Hi Sullivan,

Just to let you know, pydev does all that you asked for (and if there's
something you're missing you might want to add a feature request to it:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=85796&atid=577332)

Some notes:
To change the indentation in 'blocks', just select the lines you want and
use Tab (indent) or shift+tab (dedent).
The 'conditional pause' you said is regarded as 'conditional breakpoint' in
pydev.

Cheers,

Fabio
