I've never been able to get color working when using ipython within
emacs (21.3).  I just see various control codes in the *Python Output*
buffer.  I'm using ipython 0.6.5, ipython.el 1.8, python-mode 4.69
from CVS and ansi-color 3.4.5.  This happens with an empty .emacs and
`M-x load-library RET /path/to/ipython.el' in a fresh emacs.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Dan
