Hello,

Could you help me to clarify the following idlsave data accessing issue?

Quick update: This seems to be an issue with IPython. s1['dn'] call works fine within regular python shell.

The AttrDict object tries to do item lookup from attribute access, but if the name is not found, it doesn't translate the error to an AttributeError. IPython looks for a particular attribute to control its input filtering behaviour, but it's not prepared for getattr() to raise a KeyError. IPython should probably catch arbitrary errors there. Feel free to file an issue so we don't forget about it:
