Comment (by Jeff Bauer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>):
It appears I was posting ticket #3386 shortly after this patch appeared.
Two minor details about my patch.
1. I think if the user specifies {{{--plain}}}, the PYTHONSTARTUP should
be ignored. My rationale is that you could have a user with a difficult-
to-debug problem resulting from unanticipated effects of startup code and
it would be easy to advise him/her to try to run the shell with
{{{--plain}}}. Indeed I found one of my ~/.pythonrc.py startup scripts
broke the Django shell. It could be argued this makes the shell behavior
more consistent wrt ''not'' invoking IPython.
2. The second difference is to {{{import user}}} unless {{{--plain}}} is
specified. This will automatically (and somewhat portably) invoke
.pythonrc.py if it's available in the user's home directory.
I'm not lobbying hard for either of my extensions, just presenting my
rationale. I'm happy that any patch is being accepted.
