[James Simmons]

Mike,

The book "Make Your Own Sugar Activities!" has some suggestions on
development environments and many other topics:

I have use Eclipse with the Python plugin for developing Activities
myself, and like it.  Usually I use Eric.

What do you use as a Python editor- I was hoping to use eclipse but I have used a basic introduction to VIM in my classes so it can be anything. I played around in the SugarLabs Pippy editor but I was hoping that I could write another machine and import.

If I'm going to be making large source changes or starting something new I'll often just work on my Mac using Xcode (my source editor of choice) and scp the Activity directory over to various Sugar builds for testing.
