PyDev is really nice. I use it a lot and it works great.

It's just a bit heavy and why should one need a Java IDE for Python development ;-)

Another "issue" is the lack of integration with a UML tool (code generation and reverse engineering), though an ArgoUML plugin is in the making (not for eclipse).


btw What Web/XML plugins are you using with eclipse?

eclipse with PyDev has been the winner for me.  I also still do a bunch
of Java coding - so there is an added benefit of one tool across
languages.  The final thing I really like with eclipse is the svn
plugins - making life very easy.  Also, if your doing web/xml and other
stuff - there is a plugin for eclipse for it ;)  Not all the plugins
work as seemlessly together (i abandon eclipse for the majority of
plone/zope stuff - most of it isn't python - and setting up eclipse to
be happy with the output of archgen has not been worth the bother - I'm
sure it's possible)

PyLint can kind of be a pain if your on a low powered box, but tweaking
the settings (and I had to do a bit of tweaking) can alleviate the
problems, but still let you reap the benefits.
