yea, I've done that. It must be something subtle, as the colors and tab completion works.

Did you try installing readline for windows? http://newcenturycomputers.net/projects/readline.html


yea I've installed that and ctypes. The color and tab completion work,
its just that colored get displayed with black background, it almost works
so its very frustrating..



Did you try the following (from the manual)?:

Input/Output prompts and exception tracebacks


You can test whether the colored prompts and tracebacks work on your system interactively by typing '%colors Linux' at the prompt (use '%colors LightBG' if your terminal has a light background). If the input prompt shows garbage like:
[0;32mIn [[1;32m1[0;32m]: [0;00m
instead of (in color) something like:
In [1]:
this means that your terminal doesn't properly handle color escape sequences. You can go to a 'no color' mode by typing '%colors NoColor'.



You can try using a different terminal emulator program. To permanently set your color preferences, edit the file $HOME/.ipython/ipythonrc and set the colors option to the desired value.
