Re: Yes, this is a python question, and a serious one at that (moving to Win XP)

[Kenneth McDonald]

Perhaps you didn't read my original post? I'm being forced to consider Windows for reasons beyond my control. Given that I wanted a decent shell in Windows, I thought I would ask about Python shells because I think Python is a great language, and such a beast would give me the flexibility I want on a machine I don't want to use.  There is such a shell (though with a fifty page manual it'll be a little while before I start using it :-) ). End of matter, except for those who wish to discuss further Pythonish/shell related issues. Why this demands an OS comparison and an insult is beyond my understanding.

I used OSX for 4 years and had to go 100% Linux  because of my employer. OSX is the best of Linux and Windows--anybody who  can't see that has obviously not worked with these three types of operating  systems enough and is basing conclusions on limited information...Or is a  troll. The OP probably works for microsoft. James
