I've been looking for a good python IDE but only managed to find a couple from here: http://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonEditors. If you guys know of any others please post.

E: They should be free and support python 2.7(windows or cross platform)

I know eclipse has python support. I've never used it, but I liked using eclipse for Java.

Windows: I always used IDLE, always worked pretty well for me.
OS X: Coda hands down. Such a great editor.

Stay away from the python plugin + netbeans...
I like PyDev for ecplise. Komodo Editor is good if you manage to find a way to run code from the editor.

So far, it looks like im going to use pyscripter and SPE, but im looking for an ide with code completion, and things like ctrl click a function name and it takes me there(similar to simba)--does spe have this?. Also it would be good if it has WYSIWYG gui design capability.

E: would be nice to have a line by line debugger sort of thing(am i making sense?)

spe has as good autocompletion as you're likely to get with python. I'm unsure as ctrl click since i never use it.

and debugger it the python debugger in all ide's afaik, so it wont vary no matter what you use.
