#2I see BPython has a list of alternative pretty interpreters listed on its page. iPython (that I know of) and DreamPie (that I don 't know of).
http://bpython-interpreter.org/alternatives/
Can anyone say how they all compare to each other?

Awesome.

#8I'm finding it extremely buggy. For example - pressing F8 when no code has been entered yet causes a TypeError. I will post this on the mailing list but considering it's an old (~4yrs?) project I'm surprised such issues haven't been fixed.

#9Also see iPython. Not as pretty but has an astonishing range of capabilities.

#10It's the first thing i install in my virtualenvs. Much better then the standard interactive console and just works out of the box.
If you don't want more then tab completion, docstrings and a working command history between sessions it is great!
For more stuff, see ipython.
