[IPython-dev] test new pyreadline version

[Jörgen Stenarson]

Hi all,

it would be great if some people could try out the new version of 
pyreadline. That is the new trunk version that now lives in svn at 
http://ipython.scipy.org/svn/ipython/pyreadline/trunk

I think it is best to check it out in a new directory and not try to 
update if you have used the older trunk version.

You will probably want to upgrade your configuration file to enable new 
interesting features:
- Keyboard selection for copy/paste
- Control-c can be used for copy (not enabled by default because it eats 
KeyboardInterupts)
- It can even be made to run on ironpython with a bit of patching of 
ironpython.

It works quite well for me on my machine but I exepect there are a few 
rough edges that will become apparent by other peoples use. So please 
test it and let me know what you find.

Unfortunately I will be gone on a business trip most of next week, so I 
think a joint release with the new ipython version will be difficult to 
achieve.
