         When scripts are executed via %run, we must keep a reference to the
         namespace of their __main__ module (a FakeModule instance) around so
         that Python doesn't clear it, rendering objects defined therein
         useless.
 
         This method keeps said reference in a private dict, keyed by the
         absolute path of the module object (which corresponds to the script
         path).  This way, for multiple executions of the same script we only
         keep one copy of the namespace (the last one), thus preventing memory
         leaks from old references while allowing the objects from the last
         execution to be accessible.
 
         Note: we can not allow the actual FakeModule instances to be deleted,
         because of how Python tears down modules (it hard-sets all their
         references to None without regard for reference counts).  This method
         must therefore make a *copy* of the given namespace, to allow the
         original module's __dict__ to be cleared and reused.

       otherwise kill their mainloop. This is a bother for IPython
       which excepts to catch all of the program exceptions with a try:

       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
       call sys.excepthook will generate a regular-looking exception from
       IPython, and the CrashHandler will only be triggered by real IPython
       crashes.

 IPython's 'magic' functions
 ===========================
 
 The magic function system provides a series of functions which allow you to
 control the behavior of IPython itself, plus a lot of system-type
 features. All these functions are prefixed with a % character, but parameters
 are given without parentheses or quotes.
 
 NOTE: If you have 'automagic' enabled (via the command line option or with the
 %automagic function), you don't need to type in the % explicitly.  By default,
 IPython ships with automagic on, so you should only rarely need the % escape.
 
 Example: typing '%cd mydir' (without the quotes) changes you working directory
 to 'mydir', if it exists.
 
 You can define your own magic functions to extend the system. See the supplied
 ipythonrc and example-magic.py files for details (in your ipython
 configuration directory, typically $HOME/.config/ipython on Linux or $HOME/.ipython elsewhere).
 
 You can also define your own aliased names for magic functions. In your
 ipythonrc file, placing a line like:
 
   execute __IPYTHON__.magic_pf = __IPYTHON__.magic_profile
 
 will define %pf as a new name for %profile.
 
 You can also call magics in code using the magic() function, which IPython
 automatically adds to the builtin namespace.  Type 'magic?' for details.
 
 For a list of the available magic functions, use %lsmagic. For a description
 of any of them, type %magic_name?, e.g. '%cd?'.
 
 Currently the magic system has the following functions:\n"""

           matched, many IPython generated objects have a single
           underscore. The default is case insensitive matching. Matching is
           also done on the attributes of objects and not only on the objects
           in a module.
 
           [OBJECT TYPE]
 
           Is the name of a python type from the types module. The name is
           given in lowercase without the ending type, ex. StringType is
           written string. By adding a type here only objects matching the
           given type are matched. Using all here makes the pattern match all
           types (this is the default).
 
         Options:
 
           -a: makes the pattern match even objects whose names start with a
           single underscore.  These names are normally ommitted from the
           search.
 
           -i/-c: make the pattern case insensitive/sensitive.  If neither of
           these options is given, the default is read from your ipythonrc
           file.  The option name which sets this value is
           'wildcards_case_sensitive'.  If this option is not specified in your
           ipythonrc file, IPython's internal default is to do a case sensitive
           search.
 
           -e/-s NAMESPACE: exclude/search a given namespace.  The pattern you
           specifiy can be searched in any of the following namespaces:
           'builtin', 'user', 'user_global','internal', 'alias', where
           'builtin' and 'user' are the search defaults.  Note that you should
           not use quotes when specifying namespaces.
 
           'Builtin' contains the python module builtin, 'user' contains all
           user data, 'alias' only contain the shell aliases and no python
           objects, 'internal' contains objects used by IPython.  The
           'user_global' namespace is only used by embedded IPython instances,
           and it contains module-level globals.  You can add namespaces to the
           search with -s or exclude them with -e (these options can be given
           more than once).
     
         Examples:
        
         %psearch a*            -> objects beginning with an a
         %psearch -e builtin a* -> objects NOT in the builtin space starting in a

           a log is very easy, using for example a simple awk call:

           into valid Python.  For example, %Exit is logged as
           '_ip.magic("Exit").  If the -r flag is given, all input is logged

         Usage:
           %prun [options] statement
 
         The given statement (which doesn't require quote marks) is run via the
         python profiler in a manner similar to the profile.run() function.
         Namespaces are internally managed to work correctly; profile.run
         cannot be used in IPython because it makes certain assumptions about
         namespaces which do not hold under IPython.
 
