My pyrepl package

    http://starship.python.net/crew/mwh/hacks/pyrepl.html

does that.  It's unix only, and a bit rough around the edges.  I have
a new version sat on my irritatingly internet-disconnected home box
which I'll release as soon as I remember to stick it on a floppy and
bring it in to the department.

Cheers,

  Lisp is slower than C++...
