It???s difficult to learn anything with a body (such as a loop or a class or a function) with the built in REPL because you can???t edit lines you???ve already written.
However, I don't see what this has to do with running system console commands in a Python shell.
Python REPL is missing the following batteries: * Persistent history; * Syntax highlighting; * Clear separation (using, for example, different colors) between input, output and errors; * Paging of very long output/errors.
