I'm looking for a good IDE to programming with Python, I found this http://ninja-ide.org/.
Did anyone try Ninja-IDE to programming Python or Django Apps, any suggestions about its use?
I personally use Netbeans for Python development mostly because I also use it for PHP and Java development. It works quite well for Python.
I prefer Aptana Studio 3, try it here!

I want to encrypt files before uploading into Dropbox using keys and some encryption standards in Python. How would I do that in code without using any third party tools?
I would suggest using a cryptographic library like pycrypto. Cryptography is hard, and doing it yourself is a sure way to have security holes.
Oh, and you should read this article by Bruce Schneier: Why cryptography is hard.
You may try using pyDes and/or rsa

I'm working on an open source project (Master of Mana, a mod for Civilization 4) which uses Python 2.4.1 for several game mechanics. Is there a chance for a performance improvement if I try to upgrade to Python 2.7.3 or even 3.3.0?
Related to this, has anyone done a performance analysis on different Python versions?
Most newer Python versions bring new features.
Existing code parts are probably updated as well, either for performance or for extended functionality.
The former kind of changes bring a performance benefit, but extended functionality might lead to a poorer performance.
I don't know what is the relationship between these kinds of changes. Probably you will have to do some profiling on yourself.

I'm working on a project that requires me to bind some C++ libraries to Python. Just today I found out the details about SWIG, and I got excited to use it, but the website:
http://www.swig.org/ seems to be down, and not just for me. I don't know if I just came on a wrong day, or if the project has disappeared. Does anyone know what happened?
I was able to get a copy off of a GitHub mirror repo, and from Homebrew, but I'm not sure I should invest time in using it if the project has been dropped.
Thanks, I hope this is the right place to ask.

I'm learning Linux administration and after that i'm going to learn programming on Linux using Python.
While i'm reading in a Linux Administration book, i came into Shell scripting chapter. I saw Bash language and i got dizzy. Let's say it's not one of the good-looking languages in my humble opinion.
And i said to myself. I'm gonna learn Python at the end.. Why not just use in instead of Bash ?
Now, is there anything wrong for a total beginner in shell scripting to use Python and not learn Bash at all ?
Python is not a shell scripting language, because there are basically no Python shells in production use. You can do everything in Python that you can do in bash, but it won't be as natural if you're fundamentally trying to write "shell scripts" in the classic sense--scripts that just invoke a series of other programs like mv and gzip and ssh and so on.

Is there an online interpreter like http://codepad.org/ or http://www.trypython.org/ which uses Python 3?
Answer
Since the question is closed, I give another answer here.
Wandbox offers online REPLs for many languages, including Python 2.x and 3.x, C++ and Java.
Ideone supports Python 2.6 and Python 3
I recently came across Python 3 interpreter at CompileOnline.
