I currently use Linux Mint 17.2 - Cinnamon and I am currently learning Python version 3.4.3. I am also currently evaluating the Sublime Text 2 text editor.
Is anyone aware of a python debugger/IDE that is capable of inspecting objects/classes?
pan64,

Objects/classes can contain variables. I would like to be able to view the values of various variables within an object. So far idle3 will only show the address of the object. I will look more closely at PDB. However, my current impression of PDB is that it is not much better than inserting print statements in code. Additionally it looks like PDB requires the insertion of a lot of unwanted code. What I would like to have is a GUI debugger similar to Netbeans. Unfortunately Netbeans and Python don't seem to jell well together. Also it looks like Python support has been dropped in Netbeans as of version 8.1.

Just a comment: the only real interface I know is the debug interface python itself, that is used by pdb (and all the others).
