""" IPython extension: add %rehashdir magic

Usage:

%rehashdir c:/bin c:/tools
  - Add all executables under c:/bin and c:/tools to alias table, in 
  order to make them directly executable from any directory.
  
This also serves as an example on how to extend ipython
with new magic functions.

Unlike rest of ipython, this requires Python 2.4 (optional
extensions are allowed to do that).
