Look here for advice on editorsPython Editors

You may need some knowledge of Python basic practices. There is a wealth of information out there on all aspects of Python. When you are stuck, just search:

for example.

If your Python code won't work as you expect, post it here and I'm sure you will get friendly help.

You may want to look at wxpython vs TKinter (and some other GUI packages as well). Wxpython offers a native look and feel across different operating systems making it a great choice for cross platform desk applications. It also contains a rich set of widgets, with easy to use sizers, and there is no cost involved when using for commercial applications.

There are many packages to choose from, most will be included in the list of searches of Various GUI packages, most unbiased towards wxpython (in fact some won't even mention wxpython), but since wxpython is my chosen package, some will indeed be biased in that direction:
