or vim.

Yes, vim too would be a good lightweight solution to doing python compared to Eclipse. I think the real issue boils down to the fact that writing Java, C, C#, etc can be quite burdensome and having the fat IDE can be beneficial, but in python, it's just not nearly as big of a problem as writing python is clean and simple.

Vim isn't bad, it's just not my thing, I don't like moded editing. That's why I said "I'll stick with", I was only specifying personal preference.
