Ok, someone has almost certainly asked this before, but I've been asleep at the wheel.

What do you use for python dev on the n800? I suppose I could use vi, but I would really really really rather not.

Thoughts?

I use Scite, just like on the desktop.

does it even work on the n800? I tried to install it and it says it's not compatible.

When I have to, I use nano to edit basic Python scripts.

You're far better off with Eclipse and PyDev --- you can even configure it to synchronize out to your N800 via SFTP.

I'd love to use Scite, pleasant editor... Couldn't find it on my quick look about... Repository?

I don't think we are looking at quick script editing. I need a good IDE to develop python apps on this thing. Source hilighting, auto complete, bracket matching, the whole bit.

I don't know, I only use it on my 770. Can't check either, maemo.org seems down ATM.

Well, SciTe does most, if not all of that. I don't call this sort of thing an IDE, just a good editor :-)

One hint more:
try IPython (http://ipython.scipy.org/moin/Documentation). It works on my N800. It is not an editor but a nice interactive python shell. To get an idea start with Quick Tips (http://ipython.scipy.org/doc/manual/node4.html). Dig it !

WRT SciTE: I have the Version 1.7l-2 installed.
Question: How do I reach all the Ctrl-Keys using the (really broken in this respect) OnScreenKeyboard ??
Nokia, please fix it !!!

IPython sounds interesting. there are versions for mac os, windows and cygwin. which to use for n800? or is it mainly os-independend since it is written in python itself?
