Netbeans now supports Python. After testing it vs Eclipse+PyDev, I definitely go for netbeans.

Netbeans should be designated as supporting multiple languages since its not just for Java any more (e.g., also supports C++, Python, Ruby, Groovy, PHP, and more). See http://www.netbeans.org.

I agree a great compiler but the licence for the IDE requires you to have a paid for licence of another product (or a trial licence which is limited to 30 days), but I believe that you can download the compiler, I remember doing that once and integrating it with the Dev-C++ IDE.

I was taking it from the link you gave in post #86,
