[IPython-user] ipython1-cocoa branch

[Brian Granger]

Barry,

Great!  I am traveling right now and won't have a chance to look at
this until next week.  But, I will look through everything carefully.
I definitely have some ideas about threading, eventloops, getting this
to work with matpotlib, etc.  I will be in touch.
