Name        : ipython
Product     : Fedora 18
Version     : 0.13.1
Release     : 3.fc18
URL         : http://ipython.org/
Summary     : An enhanced interactive Python shell
Description :

IPython provides a replacement for the interactive Python interpreter with
extra functionality.

Main features:
 * Comprehensive object introspection.
 * Input history, persistent across sessions.
 * Caching of output results during a session with automatically generated
   references.
 * Readline based name completion.
 * Extensible system of 'magic' commands for controlling the environment and
   performing many tasks related either to IPython or the operating system.
 * Configuration system with easy switching between different setups (simpler
   than changing $PYTHONSTARTUP environment variables every time).
 * Session logging and reloading.
 * Extensible syntax processing for special purpose situations.
 * Access to the system shell with user-extensible alias system.
 * Easily embeddable in other Python programs.
 * Integrated access to the pdb debugger and the Python profiler.

Update Information:

This update properly obsoletes old ipython packages and the console package doesn't require matplotlib anymore. This forces the user to install it on its own to use %pylab mode but has to advantage, that a headless server doesn't require X.
