Maybe that's a benefit! Since they have no IDEs (that I know of), a souped up text editor is the obvious choice. No room to get confused or frustrated with the plethora of almost-there IDEs.

I agree that that is probably the best approach to advocate until new tools are ready. As soon as my skills are sufficiently developed, I would like to address this problem.
For inspiration, ActiveState's python distribution on windows comes with a very tidy little IDE called PythonWin, which is very clean and easy to use. Also, the PythonCard people put their IDE together in a weekend, so I'm told, because all the necessary parts had already been ported to wxWidgets. (I made an attempt to bundle this using py2app, but gave up before I could get it to launch). I think Bob is on the right track getting the necessary components built first. After that, a new-user-friendly IDE should be a simple matter of putting the parts together ;)