         Options:
 
         -l <limit>: you can place restrictions on what or how much of the
         profile gets printed. The limit value can be:
 
           * A string: only information for function names containing this string
           is printed.
 
           * An integer: only these many lines are printed.
 
           * A float (between 0 and 1): this fraction of the report is printed
           (for example, use a limit of 0.4 to see the topmost 40% only).
 
         You can combine several limits with repeated use of the option. For
         example, '-l __init__ -l 5' will print only the topmost 5 lines of
         information about class constructors.
 
         -r: return the pstats.Stats object generated by the profiling. This
         object has all the information about the profile in it, and you can
         later use it for further analysis or in other functions.
 
        -s <key>: sort profile by given key. You can provide more than one key
         by using the option several times: '-s key1 -s key2 -s key3...'. The
         default sorting key is 'time'.
 
         The following is copied verbatim from the profile documentation
         referenced below:
 
         When more than one key is provided, additional keys are used as
         secondary criteria when the there is equality in all keys selected
         before them.
         
         Abbreviations can be used for any key names, as long as the
         abbreviation is unambiguous.  The following are the keys currently
         defined:
 
                 Valid Arg       Meaning
                   "calls"      call count
                   "cumulative" cumulative time
                   "file"       file name
                   "module"     file name
                   "pcalls"     primitive call count
                   "line"       line number
                   "name"       function name
                   "nfl"        name/file/line
                   "stdname"    standard name
                   "time"       internal time
 
         Note that all sorts on statistics are in descending order (placing
         most time consuming items first), where as name, file, and line number
         searches are in ascending order (i.e., alphabetical). The subtle
         distinction between "nfl" and "stdname" is that the standard name is a
         sort of the name as printed, which means that the embedded line
         numbers get compared in an odd way.  For example, lines 3, 20, and 40
         would (if the file names were the same) appear in the string order
         "20" "3" and "40".  In contrast, "nfl" does a numeric compare of the
         line numbers.  In fact, sort_stats("nfl") is the same as
         sort_stats("name", "file", "line").
 
         -T <filename>: save profile results as shown on screen to a text
         file. The profile is still shown on screen.
 
         -D <filename>: save (via dump_stats) profile statistics to given
         filename. This data is in a format understod by the pstats module, and
         is generated by a call to the dump_stats() method of profile
         objects. The profile is still shown on screen.
 
         If you want to run complete programs under the profiler's control, use
         '%run -p [prof_opts] filename.py [args to program]' where prof_opts
         contains profiler specific options as described here.

         """Run the named file inside IPython as a program.
 
         Usage:\\
           %run [-n -i -t [-N<N>] -d [-b<N>] -p [profile options]] file [args]
         
         Parameters after the filename are passed as command-line arguments to
         the program (put in sys.argv). Then, control returns to IPython's
         prompt.
 
         This is similar to running at a system prompt:\\
           $ python file args\\
         but with the advantage of giving you IPython's tracebacks, and of
         loading all variables into your interactive namespace for further use
         (unless -p is used, see below).
 
         The file is executed in a namespace initially consisting only of
         __name__=='__main__' and sys.argv constructed as indicated. It thus
         sees its environment as if it were being run as a stand-alone program
         (except for sharing global objects such as previously imported
         modules). But after execution, the IPython interactive namespace gets
         updated with all variables defined in the program (except for __name__
         and sys.argv). This allows for very convenient loading of code for
         interactive work, while giving each program a 'clean sheet' to run in.
 
         Options:
         
         -n: __name__ is NOT set to '__main__', but to the running file's name
         without extension (as python does under import).  This allows running
         scripts and reloading the definitions in them without calling code
         protected by an ' if __name__ == "__main__" ' clause.
 
         -i: run the file in IPython's namespace instead of an empty one. This
         is useful if you are experimenting with code written in a text editor
         which depends on variables defined interactively.
 
         -e: ignore sys.exit() calls or SystemExit exceptions in the script
         being run.  This is particularly useful if IPython is being used to
         run unittests, which always exit with a sys.exit() call.  In such
         cases you are interested in the output of the test results, not in
         seeing a traceback of the unittest module.
 
         -t: print timing information at the end of the run.  IPython will give
         you an estimated CPU time consumption for your script, which under
         Unix uses the resource module to avoid the wraparound problems of
         time.clock().  Under Unix, an estimate of time spent on system tasks
         is also given (for Windows platforms this is reported as 0.0).
 
         If -t is given, an additional -N<N> option can be given, where <N>
         must be an integer indicating how many times you want the script to
         run.  The final timing report will include total and per run results.
 
         For example (testing the script uniq_stable.py):
 
             In [1]: run -t uniq_stable
 
             IPython CPU timings (estimated):\\
               User  :    0.19597 s.\\
               System:        0.0 s.\\
 
             In [2]: run -t -N5 uniq_stable
 
             IPython CPU timings (estimated):\\
             Total runs performed: 5\\
               Times :      Total       Per run\\
               User  :   0.910862 s,  0.1821724 s.\\
               System:        0.0 s,        0.0 s.
 
         -d: run your program under the control of pdb, the Python debugger.
         This allows you to execute your program step by step, watch variables,
         etc.  Internally, what IPython does is similar to calling:
         
           pdb.run('execfile("YOURFILENAME")')
 
         with a breakpoint set on line 1 of your file.  You can change the line
         number for this automatic breakpoint to be <N> by using the -bN option
         (where N must be an integer).  For example:
 
           %run -d -b40 myscript
 
         will set the first breakpoint at line 40 in myscript.py.  Note that
         the first breakpoint must be set on a line which actually does
         something (not a comment or docstring) for it to stop execution.
 
         When the pdb debugger starts, you will see a (Pdb) prompt.  You must
         first enter 'c' (without qoutes) to start execution up to the first
         breakpoint.
 
         Entering 'help' gives information about the use of the debugger.  You
         can easily see pdb's full documentation with "import pdb;pdb.help()"
         at a prompt.
 
         -p: run program under the control of the Python profiler module (which
         prints a detailed report of execution times, function calls, etc).
 
         You can pass other options after -p which affect the behavior of the
         profiler itself. See the docs for %prun for details.
 
         In this mode, the program's variables do NOT propagate back to the
         IPython interactive namespace (because they remain in the namespace
         where the profiler executes them).
 
         Internally this triggers a call to %prun, see its documentation for
         details on the options available specifically for profiling.
 
         There is one special usage for which the text above doesn't apply:
         if the filename ends with .ipy, the file is run as ipython script,
         just as if the commands were written on IPython prompt.

         Usage:\\

         Time execution of a Python statement or expression using the timeit
         module.
 
         Options:
         -n<N>: execute the given statement <N> times in a loop. If this value
         is not given, a fitting value is chosen. 
         
         -r<R>: repeat the loop iteration <R> times and take the best result.
         Default: 3
         
         -t: use time.time to measure the time, which is the default on Unix.
         This function measures wall time.
         
         -c: use time.clock to measure the time, which is the default on
         Windows and measures wall time. On Unix, resource.getrusage is used
         instead and returns the CPU user time.
 
         -p<P>: use a precision of <P> digits to display the timing result.
         Default: 3
 
         
         Examples:
 
           In [1]: %timeit pass
           10000000 loops, best of 3: 53.3 ns per loop
 
           In [2]: u = None

           1 loops, best of 3: 2 s per loop
           
 
         The times reported by %timeit will be slightly higher than those
         reported by the timeit.py script when variables are accessed. This is
         due to the fact that %timeit executes the statement in the namespace
         of the shell, compared with timeit.py, which uses a single setup
         statement to import function or create variables. Generally, the bias
         does not matter as long as results from timeit.py are not mixed with

         This function provides very basic timing functionality.  In Python
         2.3, the timeit module offers more control and sophistication, so this
         could be rewritten to use it (patches welcome).

         filenames or string objects.
 
         Usage:\\
           %macro [options] name n1-n2 n3-n4 ... n5 .. n6 ...
 
         Options:
         
           -r: use 'raw' input.  By default, the 'processed' history is used,
           so that magics are loaded in their transformed version to valid
           Python.  If this option is given, the raw input as typed as the
           command line is used instead.
 
         This will define a global variable called `name` which is a string
         made of joining the slices and lines you specify (n1,n2,... numbers
         above) from your input history into a single string. This variable
         acts like an automatic function which re-executes those lines as if
         you had typed them. You just type 'name' at the prompt and the code
         executes.
 
         The syntax for indicating input ranges is described in %history.
 
