I can suggest also JGR package which give yo very good standalone 
interface (you cannot start terminal) with color syntax for all 
installed packages, active tips after typing funcion name, runnig any 
fragment of code directly from editor, obiect brownser etc. very nice 
tool... but.....

It is java-dependend and there are lots of problems with installing it - 
like most of the java dependend tools. For example I installed it 
without problem on one machine, beside on other almost the same I recive 
error. No one can tell me why (i.e why it is differend). Addationally 
like all others java programs it is extremly slow and resorce consumed.
