I know what you mean ! I am an avid emacs user but when I am writing an
enterprise application in python I would like to have the features
[http://pydev.sourceforge.net/features.html] that Pydev provides to
make my life a little easier. Before I adopted Eclipse and Pydev I was
throwing out a lot of elisp macros for functions that Pydev routinely
provides.

Pydev has enabled support for Jython in it's latest release and it
looks pretty good. One other interesting feature that I use is ant
extensions for python [http://www.rpstechnologies.net/PyAntTasks.html].
These are pretty nifty when it comes to application deployment and unit
testing.