         Note: as a 'hidden' feature, you can also use traditional python slice
         notation, where N:M means numbers N through M-1.
 
         For example, if your history contains (%hist prints it):
         
           44: x=1
           45: y=3
           46: z=x+y
           47: print x
           48: a=5
           49: print 'x',x,'y',y
 
         you can create a macro with lines 44 through 47 (included) and line 49
         called my_macro with:
 
           In [55]: %macro my_macro 44-47 49
 
         Now, typing `my_macro` (without quotes) will re-execute all this code
         in one pass.
 
         You don't need to give the line-numbers in order, and any given line
         number can appear multiple times. You can assemble macros with any
         lines from your input history in any order.
 
         The macro is a simple object which holds its value in an attribute,
         but IPython's display system checks for macros and executes them as
         code instead of printing them when you type their name.
 
         You can view a macro's contents by explicitly printing it with:
         
           'print macro_name'.

         Usage:
           %edit [options] [args]
 
         %edit runs IPython's editor hook.  The default version of this hook is
         set to call the __IPYTHON__.rc.editor command.  This is read from your
         environment variable $EDITOR.  If this isn't found, it will default to
         vi under Linux/Unix and to notepad under Windows.  See the end of this
         docstring for how to change the editor hook.
 
         You can also set the value of this editor via the command line option
         '-editor' or in your ipythonrc file. This is useful if you wish to use
         specifically for IPython an editor different from your typical default
         (and for Windows users who typically don't set environment variables).
 
         This command allows you to conveniently edit multi-line code right in
         your IPython session.
         
         If called without arguments, %edit opens up an empty editor with a
         temporary file and will execute the contents of this file when you
         close it (don't forget to save it!).
 
 
         Options:
 
         -n <number>: open the editor at a specified line number.  By default,
         the IPython editor hook uses the unix syntax 'editor +N filename', but
         you can configure this by providing your own modified hook if your
         favorite editor supports line-number specifications with a different
         syntax.
         
         -p: this will call the editor with the same data as the previous time
         it was used, regardless of how long ago (in your current session) it
         was.
 
         -r: use 'raw' input.  This option only applies to input taken from the
         user's history.  By default, the 'processed' history is used, so that
         magics are loaded in their transformed version to valid Python.  If
         this option is given, the raw input as typed as the command line is
         used instead.  When you exit the editor, it will be executed by
         IPython's own processor.
         
         -x: do not execute the edited code immediately upon exit. This is
         mainly useful if you are editing programs which need to be called with
         command line arguments, which you can then do using %run.
 
 
         Arguments:
 
         If arguments are given, the following possibilites exist:
         
         - If the argument is a filename, IPython will load that into the
         editor. It will execute its contents with execfile() when you exit,
         loading any code in the file into your interactive namespace.
 
         - The arguments are ranges of input history,  e.g. "7 ~1/4-6".
         The syntax is the same as in the %history magic.
 
         - If the argument is a string variable, its contents are loaded
         into the editor. You can thus edit any string which contains
         python code (including the result of previous edits).
 
         - If the argument is the name of an object (other than a string),
         IPython will try to locate the file where it was defined and open the
         editor at the point where it is defined. You can use `%edit function`
         to load an editor exactly at the point where 'function' is defined,
         edit it and have the file be executed automatically.
 
         If the object is a macro (see %macro for details), this opens up your
         specified editor with a temporary file containing the macro's data.
         Upon exit, the macro is reloaded with the contents of the file.
 
         Note: opening at an exact line is only supported under Unix, and some
         editors (like kedit and gedit up to Gnome 2.8) do not understand the
         '+NUMBER' parameter necessary for this feature. Good editors like
         (X)Emacs, vi, jed, pico and joe all do.
 
         After executing your code, %edit will return as output the code you
         typed in the editor (except when it was an existing file). This way
         you can reload the code in further invocations of %edit as a variable,
         via _<NUMBER> or Out[<NUMBER>], where <NUMBER> is the prompt number of
         the output.
 
         Note that %edit is also available through the alias %ed.
 
         This is an example of creating a simple function inside the editor and
         then modifying it. First, start up the editor:
 
         In [1]: ed
         Editing... done. Executing edited code...
         Out[1]: 'def foo():n    print "foo() was defined in an editing session"n'
 
         We can then call the function foo():
         
         In [2]: foo()
         foo() was defined in an editing session
 
         Now we edit foo.  IPython automatically loads the editor with the
         (temporary) file where foo() was previously defined:
         
         In [3]: ed foo
         Editing... done. Executing edited code...
 
