Hi, I'm not sure what it's called, but I really like the feature where you type the first few letters of a command, and then up arrow to cycle through the history only selects commands from the history that start with those few letters. Since I am working on a few projects at the moment I wanted to have seperate command histories - so I copied my normal ipythonrc-scipy file to ipythonrc-fd and start my new session with "ipython -pylab -p fd" However, I can't seem to get the history completion to work properly in this profile, although I can see no difference between the files: robin-mbp-3:.ipython robince$ ls IPython_crash_report.txt ipy_profile_sh.pyc ipythonrc-physics db ipy_user_conf.py ipythonrc-pysh history ipy_user_conf.pyc ipythonrc-scipy history-fd ipythonrc ipythonrc-tutorial history-scipy ipythonrc-fd security history-sh ipythonrc-math ipy_profile_sh.py ipythonrc-numeric robin-mbp-3:.ipython robince$ diff ipythonrc-scipy ipythonrc-fd robin-mbp-3:.ipython robince$ Does anyone have any idea why this isn't working? Cheers Robin
