i've been a moderate fan of ipython; it's the ipython notebook that changed everything for me. i can have everything inline: syntax-highlignted code, markdown, dynamic plots, and LaTeX equations. (some examples: http://nbviewer.ipython.org/github/ipython/ipython/blob/master/examples/notebooks/SymPy%20Examples.ipynb http://nbviewer.ipython.org/github/ipython/ipython/blob/mast...) what's more, you can share you work as a static .ipynb document or dynamically via a server (rather than your localhost, which is the default).
