Alan,
I have been using ipython for the last few months. I am barely
touching teh surface of what it is capable of.
there are of course silly shortcuts like so:
In [16]: def foo(x):
print x
....:
....:
In [18]: def bar(x, y, z):
print x, y, z
....:
....:
In [20]: ;foo 1 2 3
-------> foo("1 2 3")
1 2 3
In [21]: ,bar 1 2 3
-------> bar("1", "2", "3")
1 2 3
note the ; and , that auto quote for you.
The main reason I like it is that is leaves me real shell access and
auto complete for filepaths and such.
I use it with the zope debugger, too.
