Ipython

TODO:

These docs are a mess, and highlight the wrong info. To be reorganized. 

An alternative/featureful python interpreter.

• colours
• tab autocomplete
• auto-reload all before each run
• all of these features within a debugger
• readline support

You can also install kernels for other languages, allowing you to run them within it (ex: java).

Documentation

As of the move to IPython 5.0, the documentation is in the progress of being hosted on Read The Docs. IPython also incorporated some other projects, and their configuration is also independent of ipython's own.
