To be honest, I just use Kate (or any other basic text editor) and the command line for my SymPy work. Python code is usually clear enough that you don't really need an IDE (unlike eg. Java, where you can't really reasonably remember all the loooong names of everything). If I need debugging, I do it the oldschool way - adding print statements - but there wasn't really a need. There's also the python debugger, you can invoke it with "python -m pdb <script>" and it's pretty powerful as I remember (but again, I only used it a handful of times during my whole GSoC project). -- Vladimir Perić -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sympy" group.
