I've been using Python's IDLE for all of 45 minutes now, and I already hate it. It crashes spontaneously for no apparent reason, and takes ages to compile/run when it does manage to run. I need a new IDE. I've just tried PyScripter, but I got an error when I ran: "Python could not be properly Initialized, we must quit.". Which IDE's do you guys use and suggest? I don't need anything fancy, just something free with simple debugging. Thanks! |

That's a lot to ask for, really. I suggest you go for nothing more than syntax highlighting, and debug yourself. It's worth it, trust me. At any rate, debugging is half the fun! Get notepad++ and the python highlighter (does it come with it? I dunno) and you should be fine. Seriously. Don't bother with a debugger until you can debug most issues on your own. Debuggers are cheat codes, and you haven't earned them yet. |

I got notepad++, and now I'm trying to figure out how to run programs with it. Thanks for the tips! |

I'm not sure though. |

Try Wing IDE. Very easy to use and set up. |

I don't usually program in Python other than small scripts here and there, so Sublime Text + Terminal works fine for me. |

I use Portable Python, which comes with PyScripter, also using Codecademy's python stream, and IDEOne as my pastebin (has a built-in python compiler) |

Guys, he already has what he wants. No need to continue (which I do sometimes continue it without knowing, so don't worry to much). |
