Python IDE’s

I’ve been lamenting the lack of a good IDE for Python for a while now. I’ve tried a few – PyDev and Sun’s Python version of NetBeans, and a couple others. None was able to hold my interest for various reasons. One critical feature of an IDE is refactoring support, so I’m looking again with that specific criteria in mind. So far here’s a list of python IDE’s -

• ERIC
• SPE
• emacs w/ROPE
• PyDev
• eclipse
• TextMate
• Coda

This list will evolve – so far that’s off the top of my head, with the tools I’m least familiar with at the top.
