Hello Pierre,

first of all, thank you VERY MUCH for all the effort that you put into 
making Python more accessible. I am systematically switching (my students 
and myself) from Matlab to Python - and would not/could not have done it 
without your efforts. Also, I appreciate it that you provide personal 
feedback to so many people getting started with Python!

As for my problem, you were right: it was a mixup between the ipython 
console launcher, and the IPython script, and was fixed by running 
"ipython" from the "cmd.exe" launched by WinPython. This also fixed the 
problem with "get_config not defined".

Best regards - and keep up your good work

thomas
