Okay, sorry for the repeated posts, but it turns out that my problem with copy/pasting goes beyond the symbol list issue: It's annoying that IPython is printing out the symbol list, but a bigger problem is that copy/pasting creates syntax errors (presumably due to copy/pasting breaking the indentation). %paste won't work at all (I suppose since Tkinter isn't included). %cpaste works, but it still prints out the symbol list after print commands, and it raises syntax errors of its own. The difference is, instead of having to do with indentation, the errors are really bizarre and buggy and taking issue with perfectly acceptable syntax. For instance, I had some SyntaxErrors that complained about things like: if low < 2^32: The interpreter decided to move on to another error once I tried wrapping the right side of the comparison operator (or assignment operator, on other lines) in parentheses: if low < (2^32): Now, it's complaining about the following: alist.append(low) Where "alist" is a defined list of values, and low is a defined value. There's not too much I can do to "fix" that one. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
