Tim,
Thanks for the heads up... you've allayed my fears about the learning
curve. Sounds like having *both* as options for participants is
definitely a good idea and I'd definitely encourage people to "show
off" these tools should they wish to use them. I'll add them to the
list ;-)
Nicholas.

Just out of interest, what helpful features over and above the

this enhance the Dojo..?
If I'm right, they both offer basically a reworked Python interpreter
with lots of bells and whistles. But the bells & whistles are
optional,
so there's a very shallow learning curve but the opportunity to see
how the extra features might be useful.
bpython doesn't work on Windows and iPython has never quite clicked
with me in spite of a few goes, but I'm at least +0.5 on having them
available for people who know/like them or at least think they might
benefit.
