A Python IDE idea - looking for input

[Jeffrey Drake]

This is no guarantee such a product would be started, just looking for
input on a potential future product.

The model of the ide would come directly from Visual Basic. This
includes such things as project manager on the side. The project
manager would be such that you could do advanced things like in MSVC.
It would support such things as 'Make EXE file' using py2exe, support
debugging just like vb does - example, put break points on valid
lines. Have auto list members. Support an immediate window where you
can put together python statements almost like you can in the
interpreter now. With exception that it would also allow you to
perform operations within the scope of the paused program (assuming
this is possible).

Differences from vb would include no form editor (i don't see one
needed to begin with).

The language I would think of using for such a project would be c++
with wxWindows.

Another feature that might work well is to allow this program to be
used as an editor for python code like vb allows for msoffice apps
(and other apps that buy vba).

Any ideas welcome,
