Wing IDE (www.wingide.com) does have auto-completion that dynamically
analyses your code as you write it.  I'm fairly sure it includes more
completion cases than any other Python IDE.

But it is a commercial product... You can try a free fully functional
trial here:

And some additional info on making sure auto-completion works right is
here:

If you try it, please send suggestions and comments!

Thanks,
