Not necessarily. A text display widget within a GUI is very different 
from a text based terminal. Many graphical debuggers display data 
structures in a hierarchical model where you can expand/close the 
various levels etc.

But I think the OP is specifically wanting to avoid command prompts. The 
question is: Does he mean all prompts (including
Python's) or just the OS prompt? If its all prompts then it gets
much harder to find an IDE that will suit.
