Light Table does look like a very interesting project idea indeed.
Another editor worth mentioning and one I just started working with
after looking for a really long time is sublime text.
http://www.sublimetext.com/
While the editor itself is not written in Python.
It's using Python to write plugins that extends the base editor
functionality.
It's supper fast, runs on OS X, Linux and Windows.
Syntax support for all the popular languages.
Only cost $59 buck per developer and good for any and all OS's. ( 1
license, many OS's )
The author has taken some of the best ideas of many editors and rolled
them up all together into a really nice editor.
I would say it pretty much smokes all the other editors on the market
today and that is not an easy task to do.
While it's not open source, there is plenty of room in there to tweak
it to your needs.
Worth looking at if you are in the market for a new text editor to
write code in.
