Pydev and Eclipse are an industrial strength solution.  You get
a full integrated IDE:

- An editor with spell checking, syntax highlighting, code completion,
templates, etc.
- An integrated visual debugger.
- Outline navigators
- Remote debugging.
- Refactoring support
- Navigation tools like 'go to definition'
- Revision control integration with just about every revision control
system on the planet.
- Unit test runner
- Interactive python execution
- Job management via Mylar plugin
- SQL editing via SQLExplorer plugin
- HTML/XML/Javascript development plugins
- Run external tools from within the IDE
- To do lists
- Multi-language development
- etc.
