[IPython-dev] [Fwd: color modification of ipython]

[Jörgen Stenarson]

Hi Alec,
I do not see this problem when running ipython-pyreadline under python 
2.5 on windows XP. So my question is what versions of ipython and 
pyreadline are you using? Perhaps it is only a question of upgrading one 
or the other.

Regards,
Jörgen
