Thanks for taking time to explain things a bit with ipython. I have heard rave reviews about ipython, especially from the scientific python community, where they use it a lot. It just that, I am using the interpreter shell less and only for specific purposes, then ipython is something I am not getting hooked to. But your mail is a helpful reference for many to try out. As I write, I think, I use interpreter mostly for doing. dir(module), help(module) or help(module.function) and sometimes a 3 line snippet. Anything more than that has found its way to the editor. bpython provided a tab completion feature and the help on braces (like intellisense), that was cool too. It was developed using rlcomplete thing. Thanks again, -- Senthil _______________________________________________ BangPypers mailing list BangPypers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/bangpypers
