If you don't mind going commercial, then the WingIDE has been working very well for me. And it apparently has a VIM mode (and emacs). I'm an emacs guy, though, so I haven't tried out the VIM support.
Wing is based on GTK so the interface on Windows doesn't look so nice, or act so much like a native Windows app (F10 pops up menus -- weird?), but it works well. I tried a bunch of free IDEs first and gave up out of frustration after a while, too. Wing just worked for me and worked quite well. Documentation is pretty good too. www.wingware.com. Free trial so you can see if you like it first. --bb On 10/9/06, Eric Emsellem <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > thanks for the pointer to pida.
