If your fingers are fluent in Vim, it is hard to see how any text editor could be faster. I usually have both programs open in the same directory, and between them. Properly configured, they will give you most of the features of an IDE with a minimum of overhead. In addition to Eric and PyScripter, I would like to see a ShowMeDo on Leo. I have been experimenting with it over the last couple of weeks, and can see how it might be very useful to manage large projects. Leo is written in Python, and is primarily designed for coding in Python, but can be used for other projects as well. It uses an outline structure that is almost self-documenting. It is hard to do justice to it in a few sentences. You really need to see it in action. Even though there are some excellent tutorials, a ShowMeDo could really flatten the learning curve. Perhaps you might ask Ed Ream, the author, to contribute. I use Vim and IPython for most normal Python coding.

I found it as the best tool for development of larger libraries thanks to great project management facilities. Eric is based on Qt and Scintilla editor and works really smooth in my KDE environment. http://www.die-offenbachs.de/detlev/eric.html I can recommend Eric3 as a mature, highly customisable IDE with many features (the amount of features is comparable to WingIDE and Komodo).

A review on that would be great. I switched from SPE to PyScripter, which seems to be more actively developed. A review on that would be great.

Maybe someone experienced will show me more of it than I know. .. [1] gvim (and cream), moo, the default culebra, and someone on the google group mentioned getting emacs embedded Hi,
