Re: [pygame] IDE ?

[bw <stabbingfinger@xxxxxxxxx>]

I'm sad. When I decided to start using Python 3 I immediately discovered DrPython has problems with it.

After a day of searching, I found the one with the smallest learning curve was Komodo Edit. It worked without any struggle. I set up commands to run three Python versions, no sweat, all it took was configuring the command line (C:...\Python.exe %F) and the PYTHONPATH environment variable, all of which Komodo provides a neat UI for. I was back up and coding in no time. Then I found a nice add-on for Komodo, NST (New Source Tree, a code browser which is one of the things I really liked about DrPython.

It could not have been any easier. I am happy again.

Hope this helps. :)

DrPython editor in Windows and Linux. If I need to debug I use pdb. I like Netbeans but it's gargantuan, way more than I need.

This must have been asked before....

Which IDE do you like?

I'd want Free and Cross-Platform (Win/Linux).

A debugger would be very handy.

Would be beneficial if it is widely used and that it will be around a good long time.

I can't tell if they mean Eclipse/Pydev has a steep learning curve because of the installation/setup or the everyday use?

If not that, then Spider and PyScripter looked like possible candidates...

I know there are hold outs for Emacs and Vim...(Im a Vim usermyself) 

but I'm asking whihc IDEs do you use and like (and if you dont use one, perhaps you know of one that many people generally use and like)

thanks.
