Do you mean keywords or modulenames/ classname that are builtin and from stdlib? colorization easily customized in Textmate, you can change color/ bold/italic /underlining of 32 categories of things (some not relevant to python, and italics not really that useful)): Comments, keywords, numers, user- defined constants, builtin consts, vars, strings, string interpolation, preproc'r line, preproc'r directive, func/meth name, class name, meth param, meth args, etc. In komodo, you can choose text color/font size/bold/italics (but not underline)for python for:bracebad, bracehighlite, classes, comments, control chars, default, functions, identifiers, indent guides, keywords,line numbers(?), numbers, operators, stderr/in/out, stringeol, strings. probably you can do similar things in vim,emacs,eclipse, wing, I haven't checked. Being able to bold/underline (Not relying solely on color) means you use fewer colors. Much easier on the eyes. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
