We are proud to present Linux-Tip Europe. This page is designed to provide the Linux users community (not only in Europe) with news and articles that are of interest to them. It works by allowing members of the community to submit news and articles relating to Linux hardware and software. This same community can then decide what tips should be promoted based on what they consider to be the most important or interesting to the community by voting stories up and down. Stories that receive enough votes are promoted to the Linux-Tip Europe homepage. Bookmark and Share

Wednesday, 01 September 2004
Being a Python developer is one of my many roles. I believe GUI-based IDEs are effective, so I have looked at a number of products, both commercial and open-source, that support Python. I chose the open-source eric3 IDE by Detlev Offenbach. It is written specifically for Python, and it uses PyQt bindings and the QScintilla editor widget. I find the eric3 IDE to be a delight. Figure 1 is a screenshot of a project showing eric3 version 4 beta, the version I currently use.

Installing eric3 is trivial, assuming you have a matching Qt installation already present. Download the eric3 tarball, untar it and then, as administrator, run python install.py. Otherwise, you need to install Qt, sip and PyQt first. The README file is quite clear on the steps you need to follow.
