TextMate is very popular, it is my choice. For Python programs that
require console input, run them in Terminal. Personally I don't think
much of IDLE; it's chief advantage is that it is better than Notepad
or TextEdit.

I have Terminal set to use UTF-8 encoding and I can input and print
non-ascii characters in Python 2.5.2:
In [2]: s='ö'

In [3]: s
Out[3]: '\xc3\xb6'

In [4]: print s
ö
