Not to stand still in the face of a potential net loss:
My recommendation is to include the recently released DrPython editor in the
Shells and Editors section of the page. I make that recommend based on the
fact that I have tried DrPython, and find it -as advertised - a clean and
simple environment for teaching. We might then link to the stated
inspiration of of DrPython, DrScheme of the TeachScheme project. The intent
of DrPython clearly being imitation as a form of flattery/respect - as per
Kirby's earlier point made.
Net gain.
