I feel so sorry for I object to your professional > opinion;; As others already pointed out, it doesn't really matter which editor you use. Use the one you feel most comfortable with at the moment. Personally, I use Emacs' (Python Mode) to edit Python programs, and try out code snippets in the Python Shell, either from within a separate xterm, or, sometimes from within an Emacs shell buffer. If you're on Windows though, it's probably easier to simply use the editor that comes with IDLE. It's good enough for most cases and does syntax coloring too. :) -cpghost. -- Cordula's Web. http://www.cordula.ws/ ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

You are welcome to start learning both Python and Emacs at the same time, and delve deep at both. In fact, there are so many editors and programming languages available in FreeBSD you can spend an entire lifetime learning.

Nope. I don't care what it costs. I don't care even if I have to learn a complex editor for long time ... To tell truth, I really want to learn Python with a complex editor like Emacs.

Yes, eclipse is a big thing, but like Manolis said, it is worth learning a good environment.

Which one you know better NOW? If the goal is to study Python (assuming no previous experience), go along with the easiest for you. For starters, if you are using a GUI, go with Python's own IDLE environment. It is not "advanced", but neither are you at this point. And it does have some advantages (like immediate execution of commands to try out things). Spending time learning a complex editor like vi or emacs, will certainly pay up in the long run though. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
