I use DrPython. You can download quite a number of plugins for it. It works on Windows and Linux, and was originally written by a teacher of Python. It's easy to switch between editor, shell and output windows. It also handles the input() or raw_input() function well.
I was about to choose it when I failed to see debugger. That made me give up!

Re: What editor do you use and why?

Well, I run OSX, so my editor of choice for html, java, php, c, and python is textmate. One editor that has syntax highlighting, project management, and plenty of keyboard shortcuts. Yes it costs money, but its a tool, and you get what you or someone else has paid for.

Re: What editor do you use and why?

I use Emacs for everything, mostly under Windows but also those rare occasions I find myself running Linux. I had to learn it -- it was the only decent screen editor available to me in 1978.

Yeah that did it for me as well. I really enjoy having a debugger in my IDE. It makes it a lot easier. Though i still hate it how i cant find an IDE that dosent to the whole wx.App has not been created error! That is really annoying yet seemingly unavoidable. IT comes around when using wxPython and you run it a few times and then it sends an error saying that the wx.App has not been created?!
