Python IDE for MacBooks.
« on: December 02, 2012, 03:23:20 pm »
Hello EZ.

Phew, it's been a long time since i have been active in here. I have got a lot to do in the last couple of months, i am starting my own buisness with a friend, plus I'm making an e-learning platform for my school. So i haven't got the time i need, to be active.

Well i have chosen to start again, and i wan't to look into Python again. I have looked up pretty much every major programming language in my search for one i love (besides website development languages, i already know them) and i somehow always comes back to Python.

Well the problem lays in that i have recently bought a MacBook for web development, and i now miss the standard IDE which came with the Windows Installation. I know that Python is pre-installed on MacBooks and i can write scripts and such in the Terminal, but i want something closer to the old/windows IDE which comes with the Python installation. So what i'm trying to say is, that i want a good Python IDE for MacBook's.

(sry for grammatical errors, i just came home from a party...)

Same. Although if you're not new to python, then just go for Geany (dunno if it comes on Mac).
Geany is an awesome text editor for linux systems, like notepad++ for windows and on Linux I just use that.
On windows I tend to use Eclipse + PyDev.

http://docs.python.org/2/using/mac.html

After downloading and installing python you get a few additional things, like a folder called MacPython X.Y in the Applications folder. The Python-IDE IDLE is located in there.

Thank you all for your answers. I have deciced to go with the Python IDLE for smaller projects and for learning. When I'm going to make alrger projects i will properly go with Eclipse.

+1 to all of you.

http://www.sublimetext.com/2

In combination with: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/PdbSublimeTextSupport
and
https://github.com/vorushin/sublimetext_python_checker

Sublime 2 is an awesome text editor.

Wow, that text editor looks sweet. But i won't spend 59$ on it. I will properly check for a crack, because it looks very nice, and clean. Just what i'm looking for!

Would you mind giving me an update about your status change? Last time i were online you are Admin and now you are Global Moderator?

I honestly haven't bothered looking for a crack. The trial version has no limits and the only downside is that you'll get a popup from time to time asking to buy the full version. Same as WinRar.

As for my status there wasn't really a need for me to be admin anymore as I only check the posts in the programming section. My official job was server maintenance and IRC which I also haven't done in a while so I guess it's only fair I was demoted.

I hate textwrangler, it pissed me of and i'm never going to use it again. I really like the look and feeling of sublime 2, but i have troubles with installing the Python modules. I have no idea of how to get it to work, all help would be appreciated!

TextMate or TextWrangler or nano or Xcode or Eclipse would be my preferences.  I prefer Xcode and nano out of all of them though except in certain circumstances like writing Soar code.
I have dreamed a dream, but now that dream has gone from me.  In its place now exists my own reality, a reality which I have created for myself by myself.
