It isn't currently possible to debug something that is running in the 
Python Shell.  The usual way to get a shell while debugging is to run to 
a breakpoint and use the Debug Probe with the paused program.  Could you 
write scripts to set up your environment and the set a breakpoint after 
the set up is completed?

Thanks,

John