         And if we call foo() again we get the modified version:
         
         In [4]: foo()
         foo() has now been changed!
 
         Here is an example of how to edit a code snippet successive

         is defined in the IPython.core.hooks module, and you can use that as a
         starting example for further modifications.  That file also has

         '%alias alias_name cmd' defines 'alias_name' as an alias for 'cmd'
 
         Then, typing 'alias_name params' will execute the system command 'cmd
         params' (from your underlying operating system).
 
         Aliases have lower precedence than magic functions and Python normal
         variables, so if 'foo' is both a Python variable and an alias, the
         alias can not be executed until 'del foo' removes the Python variable.
 
         You can use the %l specifier in an alias definition to represent the
         whole line when the alias is called.  For example:
 
           In [2]: alias bracket echo "Input in brackets: <%l>"
           In [3]: bracket hello world
           Input in brackets: <hello world>
 
         You can also define aliases with parameters using %s specifiers (one
         per parameter):
         
           In [1]: alias parts echo first %s second %s
           In [2]: %parts A B
           first A second B
           In [3]: %parts A
           Incorrect number of arguments: 2 expected.
           parts is an alias to: 'echo first %s second %s'
 
         Note that %l and %s are mutually exclusive.  You can only use one or
         the other in your aliases.
 
         Aliases expand Python variables just like system calls using ! or !! 
         do: all expressions prefixed with '$' get expanded.  For details of
         the semantic rules, see PEP-215:
         http://www.python.org/peps/pep-0215.html.  This is the library used by
         IPython for variable expansion.  If you want to access a true shell
         variable, an extra $ is necessary to prevent its expansion by IPython:
 
         In [6]: alias show echo
         In [7]: PATH='A Python string'
         In [8]: show $PATH
         A Python string
         In [9]: show $$PATH
         /usr/local/lf9560/bin:/usr/local/intel/compiler70/ia32/bin:...
 
         You can use the alias facility to acess all of $PATH.  See the %rehash
         and %rehashx functions, which automatically create aliases for the
         contents of your $PATH.

           cd -: changes to the last visited directory.
 
           cd -<n>: changes to the n-th directory in the directory history.

         Options:
 
         -q: quiet.  Do not print the working directory after the cd command is
         executed.  By default IPython's cd command does print this directory,
         since the default prompts do not display path information.

         DEPRECATED. Suboptimal, retained for backwards compatibility.
         
         You should use the form 'var = !command' instead. Example:
          
          "%sc -l myfiles = ls ~" should now be written as
             
          "myfiles = !ls ~"
          
         myfiles.s, myfiles.l and myfiles.n still apply as documented
         below.
 
         --
         %sc [options] varname=command
 
         IPython will run the given command using commands.getoutput(), and
         will then update the user's interactive namespace with a variable
         called varname, containing the value of the call.  Your command can
         contain shell wildcards, pipes, etc.
 
         The '=' sign in the syntax is mandatory, and the variable name you
         supply must follow Python's standard conventions for valid names.
         
         (A special format without variable name exists for internal use)
 
         Options:
 
           -l: list output.  Split the output on newlines into a list before
           assigning it to the given variable.  By default the output is stored
           as a single string.
 
           -v: verbose.  Print the contents of the variable.
 
         In most cases you should not need to split as a list, because the
         returned value is a special type of string which can automatically
         provide its contents either as a list (split on newlines) or as a
         space-separated string.  These are convenient, respectively, either
         for sequential processing or to be passed to a shell command.
 
         For example:
 
         # all-random
         
             # Capture into variable a
             In [1]: sc a=ls *py
 
             # a is a string with embedded newlines
             In [2]: a
             Out[2]: 'setup.py\\nwin32_manual_post_install.py'
 
             # which can be seen as a list:
             In [3]: a.l
             Out[3]: ['setup.py', 'win32_manual_post_install.py']
 
             # or as a whitespace-separated string:
             In [4]: a.s
             Out[4]: 'setup.py win32_manual_post_install.py'
 
             # a.s is useful to pass as a single command line:
             In [5]: !wc -l $a.s
               146 setup.py
               130 win32_manual_post_install.py
               276 total
 
