Hi!

I'm looking for a replacement for the standard interactive python shell. So 
far I've tried IPython and PyCrust. I liked both, but I'm not 100% happy 
with any of them. My main complaint about IPython is its missing support for 
multiline editing. To do multiline editing, it has to start an external 
editor, but then I lose all the nice features like autocompletion.

PyCrust supports multiline editing, but the autocompletion is not as good as 
in IPython. It also lacks many of IPython's advanced features, like 
pdb-integration, magic commands and custom macros.

Does anyone know of any other interactive python shells with good code 
completion and multiline editing?

-Tomas
