Hi,
Regarding Eclipse, it might be worth using it, but making Eclipse use EdSharp 
as your Python editor. This way, you can use Eclipse to keep your project files 
together and EdSharp to write your code and take advantage of the accessibility 
stuff, like the indentation sounds. For other languages, the indentation thing 
isn't such an issue. I say this, though, without having investigated PyDev 
thoroughly. It may possibly use the Eclipse code formatter, which would make 
Eclipse fix your indentation problems. But that still may not help with 
listening to the logic of your programs.

So, if anyone who is using Eclipse and PyDev happens to grab my Eclipse JAWS 
scripts, please tell me if PyDev breaks them in the editor.

Thanks.

Jim

If you are already familiar with Eclipse, I'd use that. If not I don't
think PyDev is the friendliest environment for getting comfortable with
Eclipse generally, but it might be worth a try.