             # while the list form is useful to loop over:
             In [6]: for f in a.l:
               ...:      !wc -l $f
               ...:
             146 setup.py
             130 win32_manual_post_install.py
 
         Similiarly, the lists returned by the -l option are also special, in
         the sense that you can equally invoke the .s attribute on them to
         automatically get a whitespace-separated string from their contents:
 
             In [7]: sc -l b=ls *py
 
             In [8]: b
             Out[8]: ['setup.py', 'win32_manual_post_install.py']
 
             In [9]: b.s
             Out[9]: 'setup.py win32_manual_post_install.py'
 
         In summary, both the lists and strings used for ouptut capture have
         the following special attributes:
 
             .l (or .list) : value as list.
             .n (or .nlstr): value as newline-separated string.
             .s (or .spstr): value as space-separated string.

         output is _returned_, it will be stored in ipython's regular output
         cache Out[N] and in the '_N' automatic variables.
 
         Notes:
 
         1) If an input line begins with '!!', then %sx is automatically
         invoked.  That is, while:
           !ls
         causes ipython to simply issue system('ls'), typing
           !!ls
         is a shorthand equivalent to:
           %sx ls
         
         2) %sx differs from %sc in that %sx automatically splits into a list,
         like '%sc -l'.  The reason for this is to make it as easy as possible
         to process line-oriented shell output via further python commands.
         %sc is meant to provide much finer control, but requires more
         typing.
 
         3) Just like %sc -l, this is a list with special attributes:
 
           .l (or .list) : value as list.
           .n (or .nlstr): value as newline-separated string.
           .s (or .spstr): value as whitespace-separated string.
 
         This is very useful when trying to use such lists as arguments to

         This mode is intended to make IPython behave as much as possible like a
         plain Python shell, from the perspective of how its prompts, exceptions
         and output look.  This makes it easy to copy and paste parts of a
         session into doctests.  It does so by:
 
         - Changing the prompts to the classic ``>>>`` ones.
         - Changing the exception reporting mode to 'Plain'.
         - Disabling pretty-printing of output.
 
         Note that IPython also supports the pasting of code snippets that have
         leading '>>>' and '...' prompts in them.  This means that you can paste
         doctests from files or docstrings (even if they have leading
         whitespace), and the code will execute correctly.  You can then use
         '%history -t' to see the translated history; this will give you the
         input after removal of all the leading prompts and whitespace, which
         can be pasted back into an editor.
 
         With these features, you can switch into this mode easily whenever you
         need to do testing and changes to doctests, without having to leave
         your existing IPython session.

         Connection information for the Hub's registration.  If a json connector
         file is given, then likely no further configuration is necessary.
         [Default: use profile]
     profile : bytes
         The name of the Cluster profile to be used to find connector information.
         [Default: 'default']
     context : zmq.Context
         Pass an existing zmq.Context instance, otherwise the client will create its own.
     debug : bool
         flag for lots of message printing for debug purposes
     timeout : int/float 
         time (in seconds) to wait for connection replies from the Hub
         [Default: 10]
  
     #-------------- session related args ----------------
     
     config : Config object
         If specified, this will be relayed to the Session for configuration
     username : str
         set username for the session object
     packer : str (import_string) or callable
         Can be either the simple keyword 'json' or 'pickle', or an import_string to a
         function to serialize messages. Must support same input as
         JSON, and output must be bytes.
         You can pass a callable directly as `pack`
     unpacker : str (import_string) or callable
         The inverse of packer.  Only necessary if packer is specified as *not* one
         of 'json' or 'pickle'.
     
     #-------------- ssh related args ----------------
     # These are args for configuring the ssh tunnel to be used
     # credentials are used to forward connections over ssh to the Controller
     # Note that the ip given in `addr` needs to be relative to sshserver
     # The most basic case is to leave addr as pointing to localhost (127.0.0.1),
     # and set sshserver as the same machine the Controller is on. However, 
     # the only requirement is that sshserver is able to see the Controller
     # (i.e. is within the same trusted network).
     
     sshserver : str
         A string of the form passed to ssh, i.e. 'server.tld' or '[e-mail]:port'
         If keyfile or password is specified, and this is not, it will default to
         the ip given in addr.
     sshkey : str; path to public ssh key file
         This specifies a key to be used in ssh login, default None.
         Regular default ssh keys will be used without specifying this argument.
     password : str 
         Your ssh password to sshserver. Note that if this is left None,
         you will be prompted for it if passwordless key based login is unavailable.
     paramiko : bool
         flag for whether to use paramiko instead of shell ssh for tunneling.
         [default: True on win32, False else]
     
