| Can anyone recommend a Python interactive shell for use in 
| presentations?
| 
| Ideal characteristics (priority order):
| o configurable font size
| o full screen mode
| o readline support
| o syntax coloring
| 
| I've tried ipython but, since it runs inside a console 
| window, and the 
| console window has a limited number of selectable fonts, it doesn't 
| work terribly well.
| 
| I've seen presentations using some sort of PyGame implemented shell. 
| Does anyone have an information on that?

Warning: untested response.

Since I remembered that Michael Hudson had done such
a thing once, I Googled and came across this:

http://codespeak.net/py/current/doc/execnet.html

which might get you started.
