Issues in magic_whos code

[Gokhan Sever]

1-) In .../IPython/core/magic.py looking at the magic_whos code:

You still mention of Numeric. Shouldn't these instances be cleared both in code and documentation providing that you drop support for Python 2.4 and below?

2-) Lines 966-967 in magic.py:

        # for these types, show len() instead of data:
        seq_types = [types.DictType,types.ListType,types.TupleType]

with a sample code:

In [18]: ll = range(10)

In [19]: whos
Variable Type Data/Info
----------------------------------------
a InteractiveShell <InteractiveShell('ipython.component0')>
b NoneType None
ll list [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]

From this, either the comment or the output of the whos needs to be updated.
