Emacs: +1. I've been using it for more than two decades. It will provide
syntax coloring (on the black background) for Python as well as other
languages and file types.

Perhaps he didn't but he should know that by opening a shell within emacs he

Long ago someone wrote that Emacs is an operating system that includes the
kitchen sink. A friend of mine working for Sharp Electronics did all his
work in Emacs, including email and web browsing (back when a text-based
browser was sufficient.)
