Py3k and IPython

Question

I'm moving on up to Python 3, but can't seem to find an IPython release for it. The main IPython release page doesn't list anything appropriate. Any help in getting IPython working for Py3k would be much appreciated.

Answer 1

See the ipython dev mailing list

EDIT : see the Ipython 3 page - where now (Jan 2011) it says there is a version for python 3 in source code version only

EDIT: and now iPython supports python 3 directly.

Answer 2

Python 3 support has been around for a fairly long time now. You don't need a different version. IPython supports modern versions of Python 2 and 3. You just run IPython with the appropriate interpreter, python3 ipython.py. You can install IPython on Python3 by running setup.py with your Python3 interpreter.
