Default Python IDLE

Hey guys. Can anyone give me a little guidance on getting a good Python IDLE going on FreeBSD? I can't seem to figure it out I have it on my netbook running Linux but that was pretty easy to set up and I'm a total novice with FreeBSD.

I'm guessing you mean IDE? What are you looking for? I find vi/emacs are more powerful then IDEs like Eclipse, but to each his own. vi is in the base system. If you wanted emacs/eclipse you could do
% cd /usr/ports/editors/emacs && sudo make install clean or % cd /usr/ports/java/eclipse && sudo make install clean.

Integrated DeveLopment Environment. That's how it is on my netbook running Linux. It's a shell, I guess, that you can write code in and execute with rather than typing python in the terminal and doing it that way.

OK, now I realize that IDLE is a specific IDE for python development and it's included in devel/python27.

Yeah, absolutely. If you want an X11 editor similar to vi, there is gvim. The newer emacs with daemon mode works well for switching between the x11 client and the console.
