Emacs is all you'll ever need.. but if all you're used to is MS tools
(that's where I started too), then emacs maybe take a bit of getting used to
(http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/windows).

On the simpler side, if all you are worried about right now is an editor,
there is a great shareware editor (than can be easily configured to python)
called EmEdit available at http://www.nifty.ne.jp/forum/femsoft/index-e.htm.
I used this for awhile for python, perl, TCL and any other scripting or
general text editing I did before I discovered the wonderful world of emacs.

Just thought I'd thow in my 2 cents.
