Raj: I prefer ViM as well. I have tried several IDEs: Idle, SlickEdit, Eclipse/PyDev, Stani's Python Editor (SPE). None of them manages multiple editing windows as well as ViM, and that is the feature I use most.
In a typical editing session I will have six or more editing windows open, accessing perhaps three different files. ViM handles all this effortlessly. It allows me to have many windows open at once, each one in the position and of the size that best matches my need at the moment. Resizing, opening and closing windows, displaying a new file in an existing window, chancing focus from one window to another. ViM handles these tasks far better than any of the IDEs I have tried.
