[Tutor] IDLE problems, recommend a good IDE ?

[Dave S]

Ive been learning on IDLE, which has been great but I have had 
occasional stability problems, which are a bit
disconcerting. It just locked up X on my gentoo system :-(  Anyhow Im 
back now -

Thanks to alt-sysreq-r I didn't have to re-boot.

Can anybody recomend a good python IDE, Something functional without too 
many gizmos !
Im running Gentoo 1.4 though I am happy to compile from source if needbe.
