     %history n     -> print at most n inputs\\
     %history n1 n2 -> print inputs between n1 and n2 (n2 not included)\\
 
     By default, input history is printed without line numbers so it can be
     directly pasted into an editor.
 
     With -n, each input's number <n> is shown, and is accessible as the
     automatically generated variable _i<n> as well as In[<n>].  Multi-line
     statements are printed starting at a new line for easy copy/paste.
 
     Options:
 
       -n: print line numbers for each input.
       This feature is only available if numbered prompts are in use.
 
       -o: also print outputs for each input.
 
       -p: print classic '>>>' python prompts before each input.  This is useful
        for making documentation, and in conjunction with -o, for producing
        doctest-ready output.
 
       -r: (default) print the 'raw' history, i.e. the actual commands you typed.
       
       -t: print the 'translated' history, as IPython understands it.  IPython
       filters your input and converts it all into valid Python source before
       executing it (things like magics or aliases are turned into function
       calls, for example). With this option, you'll see the native history
       instead of the user-entered version: '%cd /' will be seen as
       'get_ipython().magic("%cd /")' instead of '%cd /'.
       
       -g: treat the arg as a pattern to grep for in (full) history.
       This includes the "shadow history" (almost all commands ever written).
       Use '%hist -g' to show full shadow history (may be very long).
       In shadow history, every index nuwber starts with 0.
 
       -f FILENAME: instead of printing the output to the screen, redirect it to
        the given file.  The file is always overwritten, though IPython asks for
        confirmation first if it already exists.

       otherwise kill their mainloop. This is a bother for IPython

       Normally, IPython sets sys.excepthook to a CrashHandler instance, so if
       any app directly invokes sys.excepthook, it will look to the user like
       IPython crashed.  In order to work around this, we can disable the
       CrashHandler and replace it with this excepthook instead, which prints a
       regular traceback using our InteractiveTB.  In this fashion, apps which

       IPython, and the CrashHandler will only be triggered by real IPython

-        # =====
-        # This execution logic should stop calling runlines altogether, and
-        # instead we should do what runlines does, in a controlled manner, here
-        # (runlines mutates lots of state as it goes calling sub-methods that
-        # also mutate state).  Basically we should:
-        # - apply dynamic transforms for single-line input (the ones that
-        # split_blocks won't apply since they need context).
-        # - increment the global execution counter (we need to pull that out
-        # from outputcache's control; outputcache should instead read it from
-        # the main object).
-        # - do any logging of input
-        # - update histories (raw/translated)
-        # - then, call plain run_source (for single blocks, so displayhook is
-        # triggered) or run_code (for multiline blocks in exec mode).
-        #
-        # Once this is done, we'll be able to stop using runlines and we'll
-        # also have a much cleaner separation of logging, input history and
-        # output cache management.
