Anyways, I've recently downloaded Python 2.4.2, as well as the latest Pygame.org build and Panda3D 1.1.0. I've been reading through some of the tutorials from their sites too but I've come to ask... What program should I use to write my .py files? Does anyone out there have a prefered editor? I use DevC++ for my C++ stuff, ColdFusion Studio 5 for my HTML, ASP and ColdFusion stuff, but neither of these have color coding and what-not for Python. Any suggestions? ------------------ http://www.jeremysouthard.org

Plus some really useful plugins. ------------------ Mat 5:6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. [VoHW] (Help needed) [Blog] - Truedisciple (mp3)

I'll check it out and see how it works. Thanks again! ------------------ http://www.jeremysouthard.org
