I'll point out (again?) that IDLE is improving all the time thanks to 
Terry & Co.  This explains why http://legacy.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0434/

Strangely I've been using Eclipse and Pydev since porting Java to Python 
some time ago, it really simplified the process.  However I'd been 
thinking of changing and picked IDLE because it's there.  Perfectly 
adequate for my current needs.
