Hello,
I am new to Python.
I am trying to start writing some simple programs in it.
Which IDE would you suggest? I am currently using NeatBeans for my Java programs but i don't think i can use it for Python
P.S. I am using Mac OS X 10.5.7
Thank you

Jump to Postyou could try eclipse, with some plug-in if you want a fully featured IDE.
what i do personally, is usually use it notepad++, which provides basic syntax highlighting. in a learning process there is nothing better than actually making use of the references and not relying on auto-complete.

I think there is a Python plugin available for NetBeans.
Another good IDE is DrPython that is wxPython based, clean and quick, and works on Windows, Linux, and Mac Unix.

Another great IDE (again wxPython based) is SPE and there is a release for the Mac:
