When +deep_reload is off, IPython will use the normal reload(), but deep_reload will still be available as dreload(). This feature is off by default [which means that you have both normal reload() and dreload()]. .TP -.B \-editor -Which editor to use with the @edit command. By default, IPython will -honor your EDITOR environment variable (if not set, vi is the Unix -default and notepad the Windows one). Since this editor is invoked on -the fly by IPython and is meant for editing small code snippets, you -may want to use a small, lightweight editor here (in case your default -EDITOR is something like Emacs). -.TP -.B \-ipythondir -The name of your IPython configuration directory IPYTHON_DIR. This can -also be specified through the environment variable IPYTHON_DIR. -.TP -.B \-log|l -Generate a log file of all input. The file is named ipython_log.py in your -current directory (which prevents logs from multiple IPython sessions from -trampling each other). You can use this to later restore a session by loading -your logfile as a file to be executed with option -logplay (see below). -.TP -.B \-logfile|lf -Specify the name of your logfile. -.TP -.B \-logplay|lp -Replay a previous log. For restoring a session as close as possible to -the state you left it in, use this option (don't just run the -logfile). With \-logplay, IPython will try to reconstruct the previous -working environment in full, not just execute the commands in the -logfile. -.br -.sp 1 -When a session is restored, logging is automatically turned on again -with the name of the logfile it was invoked with (it is read from the -log header). So once you've turned logging on for a session, you can -quit IPython and reload it as many times as you want and it will -continue to log its history and restore from the beginning every time. -.br -.sp 1 -Caveats: there are limitations in this option. The history variables -_i*,_* and _dh don't get restored properly. In the future we will try -to implement full session saving by writing and retrieving a -snapshot of the memory state of IPython. But our first attempts -failed because of inherent limitations of Python's Pickle module, so -this may have to wait. -.TP -.B \-[no]messages -Print messages which IPython collects about its startup process -(default on). -.TP -.B \-[no]pdb -Automatically call the pdb debugger after every uncaught exception. If -you are used to debugging using pdb, this puts you automatically -inside of it after any call (either in IPython or in code called by -it) which triggers an exception which goes uncaught. -.TP -.B \-pydb -Makes IPython use the third party "pydb" package as debugger, -instead of pdb. Requires that pydb is installed. -.TP -.B \-[no]pprint -IPython can optionally use the pprint (pretty printer) module for -displaying results. pprint tends to give a nicer display of nested -data structures. If you like it, you can turn it on permanently in -your config file (default off). -.TP -.B \-profile|p -Assume that your config file is ipythonrc- (looks in current dir -first, then in IPYTHON_DIR). This is a quick way to keep and load -multiple config files for different tasks, especially if you use the -include option of config files. You can keep a basic -IPYTHON_DIR/ipythonrc file and then have other 'profiles' which include -this one and load extra things for particular tasks. For example: -.br -.sp 1 -1) $HOME/.ipython/ipythonrc : load basic things you always want. -.br -2) $HOME/.ipython/ipythonrc-math : load (1) and basic math-related -modules. -.br -3) $HOME/.ipython/ipythonrc-numeric : load (1) and Numeric and -plotting modules. -.br -.sp 1 -Since it is possible to create an endless loop by having circular file -inclusions, IPython will stop if it reaches 15 recursive inclusions. -.TP -.B \-prompt_in1|pi1 -Specify the string used for input prompts. Note that if you are using -numbered prompts, the number is represented with a '\\#' in the -string. Don't forget to quote strings with spaces embedded in -them. Default: 'In [\\#]: '. -.br -.sp 1 -Most bash-like escapes can be used to customize IPython's prompts, as well as -a few additional ones which are IPython-specific. All valid prompt escapes -are described in detail in the Customization section of the IPython HTML/PDF -manual. -.TP -.B \-prompt_in2|pi2 -Similar to the previous option, but used for the continuation prompts. The -special sequence '\\D' is similar to '\\#', but with all digits replaced dots -(so you can have your continuation prompt aligned with your input -prompt). Default: ' .\\D.: ' (note three spaces at the start for alignment -with 'In [\\#]'). -.TP -.B \-prompt_out|po -String used for output prompts, also uses numbers like prompt_in1. -Default: 'Out[\\#]:'. -.TP -.B \-quick -Start in bare bones mode (no config file loaded). -.TP -.B \-rcfile -Name of your IPython resource configuration file. normally IPython -loads ipythonrc (from current directory) or IPYTHON_DIR/ipythonrc. If -the loading of your config file fails, IPython starts with a bare -bones configuration (no modules loaded at all). -.TP -.B \-[no]readline -Use the readline library, which is needed to support name completion -and command history, among other things. It is enabled by default, but -may cause problems for users of X/Emacs in Python comint or shell -buffers. -.br -.sp 1 -Note that emacs 'eterm' buffers (opened with M-x term) support -IPython's readline and syntax coloring fine, only 'emacs' (M-x shell -and C-c !) buffers do not. -.TP -.B \-screen_length|sl -Number of lines of your screen. This is used to control printing of -very long strings. Strings longer than this number of lines will be -sent through a pager instead of directly printed. -.br -.sp 1 -The default value for this is 0, which means IPython will auto-detect -your screen size every time it needs to print certain potentially long -strings (this doesn't change the behavior of the 'print' keyword, it's -only triggered internally). If for some reason this isn't working well -(it needs curses support), specify it yourself. Otherwise don't change -the default. -.TP -.B \-separate_in|si -Separator before input prompts. Default '\n'. -.TP -.B \-separate_out|so -Separator before output prompts. Default: 0 (nothing). -.TP -.B \-separate_out2|so2 -Separator after output prompts. Default: 0 (nothing). -.TP -.B \-nosep -Shorthand for '\-separate_in 0 \-separate_out 0 \-separate_out2 0'. -Simply removes all input/output separators. -.TP -.B \-upgrade -Allows you to upgrade your IPYTHON_DIR configuration when you install a -new version of IPython. Since new versions may include new command -lines options or example files, this copies updated ipythonrc-type -files. However, it backs up (with a .old extension) all files which -it overwrites so that you can merge back any custimizations you might -have in your personal files. -.TP -.B \-Version -Print version information and exit. -.TP -.B -wxversion -Select a specific version of wxPython (used in conjunction with -\-wthread). Requires the wxversion module, part of recent wxPython -distributions. -.TP -.B \-xmode -Mode for exception reporting. The valid modes are Plain, Context, and -Verbose. -.br -.sp 1 -\- Plain: similar to python's normal traceback printing. -.br -.sp 1 -\- Context: prints 5 lines of context source code around each line in the -traceback. -.br -.sp 1 -\- Verbose: similar to Context, but additionally prints the variables -currently visible where the exception happened (shortening their strings if -too long).
