The Python documentation recommends editors that can be used on Unix:
https://docs.python.org/3.5/using/unix.html#editors

If the intent is to advertise very excellent IDEs (as Geany and Komodo Edit are listed), I suggest that PyCharm Community Edition (https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/download/) be added to the list.

It is free, has a very powerful static analyzer, comes with PEP8 checking installed by default, supports type hinting, ... (https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/features/)

Thanks for the report. It would be better to refer to https://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonEditors and https://wiki.python.org/moin/IntegratedDevelopmentEnvironments instead of maintaining duplicate and outdated lists.

Berker, I agree with you.  The doc section is woefully incomplete and unix-specific.  It probably dates back to when Python only ran on unix.

> The doc section is woefully incomplete and unix-specific.

That might be because the doc section is called "Using Python on Unix platforms".

The two links for VIM and Emacs are useful for Unix developers that happen to use these editors, but I agree that we should link to the wiki instead of having other links to specific editors.
If we want to recommend a few specific ones, we could list their names so that people can find them in the wiki.

I would want to work on this, for 2 days. 
This is going to be my first contribution to python, please bear with me if i make some silly mistake.

Looking forward to your support. Thank you

Mention Pycharm community edition, and provide link to the wiki

Hm, maybe the list should just removed and only the link to the wiki preserved? Agreed that the list here feels outdated. And updating it is always going to be a political game (e.g. why isn't Wing IDE listed?)

Thanks for the feedback :)
As suggested, I removed all other IDEs and just link to the wiki.

Hmm.. not sure if I did this correctly. I uploaded another patch file, is this right? Or, how can I edit my original patch?
Thanks.

You did the right thing. Check out the "review" link.

Thanks for the patch. I left some comment on Rietveld: http://bugs.python.org/review/26149/#ps18589

Thanks for the feedback, Berker :)
I added some introductory statements, and added link to https://wiki.python.org/moin/IntegratedDevelopmentEnvironments

I'll be open to other suggestions as well

Thanks.

Forgot to change the title to Editors and IDEs.
Updated now.

Thanks.

ping :)

Thanks for the feedback, Berker.
I updated the patch as suggested.
