Great!

If there's anything I can do in IPython to make your life easier, by all means
let me know. My only constraint is that  as I said, I stay out of lisp's way
as much as I can :) But I'll definitely try to incorporate any changes needed
(as long as they don't break ipython's basic functionality at a standalone
terminal).
