;;; ipython.el --- Adds support for IPython to python-mode.el

;;; Commentary 
;; This library makes all the functionality python-mode has when running with
;; the normal python-interpreter available for ipython, too. It also enables a
;; persistent py-shell command history across sessions (if you exit python
;; with C-d in py-shell) and defines the command `ipython-to-doctest', which
;; can be used to convert bits of a ipython session into something that can be
;; used for doctests. To install, put this file somewhere in your emacs
;; `load-path' [1] and add the following line to your ~/.emacs file (the first
;; line only needed if the default (``"ipython"``) is wrong)::
;;
;;   (setq ipython-command "/SOME-PATH/ipython")
;;   (require 'ipython)
;;
;; Ipython will be set as the default python shell, but only if the ipython
;; executable is in the path. For ipython sessions autocompletion with <tab>
;; is also enabled (experimental feature!). Please also note that all the
;; terminal functions in py-shell are handled by emacs's comint, **not** by
;; (i)python, so importing readline etc. will have 0 effect.
;;
;; To start an interactive ipython session run `py-shell' with ``M-x py-shell``
;; (or the default keybinding ``C-c C-!``).
;;
;; NOTE: This mode is currently somewhat alpha and although I hope that it
;; will work fine for most cases, doing certain things (like the
;; autocompletion and a decent scheme to switch between python interpreters)
;; properly will also require changes to ipython that will likely have to wait
;; for a larger rewrite scheduled some time in the future.
;; 
;; Also note that you currently NEED THE CVS VERSION OF PYTHON.EL.
;;
;; Further note that I don't know whether this runs under windows or not and
;; that if it doesn't I can't really help much, not being afflicted myself.
;;
;;
;; Hints for effective usage
;; -------------------------
;;
;; - IMO the best feature by far of the ipython/emacs combo is how much easier it
;;   makes it to find and fix bugs thanks to the ``%pdb on``/ pdbtrack combo. Try
;;   it: first in the ipython to shell do ``%pdb on`` then do something that will
;;   raise an exception (FIXME nice example) -- and be amazed how easy it is to
;;   inspect the live objects in each stack frames and to jump to the
;;   corresponding sourcecode locations as you walk up and down the stack trace
;;   (even without ``%pdb on`` you can always use ``C-c -`` (`py-up-exception')
;;   to jump to the corresponding source code locations).
;;
;; - emacs gives you much more powerful commandline editing and output searching
;;   capabilities than ipython-standalone -- isearch is your friend if you
;;   quickly want to print 'DEBUG ...' to stdout out etc.
;;
;; - This is not really specific to ipython, but for more convenient history
;;   access you might want to add something like the following to *the beggining*
;;   of your ``.emacs`` (if you want behavior that's more similar to stand-alone
;;   ipython, you can change ``meta p`` etc. for ``control p``)::
;;
;;         (require 'comint)
;;         (define-key comint-mode-map [(meta p)] 
;;           'comint-previous-matching-input-from-input)
;;         (define-key comint-mode-map [(meta n)] 
;;           'comint-next-matching-input-from-input)
;;         (define-key comint-mode-map [(control meta n)]
;;            'comint-next-input)
;;         (define-key comint-mode-map [(control meta p)]
;;            'comint-previous-input)
;;
;; - Be aware that if you customize py-python-command previously, this value
;;   will override what ipython.el does (because loading the customization
;;   variables comes later).
;;
;; Please send comments and feedback to the ipython-list
;; (<ipython-user@scipy.net>) where I (a.s.) or someone else will try to
;; answer them (it helps if you specify your emacs version, OS etc; 
;; familiarity with <http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html> might
;; speed up things further).
;;
;; Footnotes:
;;
;;     [1] If you don't know what `load-path' is, C-h v load-path will tell
;;     you; if required you can also add a new directory. So assuming that
;;     ipython.el resides in ~/el/, put this in your emacs:
;;
;;
;;           (add-to-list 'load-path "~/el")
;;           (setq ipython-command "/some-path/ipython")
;;           (require 'ipython)
;;
;;
;;
;;
;; TODO:
;;      - do autocompletion properly
;;      - implement a proper switching between python interpreters
;;
;; BUGS:
;;      - neither::
;;
;;         (py-shell "-c print 'FOOBAR'")
;;       
;;        nor::
;;       
;;         (let ((py-python-command-args (append py-python-command-args 
;;                                              '("-c" "print 'FOOBAR'"))))
;;           (py-shell))
;;
;;        seem to print anything as they should
;;
;;      - look into init priority issues with `py-python-command' (if it's set
;;        via custom)
