Hi Sam,

Unfortunately the reasons that bpython works so well for you require
the code to be running all the time, just as in the standard python
interpreter.

Simply, here's what happens:

You type in a line of code, it's executed, the variables that you
created in this line of code then become available to the running
python interpreter. This allows bpython to inspect these objects and
provide the auto-complete etc. that you wanted.

So there is no way to have this "Run" button that you want - the code
has to run every time you hit enter, otherwise there will be nothing
to inspect.

Hope this explains, sorry to disappoint you. :)
