    [SOLVED] What IDE is the best for Python?

    What is the best IDE for Python?

    Here is what I want to a IDE.


    • It must have a Run...(something to run the program easy)

    • It must have python console(like the Python IDLE).

    • It must have a good text editor.



    I have some screenshot of what I want.

    I too would be interested in a good python editor. Currently I use gedit and a terminal window. Have you tried pyDev + eclipse? ( http://pydev.sourceforge.net/ ) I used this a bit last year and as I remember it was quite good. It had auto completion, and a run button. I think it even had a way to help debug which is nice. On the down side Eclipse is a bit slow, but once it is open it should not be too big of a problem.

    Eclipse doesn't have one by default. But it looks like it's quite trivial to add a console view.

    The screen shot of idle you have appears to just show the interactive python editor you get when just typing python in the console.

    Once you have a terminal within eclipse just run python and you should have the interactive window. It will probably require cd-ing to the proper directory to have the same functionality, but with a little tweaking it seems very do-able.

    My favorite editor that has these features is Geany - its in the repositories...A newer version or svn are available at http://geany.uvena.de/.
    Alternatively, there is SPE, also available from the repositories. From my experiance though, it is somewhat prone to crashing.

    Geany is my favorite Python IDE. The interface is very clean and I had very little problems. Also it can work with other languages.

    The two main players are Anjunta and KDevelop. In the end you have to try them all and see which one suits you best. See the "What's your favorite IDE" thread at the top of the forum page.

    Following your requirements you could use Gedit with Better Python Console Plug-In:
    http://live.gnome.org/Gedit/Plugins/BetterPythonConsole

    I will provide a Run and IDLE-like console (launched when do a Run).

    There are a many Plug-Ins for Gedit like auto-completion of previously typed tex that make your life easy!
    Thanks to all who help me out and the developpers!

    Friendly greetings... CU
