pythonpy - 'python -c', with tab completion and shorthand 

py [-x] [-l] [-c PRE_CMD] [-C POST_CMD] [-V] [-h] [expression]

pythonpy will evaluate any Python expression from the command line.

This will be done by the same Python interpreter that runs it. As this version uses Python 3, it is compatible with Python 3 syntax only.

Treat each row of stdin as x
Treat list of stdin as l
Run code before expression
Run code after expression
