The necessity to face Python programming in a "extremely serious way" leads me to try to define a portable and powerful development environment. For long time I used IDLE for Python programming but there isn't enough feeling between us.
I need a consistent multiplatform python programming environment because I work on 3 different operating systems (Win, Mac, Linux) and 2/3 different distro for each of it (XP, Vista, 7, archlinux, debian, ubuntu, slackware...).
Mainly I love texmate but it works only on Mac machines. My first choiche is EMACS on Linux systems (ok, ok, it's not true: for sysadmin tasks I prefer Vim...) On Windows... damn! After years, I'm still looking for something making me effectively comfortable.
Today, Googling for a while, I found an interesting post on http://www.enigmacurry.com
It describe a solution based on:
On Archlinux, installing the tools is trivial by Yaourt:
> yaourt -S ropemacs
> yaourt -S emacs-yasnippet
I'm going to test these for a while: if I'm happy with it, I'll post my configurations files to make this setup portable
