Por mi parte pase bastante trabajo para encontrar un IDE en linux (ubuntu) que me satisfaciera, buscando y buscando encontre un entorno llamado ERIC para el cual hay seguidores y retractores, pero en la forma que lo estoy usando me apunto en el primer bando. aqui te van algunas de sus características:

eric is a full featured Python IDE written in PyQt using the QScintilla
editor widget. Some highlights

* Any number of editors with configurable syntax highlighting, code
folding, auto indenting and brace highlighting.
* Integrated Project Management facility to organize your projects. The
project browser shows all source files, all forms and all translations
each on its own tab. The source browser has built in class browsing
capabilities.
* Integrated and full featured debuggers for Python and Ruby.
* Interactive shells for Python and Ruby.
* An explorer window for walking through your directory structure with
built in class browsing capabilities for Python files.
* Variable windows that display local and global variables in the
current scope while debugging a program.
* An integrated interface to the Python Module "unittest".
* An integrated help viewer to display HTML help files. Alternatively
you can choose to use Qt-Assistant to view help files.
* Display of the UI in different languages.
* The capability to start Qt-Designer and Qt-Linguist from within eric4.
* The ability to compile Qt-Designer forms, to produce Qt-Linguist files
and release them from within the IDE.

creo que es mejor que un editor de texto. Suerte.
