    Hello

    First of all thank you so much for this plugin, I love it.

    My main issue is using Ipython console instead of standard console. Is it possible to use Ipython instead of standard python console under eclipse?

    thanks

      Hi,

      Well, there are currently no plans for an IPython integration... But maybe the Pydev interactive console ( http://pydev.sourceforge.net/console.html ) could be improved... What exactly are you missing fro IPython?

      Cheers,

      Fabio

      Hi

      Well the main thing about Ipython is the robust auto completion it offers. It pretty much finds most of the possibilities. Ipython has not failed where Pydev console failed when it comes to completing certain imported modules(not standard distribution). I think Pydev console is fine but there is always space for room as usual :)

      thanks

        Hi,

        Well, can you create a bug-report for the cases where Pydev is not able to provide the completion you'd expect? (see http://pydev.sourceforge.net/faq.html#how_do_i_report_a_bug )

        Cheers,

        Fabio

          Ok I will

          You might need to install couple test modules though.

          thanks
