IPython has seen quite a large refactoring in the last couple of years, and now there is a popular vim-ipython integration: https://github.com/ivanov/vim-ipython
Thanks for mentioning this! I read this bit on the project page:
The big change from previous versions of ipy.vim is that it no longer requires the old brittle ipy_vimserver.py instantiation, and since it uses just vim and python, it is platform independent (i.e. works even on windows, unlike the previous nix only solution). The requirements are IPython 0.11+ with zeromq capabilities, vim compiled with +python.
And had a moment of panic. As the guy who wrote ipy_vimserver.py (the playing mentioned in my previous post) I am both glad that this awesome project ivanov wrote evolved from it, and horrified that people were using it :). (particularly after searching for ipy_vimserver on google, and finding a lot of issues people were having...)
