r2481 | Welcome to IPython. Our full documentation can be found in the ``docs/dist`` | ||
subdirectory in ``.html`` and ``.pdf`` formats, also available online at our | ||||
`website <http://ipython.scipy.org>`_. The ``docs/source`` directory contains | ||||
the plaintext version of these manuals. | ||||

r2573 | Dependencies and supported Python versions | ||
========================================== | ||||
For full details, see the installation section of the manual. The basic parts | ||||
of IPython only need the Python standard library, but much of its more advanced | ||||
functionality requires extra packages. | ||||

of IPython to Python 3.x has been sarted, and is available at | ||||
