In solidarity with sibling comments, I also want to say that IPython has been pretty much my default shell for about a decade now. Auto completion, magic functions (paste, edit, pylab come to mind), auto reload, nice colors out of the box... it’s become a beloved piece of software to me over the years. Back in college, being introduced to IPython almost made it seem like Matlab wasn’t doing enough! I’m gushing a bit, but honestly IPython has solved many a problem for me, and I want to say thanks.
