I know! He is really asking a lot! Ultimately, I think if you are comfortable with vi, stick with vi. There are plenty of people who are using Python-specific configurations of vi to good effect. Personally, I like SciTE. Very small, very fast text editor based on the Scintilla editor component. It doesn't autoindent Python perfectly out of the box, but I wrote a patch for myself (which I'm happy to share with anyone who's interested). I also have dabbled with Geany, which someone mentioned earlier. I already don't use all the features of SciTE, so I'm nowhere near needing Geany's capabilities, but what I have seen of it I like, so I am comfortable recommending it. It also is very actively maintained and supported, if that makes a difference. John -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
