I've posted a previous question about IDEs and got some good feedback, thanks, but it does seem that everyone has their own favourite IDE -- in other words, no IDE was repeatedly recommended.
So, is there any data on the popularity of IDEs (most users), or is there a chart comparing the most popular versions. I'M NOT AFRAID TO SPEND SOME MONEY TO GET THE RIGHT IDE (but I don't want to change products once I've chosen). Also, can I use Sybase's SQL Anywhere with Python? I'm really only interested in programming for Windows XP. But I also really would like to find something very close to Sybase's patented datawindow technology -- it's a real time-saver. Finally, is there any (realistic) way to mix PowerBuilder and Python? For instance write a Python shell that calls PowerBuilder methods (or vice versa).
