Are there any editors besides IDLE that can display doc-strings[*] in
popups? I tried SPE and DrPython, and while they are ok (better said
'not horribly bad'), they don't seem to have that option.
I'd like to see in an editor:
- code-completion in case of functions, member variables etc.
("intelli-sense"? :) )
- useful usage of doc-strings, maybe integrated python Help/Manual support
- MDI or similar style, with good navigation (this is why I don't like
IDLE)
Actually, SPE is pretty close, but auto-completion seems to behave
'funny' sometimes, and no doc-string support I can see...
[*] Maybe I misnamed them. I was thinking of:
def f():
"""This is a doc-string"""
pass

You could try Komodo. The recently released 3.0 has much better Python
autocomplete/calltip support. (Note: I work on Komodo so I am biased.) http://www.activestate.com/Products/Komodo/

There is but one Python editor and his name is Eric3
( http://www.die-offenbachs.de/detlev/eric3.html).
I'm not associated with the project (tho I have sent in bugs), my bias is one of
deep fondness. It's written in Python (yay!) and uses QT for widgets. This means
that to run it under Windows I use Cygwin's X server and tunnel my X connection
through SSH. Piece of cake, really.
Yep.
Doesn't it cost around $3000 for a Qt license to run the program?

He's describing a setup that uses Qt for X11 (which is released under
the GPL) that just happens to run on Windows (or at least the X server
runs on Windows). He is *not* using the Qt libraries that use native
Windows drawing calls (which is only available under a proprietary
license from Trolltech).

Did you took a closer look to DrPython?
This feature is called CallTips in DrPython.
It is realized as plugin and you can it download from the plugin section
of downloads.
I'd like to see in an editor:
- code-completion in case of functions, member variables etc.
("intelli-sense"? :) )
there is also a plugin "AutoComple te".
- useful usage of doc-strings, maybe integrated python Help/Manual support
What do you mean exactly?
- MDI or similar style, with good navigation (this is why I don't like

All open Documents can be easily reached through the notebook-tabs.

Hello,
I just started programming in Python last night, and I've really enjoyed my
experience so far. I would like to know if there is a Windows editor that
recognizes Python and will support a module syntax/definition lists For
instance, let's say that I set form = cgi and then when I hit the period
(".") on the keyboard, a list of objects shows up, such as FieldStorage(),
etc.. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thank you!

I am compiling a list of XML editors and categorizing them by WYSIWYG,

The current list is available @ http://www.xml-dev.com/xml/editors.html
Any feedback/addition/correction will be highly appreciated.

I would like to hear recommendations on good CSS editors.
Personally, I would like a CSS editor with 'code-completion'.
In effect, I would like to be able to see different properties and their
possible values as I type, or at least next to the css-code window in a
reference window.
I have tried Style Master, but did not like it at all, it wasn't fast
enough, and not 'pro' enough for a text-editor-kinda CSS designer like me.

Hi
I've just upgraded some Type Editors from 1.1 to 2.0 and whilst they compile
OK, I'm not getting any results in the test harness PropertyGrid. Usually
when you select a particular property, the ellipsis appears at the end of the
cell and this is not heppening.
I was therefore wondering if there had been changes in TypeEditors between
..NET versions 1.1 and 2.0 that I hadn't hear about.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
