I'm in the process of moving python.org/editors/ here, please stay away from this page for a while. ;) Whether you want to quickly edit Python source code, write or debug whole Python programs, or use Python in IntegratedDevelopmentEnvironments, you have a pleasantly wide range of choices.

If you have anything to contribute -- e.g. configurations for editors, new editors, or opinion -- don't hesitate to edit or create pages.

There's an EditorConfigurationHowto available.
