NINJA-IDE (from: "Ninja-IDE Is Not Just Another IDE"), is a cross-platform integrated development environment (IDE) designed to build Python applications.

It provides tools to simplify Python software development and handles many kinds of situations thanks to its rich extensibility. It is being very actively worked at by its developers.

Features

Some of the current features of the IDE are:

• Common functions such as: file handling, find in files, go to line, tabs, automatic indentation, editor zoom, etc.
