  * Readline based name completion.

  * Extensible system of &#39, magic&#39, commands for controlling the environment and
   performing many tasks related either to IPython or the operating system.

  * Configuration system with easy switching between different setups (simpler
   than changing $PYTHONSTARTUP environment variables every time).

  * Session logging and reloading.

  * Extensible syntax processing for special purpose situations.

  * Access to the system shell with user-extensible alias system.

  * Easily embeddable in other Python programs.

  * Integrated access to the pdb debugger and the Python profiler.");
