Sorry Chad it's not that. Again from my window:

IPython -- An enhanced Interactive Python

This is the IPython startup wrapper script, modified to work with maya
and pymel.
In order for this to work mayapy must be on your system PATH. The
mayapy
executable is located in the maya bin directory, so it's a good idea
to have this directory in your PATH anyway.  This script must be
set to executable to run ( from the terminal, cd into the directory
this file lives
and type: chmod 777 ipymel ). The rest of the docs below come from the
original ipython
executable...

The shell's mainloop() takes an optional argument, sys_exit
(default=0). If
set to 1, it calls sys.exit() at exit time. You can use the following
code in
your PYTHONSTARTUP file:

import IPython
IPython.Shell.IPShell().mainloop(sys_exit=1)

[or simply IPython.Shell.IPShell().mainloop(1) ]

and IPython will be your working environment when you start python.
The final
sys.exit() call will make python exit transparently when IPython
finishes, so
you don't have an extra prompt to get out of.

This is probably useful to developers who manage multiple Python
versions and
don't want to have correspondingly multiple IPython versions. Note
that in
this mode, there is no way to pass IPython any command-line options,
as those
are trapped first by Python itself.

Pro1:~ davegreenwood$

funny thing is, my setup looks so similar to yours on the youtube
demo, same versions of everything. I wonder if its to do with the
python installation?
You might of noticed that the version is slightly different in the
maya version and my included osx version (still 2.51 but check the
details from my earlier post).
Is it possible to make sure I always use the maya version of python
with pymel/ipymel?
I'm not sure what other info about my setup I can offer to shed any
light. I have installed the apple dev tools, which I believe install
some python additives, but otherwise a fairly standard machine with
not much else on it...

Again thanks for your help.
Dave.
