I am very noob to this Python game and currently (I was using
ActivePython and then IDLE) I have been using a combination of
Notepad2 and the interpreter (Python 2.5) on a Windblows
X[crement]P[roblem] SP2 machine.

Get Notepad2 <url>http://www.flos-freeware.ch/notepad2.html</url>

I like IDLE but it seems to stop working after the first few times and
I would then re-install it and it would work a few times more.
ActivePython was cool but I could not find a version of it that used
Python 2.5 (as far as I can see, it only uses 2.4)

Notepad2 allows you to launch your script directly from the editor
(just like IDLE) and has configurable code highlighting. And it is
FREE.
