocompletion, Calltips,
easily extensible with plugins and scripts, source browser, ...)

That's a joke, son. A flag waver. You're built too low. The
fast ones go over your head. Ya got a hole in your glove. I
keep pitchin' 'em and you keep missin' 'em. Ya gotta keep
your eye on the ball. Eye. Ball. I almost had a gag, son.
Joke, that is.

You could try Eclipse with Pydev: http://pydev.sf.net
or its commercial counterpart: Pydev Extensions:

He said "IDE." That means "vim"

I've got a lot of replies on this message.
In jEdit auto ident don't work OK.

Answers like vi, emacs and gedit I won't take seriously.
For gods sake, gedit don't even have syntax highlighting (at least on
Centos 4.2).

I would like syntax highlighting, auto ident and if possible auto
completition and embedded help.

I downloaded a couple of sugestions and I will try it. Thank you for
your answers :) .

Actually gedit does have syntax highlighting and works quite well.
If you put down emacs so casually you obviously have no experience with
one of the most powerful text editors available. I don't use because I
like the X windows editors more.

Basically any editor that can insert spaces for tabs and maintain
indentation level works well.

For Unices:
I like cooledit, besides syntax highlighting for a variety of
languages, it uses python as its internal scripting language and has a
powerful indent/undent feature.

xcoral is good, another highly configurable editor.

gedit

idle

ee (also know as aee) works pretty decently for maintaining tabbing

vi (*not* vim, which is a travesty that doesn't even work right) if
nothing else is available

For M$:
Idle
PFE
vim

I don't know anything about gedit, but why not take Emacs and Vim (not
vi) seriously?

Both certainly give you those and *so* much more.

Yes, some possibilities are pretty good, like for instance the
findAll/findInFiles keeping the results in a new tab (I never saw this
elsewhere). Another useful is having the debugger launching the
application in a separate process, an excellent way to avoid bugs
pollution coming into the IDE.
