I've been looking for a good python IDE but only managed to find a couple from here: http://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonEditors. If you guys know of any others please post.

E: They should be free and support python 2.7(windows or cross platform)

I know eclipse has python support. I've never used it, but I liked using eclipse for Java.

Windows: I always used IDLE, always worked pretty well for me.
OS X: Coda hands down. Such a great editor.

Stay away from the python plugin + netbeans…
I like PyDev for ecplise. Komodo Editor is good if you manage to find a way to run code from the editor.

IDLE, pyscripter, SPE (i personally use SPE and i quite love it)


So far, it looks like im going to use pyscripter and SPE, but im looking for an ide with code completion, and things like ctrl click a function name and it takes me there(similar to simba)–does spe have this?. Also it would be good if it has WYSIWYG gui design capability.

E: would be nice to have a line by line debugger sort of thing(am i making sense?)

spe has as good autocompletion as you're likely to get with python. I'm unsure as ctrl click since i never use it.

and debugger it the python debugger in all ide's afaik, so it wont vary no matter what you use.
