I'm already playing with pycrust because I actually need a visual class
browser for a large code I didn't write and which I'm trying to understand.
I'd suggest you download ipython
(http://www-hep.colorado.edu/~fperez/ipython/) and play a bit with it.  It
will probably make further discussion and interaction much smoother if we both
familiarize a bit with each other's stuff, and it shouldn't take you more than 
a few minutes to get it going.

I think that ipython and pycrust would really complement each other very well, 
and that they would make a great shell for scientific computing work.  I hope 
we can get good work out of this.

I'm already subscribed, and I also sent this message to the list to get things 
moving there.  If others are also subscribed, we can probably continue the 
discussion there.  I still sent this message with personal copies in case not 
all are in.

Best regards,
