I use IPython as my main Python shell replacement (this also includes Django development, debugging - (i)pdb, etc.) and Dreampie when writing a prototype or "playing around".
Earlier quoted context omitted.
I recently started using IPython, also with a comparable feature list: http://ipython.scipy.org/moin/ Does anyone know off the top of their head which of these is the most active?
I suspect IPython is. I know a number of people using ipython, but I've never heard of the others before today. Ipython is widely used by the scipy crowd, at the very least.
import ipdb
ipdb.set_trace()
I have tested it and it's not bad but the IPython (with "save history" & "virtualenv" plugin) + Dreampie combination is still a lot better and way more powerful.
