If you are using ipython on Windows then you will have made sure you have Gary Bishop's readline library as instructed in the ipython install directions found at: http://ipython.scipy.org/
Even if you use the standard commandline tool, installing readline makes the basic command line a lot easier to use. (For some reason, I much prefer it to IDLE or any of the other GUI-wrapped interpreters.) I could not find a list of the keyboard commands that readline supports, so I generated: http://fsinnovations.net/share/keymap.pdf NOTES: You can checkout the script that generates this at: http://fsinnovations.net/share/readlinekeymap.py This uses Ken Seehof's Python Cookbook recipe found at: http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Python/Recipe/81982 I am sure it can be improved, but it was easy. By the way, it generates LaTeK. To install readline, get it at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/uncpythontools. You will also need the ctypes library by Thomas Heller, found at: http://starship.python.net/crew/theller/ctypes -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
