Enthought's EPD example tutorials
<p>I installed EPD fron Enthought and I am trying out some Chaco built in examples based on the instructions @ <a href="http://docs.enthought.com/chaco/quickstart.html" rel="nofollow">http://docs.enthought.com/chaco/quickstart.html</a>. I ran into 2 [newbie] problems in IPython interpreter:</p>

<p>1.</p>

<hr>

<pre><code>In [3]: python lines.py
  File "&lt;ipython-input-3-75ced467f885&gt;", line 1
    python lines.py
               ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
</code></pre>

<hr>

<p>Invalid syntax?</p>

<p>2.</p>

<hr>

<pre><code>In [6]: import lines
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ImportError                               Traceback (most recent call last)

      4 x = np.linspace(-2*pi, 2*pi, 100)
      5 y = np.sin(x)

ImportError: No module named shell

<p>No module named shell?</p>

<p>I am very new at this and wanted to try out these examples after seeing the presentation video from Pycon 2012 by Peter Wang. I greatly appreciate any help on what I did wrong and what can I do to get it to work; I did not find anything on google or similar at the quicksart.</p>

<p>Thank you for your time. </p>
