Which IDE ?

[Romain Guy]

    I offer my Java code editor: Jext. Is is open source (GPL) and offers an
embedded Python engine: Jython. You can run script, or exec them straight
from the editor. Jext supports colorization of code, auto indentation and
brings a class browser. Many parts of Jext are written in Python. See
www.jext.org/dev.html
