Hehe... I know what you mean. I have been using VIM for all of my coding (and much Much MUCH more) for over ten years now, and having the power of an advanced text editor under your fingertips, where you do not have to think about how to do the editing, just what you want to do, in unparalleled. However, I have seen a python IDE in action, with a built-in object explorer, where for any object it lists the available methods/ properties on the fly, and since I am just learning python this seams rather attractive. My friends also keep on telling me that once I experience 'refactoring' in a modern IDE, I will not want to go back. I am torn between all the benefits that modern IDEs seam to offer and the simplicity and power of a good text editor like VIM (or Emacs). Before "getting enlightened" and buying a Mac I looked into Eclipse, and it seams to be promising a balance between the two - it support advanced 'IDE' functions for many languages including python, and there is a 'VI' editing plug-in available (there is also an Emacs plugin for Eclipse). I am yet to see how well Eclipse plays on a Mac.
