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 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. It works on my N800. It is not an editor but a nice interactive python shell. To get an idea start with Quick Tips. 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 !!!
