However, i still can't get the intellisense thing to work across files/modules that I import. I can only get the list of attributes from the file i'm typing on....

I don`t get it. Why change?

All the time that you spent learning and tweaking the ide about how it worked you could have used it studying the API.

It saves me time in a sense that I do not need to open up the file, or refer to the API. I don't/can't memorize each method in a project that is so huge.

I keep "Python Command Line" open on the side.

(Toggle Plain Text)

>>> import os
>>> dir(os) 
[a list of all the methods of os here]
>>> help(os.system)
[description of function, list of parameters, and any additional notes that were left]

It may not be as fast, but it's perhaps even more useful.

http://pythonide.blogspot.com/ is the main site, download links are on there somewhere.
Downloads are also available from Sourceforge:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/spe/

Thats one of the reasons I like SPE, it keeps an interactive session open in a pane of the IDE, which is also handy for testing code snippets before you slap 'em in place.

Hm...this is useful for Python's own set of commands, but not for the project i'm working on, which around 10-20 people are working on it. Not to mention no documentation for it, but that's a different issue.

I was wondering do you use intellisense or you aren`t sure yet.

Intellisense also applies to how much later a response to a post might be helpful....

I find the DrPython IDE very stable, and you can download a code completion plugin that offers a dropdown list of choices. For instance if you use 'import Tkinter as tk', the moment you type 'tk.' the list of choices comes up and you can double click to select a choice.

Pyscripter works well, but on occasion sinks.

I've tried Komodo and loved it. You can choose to run your program in a separate console window if you want, or you can choose to run it in the same window at the bottom of the IDE, similar to most Java IDE's. But it costs about $295.00 to purchase.
