I've been learning some python in the last few months, I've been using Codeacademy so I haven't really had to set up anything to write it.

Now I've been trying to actually use another program, but I've been having problems in actually starting.

I downloaded Sublime text 2 (and 3), but every time I try to write a line of python and run it it just gives me bullshit errors.

All the tutorials to setup Sublime text just give me a bunch of plugins.

Does anybody have a good guide to actually make a simple program? I'm basically just looking to make a simple adventure game to see how much I learned.

Sorry for the retard thread, I just can't figure it out. so far I've just had to use Notepad++ to make shit on the internet, never had to actually do this.

Sure, I learned it the same way, but I started with learn python the hard way, THEN I went to codecademy.

So look for learn python the hard way, and follow the steps to installing and configuring python there.

Sublime text 3 is good. What OS are you in?

notepad++ worked when I made helloworld.py a week ago.

You don't need a compiler or an IDE to work with python.

Welcome to the helpdesk. Your ticket number is #22536. :)

I just downloaded Sublime Text 3 here:

http://www.sublimetext.com/3

I'm in Windows 8.1. I downloaded the "portable version" which is just a ZIP of the files that can run stand alone and don't require installation to run. The installer version should behave exactly the same way.

What's the problem you're having? It supports python right out of the box. File > Save as... > Save as Type: and choose Python. It has text highlighting and everything. Can you get a simple "Hello world" to work?

Just use emacs.

C-c C-p to open a python shell window while in python mode.
