Supposed to run on MacOS X: Eric3, Boa Constructor, DrPython (?), Leo (not exactly a conventional IDE) Maybe someday as well: BlackAdder It doesn't seem to me that there are no IDEs available for Python on MacOS X (or any other common system), but rather the opposite is true imho: There are so many different ones that in fact the development ressources get scattered instead of concentrated and in the end none gets the effort that would be required to make it "rock-solid" and "newbie-proof". And (from my outsider perspective as a "constant newbie") this seems to be somehow symptomatic for the Python "community" altogether: Usually for each "problem" to solve, there are several implementations competing with each other. Other examples besides IDEs: DB modules, web frameworks, ORMs... If for each given problem one implementation was chosen as "the official one" and efforts would be concentrated on "hardening" this one and merging in good features/concepts from the others as far as possible, newbies would maybe get less confused and could maybe also get more productive more quickly due to "better quality" of the "batteries included" in python...
