Living as I do in the JavaVerse, a fancy IDE is essential for not dying of verbosity. Eclipse is my default, I don't know how configurable it is. Variable names are highlighted as being static, non-static or local to a method, but there's no type highlighting beyond that.
When I did lots of python work, well, it's dynamically typed, so no type highlighting there.
I'm not convinced that type highlighting is universally useful, given dynamic typing, type heirarchies etc.
