I use Emacs also. I would be interested in seeing your .emacs commands relating to Python.

I am one of those twisted individuals who happens to prefer Emacs for programming Python. I get all the goodies people have come to expect; code folding
(xtra Lisp in my .emacs), syntax highlighting, pylint integration (pylintrc+pylint.el), interpreter integration, SCC integration, diff/merge, object
browsing (ECB or plain speedbar), "interactive" abbreviations (msf-abbrev), etc.
+1 from another long-time twisted Emacser (although in the Python
context, "twisted" has other connotations 8^). I've been lazy about
incorporating language-specific extras, but it's still my IDE of choice
for Python, and I've used it for a long time as a general purpose power
tool: serious editing/reformatting of text files, directory
editing/searching, command line window (where the entire session is
available, searchable, editable, ...), and so on.
Unfortunately, Emacs does present a daunting learning curve for the
novice. I hesitate to recommend it to someone unless they're prepared
to invest some serious time to accumulate information from various
sources, study, and experiment. It certainly repays the effort, though.
