This really solve my problem, but :

1) It forces me to learn ipython (ok, I'm a geek, I'll do it)
2) I need to have ipython installed on my computer, it's not that easy.

Thank for you help, I'm still waiting for a *pure* python/pdb solution,
but I'm quite happy now.

PS: I put the list and you as receivers because perhaps my thanks does
not interests others, but the quotation of your answer is quite
interesting ;)
