Hi Michael,

Thanks a lot for you help! I've followed the steps, got the latest version
from cvs, and built from source. Also have ipython installed, and the ">"
command takes me to an ipython shell. I'm curious where I can take it from
here, as in 'where can I find a list of modules and methods', and 'how can
uses methods from as python script as opposed to from a command line'?

Thanks a lot in advance, and happy new year ;) Martin
