I usually use the Leo-editor (https://github.com/leo-editor/leo-editor
or PyPi). It's wonderful once you get it figured out but it's got a
real learning curve.

Vim 2% of the time, PyCharm (with VI plugin) 98% of the time.

what editor do you (all) use to write Python code? (i use Vim)





yesterday (?) i started noticing this with Bing search ....
e.g. i type [synonym rich] whch gives several synonyms,
and so (next) i try to replace [rich] by
something like Affluent

so i try to hit [<-] to erase [rich]
but i can't... the [text entering] box is frozen.

so i give up and go to Google.

I've used vim (gvim to be precise) for years and that has been my editor
of choice for Python. Lately I've been using Spyder.

As background, most of my Python work is with Esri's ArcPy. Until recently
it was 2.7 but they've moved to 3 and package it with conda. The package
manager is integrated into ArcGIS Pro, the desktop tool for managing GIS
data and Spyder is a relatively easy install into a virtual environment.

I won't discuss the conda system or Spyder but I can either go with the
flow or spend a lot of time fighting it.

I had never heard of Leo before. This is a real rabbit-hole. Thanks for
sharing this interesting editor.

There's also a Google Group: https://groups.google.com/g/leo-editor

Leo does dog-fooding: Leo's own code base (hundreds of Python files) is
contained and developed in a Leo file (called an "outline"). I just
this afternoon searched it to find where a particular core method is
called in less than a second (two places, it turned out). Leo lets you
break down a program or other chunk of code into whatever pieces you
like, not being limited to modules, classes, methods, and functions, and
to rearrange them pretty much at will.

Much of Leo's documentation is in Sphinx documents that are authored and
managed in Leo outlines - it's an excellent documentation tool.

More of how I use it is at

I watched a couple of the intro videos and saw the dog-fooding. Leo is a
total paradigm shift for me. Thanks for links, I'll be sure to check
them out.

Good luck! Please contact me or the Google Group if you need help or

The community has submitted some answers to that question here (two
lists, some entrants don't fit neatly into one or the other):

https://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonEditors
https://wiki.python.org/moin/IntegratedDevelopmentEnvironments

There are a *lot* if you want to rathole... :)
