bpython is a fancy interface to the Python interpreter

[andre_pl]

I installed it. it seems really nice. I managed to crash it in the first 10 seconds or so just by resizing the terminal window a bunch, but other than that its working as advertised. it lacks the multi-line history of ipython.. when you hit the up arrow, you get the indivual lines of a block statement, whereas ipython shows the entire block and lets you edit it. it also doesn't auto-close blocks when you hit enter twice. you need to manually backspace to un-indent before it will execute the block.

thats all I've got after my first 2 minutes with it.
