Im new. Will Komodo Edit 7 work for python?

Question

anonymous · Answer

What's wrong with IDLE?

But to answer your question, yes it does work with Python!

anonymous · Answer

Of course. And Komodo is nice, Chris2332, because IDLE is Python-specific, and if you want to work in the same IDE for multiple languages, you need one that supports multiple languages.

I think that emacs (or vi, if you must) is well worth a mention, though! (Not IDEs, but after a short learning curve, much, much more useful and flexible imo.)

I would add Notepad++. Supports multiple languages but it's just an editor that highlights code :)

^ I work in linux. ;) But Gedit is the usual equivalent to notepad, in case that helps anyone. Lots of available plugins, plenty of people actually customise it to behave like a proper IDE, and functionality is fine. You can probably write a little script to run the compiler in the same window if you're into that. I know there are written plugins to run the compiler from a hotkey, including IPython, which is worth looking into as well, if you're deep in python work.

Komodo is a great choice.
