sorry, I gotta run now but here's some info:

http://ipython.scipy.org/doc/nightly/html/config/overview.html

In short, my ipython_config.py reads:

import sys
c = get_config()
c.Global.exec_lines = [#'import sys, os, math',
                       #'ip = get_ipython()',
]

if sys.version_info[:2] >= (2,6):
    c.Global.exec_files = ['extras.py']

if sys.platform=='win32':
    #c.InteractiveShell.colors = 'NoColor'
    pass

c.InteractiveShell.colors = 'LightBG'
c.InteractiveShell.colors = 'Linux'
c.InteractiveShell.confirm_exit = False
c.InteractiveShell.readline_omit__names = 2
c.AliasManager.user_aliases = [
     ('cl', 'clear'),
     ('clk', 'rm -f *~ .*~'),
     # color ls
     ('d', 'ls -F -o --color'),
     # ls symbolic links
     ('dl', 'ls -F -o --color %l | grep ^l'),
     # directories or links to directories, both as alias ldalias
     # and alias ldiralias  in case users load the real alias ldalias  linker
     ('dd', 'ls -F -o --color %l | grep /$'),
     # things which are executable
     ('dx', 'ls -F -o --color %l | grep ^-..x'),
 ]

I hope this helps,
