jpython --> jython

What readline support are you using? jython won't use readline support 
(as in python command shell), without the JNI wrapper (haven't got this 
working myself either).

The java command interpreter (i think partly due to missing readline 
support) doesn't allow nearly as much stuff, like line continuances etc 
as the cpython version. script's do work though (iirc)

I've just begun experimenting with jpython (just today). Hope to use 
it to replace velocity as the teacher-programmable component of the 
interactive learning environment at http://virtualschool.edu/jile.

My first problem is that tutorial chapter on strings isn't working 
right (on Linux 7.0 Redhat)
>>>	"Hello world"
"Hello world"

>>>	"Hello\
Syntax error: LexicalScanner Encountered <EOF> after \

This one is critical and preventing me from exploring deeper.

Second problem is that command history isn't working. readline is 
definitely installed but isn't being recognized by the installer.

Can someone please help? Sorry if these are faqs; I've not made it 
through all the docs yet.
