Does that MacPython package still Seg Fault when navigating through a "prefixed" command history? For instance, say you're in the python shell and you type: matrix = then hit up-arrow to get commands from your history that started with that "matrix =" prefix. When I would find one, then hit down arrow I'd get a seg fault. Maybe it happened when I didn't find a completion ... perhaps both, sorry, it's been a while.
I can't duplicate this, so it may have been fixed since you had problems with it. I usually use iPython when I need an interactive shell, however, and have never had this problem.
Hmm .. interesting ... I actually only noticed it when I started to use ipython since that's when I really started using the interactive shell in any serious way.
We even had a recent email to the ipython list about this very issue (it causes a Bus Error, not a Seg Fault, sorry).
I'll try installing it again to see what's cooking.
Thanks for taking the time to check it out. -steve