     ------- exec authentication args -------
     If even localhost is untrusted, you can have some protection against
     unauthorized execution by signing messages with HMAC digests.  
     Messages are still sent as cleartext, so if someone can snoop your 
     loopback traffic this will not protect your privacy, but will prevent
     unauthorized execution.
     
     exec_key : str
         an authentication key or file containing a key
         default: None
     
     
     Attributes
     ----------
     
     ids : list of int engine IDs
         requesting the ids attribute always synchronizes
         the registration state. To request ids without synchronization,
         use semi-private _ids attributes.
     
     history : list of msg_ids
         a list of msg_ids, keeping track of all the execution
         messages you have submitted in order.
     
     outstanding : set of msg_ids
         a set of msg_ids that have been submitted, but whose
         results have not yet been received.
     
     results : dict
         a dict of all our results, keyed by msg_id
     
     block : bool
         determines default behavior when block not specified
         in execution methods
     
     Methods
     -------
     
     spin
         flushes incoming results and registration state changes
         control methods spin, and requesting `ids` also ensures up to date
     
     wait
         wait on one or more msg_ids
     
     execution methods
         apply
         legacy: execute, run
     
     data movement
         push, pull, scatter, gather
     
     query methods

 ===========================================
 Starting the IPython controller and engines
 ===========================================
 
 To use IPython for parallel computing, you need to start one instance of
 the controller and one or more instances of the engine. The controller
 and each engine can run on different machines or on the same machine.
 Because of this, there are many different possibilities.
 
 Broadly speaking, there are two ways of going about starting a controller and engines:
 
 * In an automated manner using the :command:`ipcluster` command.
 * In a more manual way using the :command:`ipcontroller` and 
   :command:`ipengine` commands.
 
 This document describes both of these methods. We recommend that new users
 start with the :command:`ipcluster` command as it simplifies many common usage
 cases.
 
 General considerations
 ======================
 
 Before delving into the details about how you can start a controller and
 engines using the various methods, we outline some of the general issues that
 come up when starting the controller and engines. These things come up no
 matter which method you use to start your IPython cluster.
 
 Let's say that you want to start the controller on ``host0`` and engines on
 hosts ``host1``-``hostn``. The following steps are then required:
 
 1. Start the controller on ``host0`` by running :command:`ipcontroller` on
    ``host0``.
 2. Move the JSON file (:file:`ipcontroller-engine.json`) created by the 
    controller from ``host0`` to hosts ``host1``-``hostn``.
 3. Start the engines on hosts ``host1``-``hostn`` by running 
    :command:`ipengine`.  This command has to be told where the JSON file 
    (:file:`ipcontroller-engine.json`) is located.
 
 At this point, the controller and engines will be connected. By default, the JSON files
 created by the controller are put into the :file:`~/.ipython/cluster_default/security`
 directory. If the engines share a filesystem with the controller, step 2 can be skipped as
 the engines will automatically look at that location.
 
 The final step required to actually use the running controller from a client is to move
 the JSON file :file:`ipcontroller-client.json` from ``host0`` to any host where clients
 will be run. If these file are put into the :file:`~/.ipython/cluster_default/security`
 directory of the client's host, they will be found automatically. Otherwise, the full path
 to them has to be passed to the client's constructor.
 
 Using :command:`ipcluster`
 ===========================
 
 The :command:`ipcluster` command provides a simple way of starting a
 controller and engines in the following situations:
 
 1. When the controller and engines are all run on localhost. This is useful
    for testing or running on a multicore computer.
 2. When engines are started using the :command:`mpiexec` command that comes 
    with most MPI [MPI]_ implementations
 3. When engines are started using the PBS [PBS]_ batch system 
    (or other `qsub` systems, such as SGE).
 4. When the controller is started on localhost and the engines are started on 
    remote nodes using :command:`ssh`.
 5. When engines are started using the Windows HPC Server batch system.
 
 .. note::
 
     Currently :command:`ipcluster` requires that the
-    :file:`~/.ipython/cluster_<profile>/security` directory live on a shared filesystem that is
+    :file:`~/.ipython/profile_<name>/security` directory live on a shared filesystem that is
     seen by both the controller and engines. If you don't have a shared file
     system you will need to use :command:`ipcontroller` and
     :command:`ipengine` directly.
 
