[Edu-sig] DrPython, redeaux

[ajsiegel at optonline.net]

I had checked in with DrPython early in its development cycle, and
I know it to be prominently listed in the edu-sig page write-up
of Python IDE's for with an educational slant.

I had the opportunity to re-acquaint myself with it and its
progress recently.

I think it worth mentioning here for those who have not had the 
opportunity to have a look, that it a very actively developed project, 
led by folks working in the educational field.  

Well done, the essentials one would hope to find simply laid out, stable 
(even runs VPython scripts flawlessly), easily extensible in Python through
an accesible API.  

Relies on and leverages off of what is available in wxPython,

Developing an active user community, including something brewing with it
at the U of Toronto.

I am concluding that it to be the IDE I will recommend for use with PyGeo.
