  Ok, goto http://ipython.scipy.org/ there in the first section "Quick 
links" you have an item called "ViewCVS", click in that link and you will 
be redirected to 
http://www.scipy.org/site_content/remap?rmurl=http%3A//scipy.net/cgi-bin/viewcvsx.cgi/ipython/

  That page complains with a 404 error.

   Is this clear?

  I found the link that started the first thread quite interesting:
  http://dkbza.org/tmPython.html

  I advise other LyX fellows to take a look to it.

  Multiwavelets, well I only know wavelets and Chad said something about 
having that wavelets python package released some day, last Scipy and still 
nothing. :-)

  Well take your time, I find the idea quite interesting. Also since we are 
allowed wild dreams it would be possible to generate also native tables and 
things like that. Hummmmm. :-)

  True, but still a feature with lots of potential for users.

  I am wondering how this could be related with inset external....
