    dREPL: An attempt, rather experimental at this point, to improve deficiencies of the Python shell such as limited completion and lack of multi-line input editing. It's actually a REPL protocol geared towards dumb terminals (which is what Emacs looks like from the perspective of its subprocesses), so it's actually not limited to Python and can be used to create other fully-featured shells.
