+1 (from bpython's author) They just got a huge funding grant so IPython is definitely one to watch.

Hi there. It looks like IPython is definitely the better choice for you - I never wanted to add IDE-like features to bpython; I just wanted it to work the same as the regular shell…

Thanks for taking the time to give this info out - looks like you know more about bpython than me. ;)

I can vouch for us appreciating a bug report. :) I assume you're using an up-to-date version of bpython ? I remember dealing with this kind of stuff a lot in the past (curses is te…

This is one thing I actually have missed - if I'd known about all the nice readline key commands when I first started writing bpython I would've definitely included them. You're we…

You can configure it to store on disk (I believe this is the default). Why do people keep saying "last time I checked bpython didn't do X" when I can't even remember a time when we…

Hi there, I'm the author of bpython. First thing's first: I'm not sure when you last tried bpython, but simply running "bpython" will provide import completion for your pwd. As for…

Hi, sorry to hear you're having problems here - we made a lot of effort to make sure bpython can work in as many terminals as possible with as many colour arrangements as possible …

Hi, I don't have any knowledge of this kind of stuff so it would be very helpful if you could create an issue with some more info here: https://bitbucket.org/bobf/bpython/issues At…

The worst thing is it's been at least two years since somebody first asked about this and we still haven't done it, even though it's really, really easy. :) I'll try to get this do…

I didn't know about this - we actually have a GTK version that needs some tidying up and packaging before we actually release it (if anyone is interested in helping with this that …

Yeah, I don't use Django so I never did this myself, but somebody kindly did the work for us. :)

Actually you don't even have to do that - just alias "python" for "bpython" and bpython automagically instantiates the actual python if it is passed arguments, i.e. "bpython foo.py…

The main reason for this is actually that IPython has had (and, by design, in some cases still does have) the "problem" that code that works in IPython can work differently to the …

Hi. It's done using ncurses for the display (if you've ever worked with curses you can imagine how much of a headache the whole thing was). The introspection is done using the `ins…
