Question

Installed python today- I'd prefer to use an IDE, any suggestions?

Answer 1

The python IDLE doesn't work- it has an error like this:
```
IDLE can't bind to a TCP/IP port, which is necessary to
communicate with its Python execution server. This might
be because no networking is installed on this computer.
Run IDLE with the -n command line switch to start without
a subprocess and refer to Help/IDLE Help 'Running without
a subprocess' for further details.
```

And after installing eclipse for python according to this tutorial:

when I go to install software in eclipse, an 'Unable to read repository'
message occurs.

What IDE's do you guys use?

Answer 2

Hey Woodrow,
I am using just plain inkscape. I think its best for you to use a few different tutorials until you find one that works the best and it compatible with your computer settings. This is what I did last year for school.

Answer 3

Here is what I made with inkscape last year

Answer 4

cool designs! Thanks for the suggestion- I'll be sure to try inkscape out.

Answer 5

I have used pyscripter in the past, but I would use eclipse for any significantly large project.
