(If you have a favourite Editor and want to share it : describe how to set it up here.)
====Kate====
[http://kate-editor.org/ Kate] works well as a general editor for Python. It also recognizes key words of Python and marks them in colours. Kate is a Linux KDE desktop program. Of course, it also works on gnome installations.
====Idle====
'''Idle''' is a handy simple editor that takes advantage of the interpreter features of Python. Often Idle comes with Python packages. Idle works well in Linux and other OS's, including the "dominant OS". If you install Windows version of Python, you will probably install from the same package Idle. One feature of Idle tends to confuse newcomers: Idle main window is NOT used for program writing, but for displaying the results. Notice that there is a Python tutorial, automagically installed with Idle on a Windows box. It is worth noting that the Tutorial gives quite extensive introduction into Python and is authored by the originator of Python: Guido van Rossum.
