     """ Launches a localhost kernel, binding to the specified ports.
 
     Parameters
     ----------
     xrep_port : int, optional
         The port to use for XREP channel.
 
     pub_port : int, optional
         The port to use for the SUB channel.
 
     req_port : int, optional
         The port to use for the REQ (raw input) channel.
 
     independent : bool, optional (default False) 
         If set, the kernel process is guaranteed to survive if this process
         dies. If not set, an effort is made to ensure that the kernel is killed
         when this process dies. Note that in this case it is still good practice
         to kill kernels manually before exiting.
 
     pylab : bool or string, optional (default False)
         If not False, the kernel will be launched with pylab enabled. If a
         string is passed, matplotlib will use the specified backend. Otherwise,
         matplotlib's default backend will be used.
 
     Returns
     -------
     A tuple of form:
         (kernel_process, xrep_port, pub_port, req_port)
     where kernel_process is a Popen object and the ports are integers.
