That's actually fairly obvious - sorry I missed that.

I'd support the change of the default settings for the next major release. I am 
looking at this (at the moment) from a teaching context, and it is useful to 
start from pure python, and then make it more convenient as required.

While we are discussing start-up scripts: when using the IPython console, I 
couldn't see the corresponding switch to avoid execution of "%pylab" or 
whatever happens at the start up, which essentially imports all the objects 
from pylab and numpy into the current name space. 

Many thanks,

Hans
