Everything good about Python except GUI IDE?

Requirements for what I have in mind:

 1. It would have to be and feel like real Python.

 2. External commands should be available as callable Python functions.

 3. Functions/commands should return streams. (Generators, maybe?)

 4. Pipelines should have an intuitive syntax (but still be valid
    Python).

Requirements 3 and 4 apply to regular Python code as well.