 Under the hood, :command:`ipcluster` just uses :command:`ipcontroller`
 and :command:`ipengine` to perform the steps described above.
 
 The simplest way to use ipcluster requires no configuration, and will
 launch a controller and a number of engines on the local machine. For instance, 
 to start one controller and 4 engines on localhost, just do::
 
     $ ipcluster start n=4
 
 To see other command line options, do::
 
     $ ipcluster -h
 
 
 Configuring an IPython cluster
 ==============================
 
 Cluster configurations are stored as `profiles`.  You can create a new profile with::
 
-    $ ipcluster create profile=myprofile
+    $ ipython profile create --cluster profile=myprofile
 
 This will create the directory :file:`IPYTHONDIR/cluster_myprofile`, and populate it
 with the default configuration files for the three IPython cluster commands. Once
 you edit those files, you can continue to call ipcluster/ipcontroller/ipengine
 with no arguments beyond ``p=myprofile``, and any configuration will be maintained.
 
 There is no limit to the number of profiles you can have, so you can maintain a profile for each
 of your common use cases. The default profile will be used whenever the
 profile argument is not specified, so edit :file:`IPYTHONDIR/cluster_default/*_config.py` to
 represent your most common use case.
 
 The configuration files are loaded with commented-out settings and explanations,
 which should cover most of the available possibilities.
 
 Using various batch systems with :command:`ipcluster`
 ------------------------------------------------------
 
 :command:`ipcluster` has a notion of Launchers that can start controllers
 and engines with various remote execution schemes.  Currently supported
 models include :command:`ssh`, :command`mpiexec`, PBS-style (Torque, SGE),
 and Windows HPC Server.
 
 .. note::
 
     The Launchers and configuration are designed in such a way that advanced
     users can subclass and configure them to fit their own system that we
     have not yet supported (such as Condor)
 
 Using :command:`ipcluster` in mpiexec/mpirun mode
 --------------------------------------------------
 
 
 The mpiexec/mpirun mode is useful if you:
 
 1. Have MPI installed.
 2. Your systems are configured to use the :command:`mpiexec` or
    :command:`mpirun` commands to start MPI processes.
 
 If these are satisfied, you can create a new profile::
 
-    $ ipcluster create profile=mpi
+    $ ipython profile create --cluster profile=mpi
 
 and edit the file :file:`IPYTHONDIR/cluster_mpi/ipcluster_config.py`.
 
 There, instruct ipcluster to use the MPIExec launchers by adding the lines:
 
 .. sourcecode:: python
 
     c.IPClusterEnginesApp.engine_launcher = 'IPython.parallel.apps.launcher.MPIExecEngineSetLauncher'
 
 If the default MPI configuration is correct, then you can now start your cluster, with::
 
     $ ipcluster start n=4 profile=mpi
 
 This does the following:
 
 1. Starts the IPython controller on current host.
 2. Uses :command:`mpiexec` to start 4 engines.
 
 If you have a reason to also start the Controller with mpi, you can specify:
 
 .. sourcecode:: python
 
     c.IPClusterStartApp.controller_launcher = 'IPython.parallel.apps.launcher.MPIExecControllerLauncher'
 
 .. note::
 
     The Controller *will not* be in the same MPI universe as the engines, so there is not
     much reason to do this unless sysadmins demand it.
 
 On newer MPI implementations (such as OpenMPI), this will work even if you
 don't make any calls to MPI or call :func:`MPI_Init`. However, older MPI
 implementations actually require each process to call :func:`MPI_Init` upon
 starting. The easiest way of having this done is to install the mpi4py
 [mpi4py]_ package and then specify the ``c.MPI.use`` option in :file:`ipengine_config.py`:
 
 .. sourcecode:: python
 
     c.MPI.use = 'mpi4py'
 
 Unfortunately, even this won't work for some MPI implementations. If you are
 having problems with this, you will likely have to use a custom Python
 executable that itself calls :func:`MPI_Init` at the appropriate time.
 Fortunately, mpi4py comes with such a custom Python executable that is easy to
 install and use. However, this custom Python executable approach will not work
 with :command:`ipcluster` currently.
 
 More details on using MPI with IPython can be found :ref:`here <parallelmpi>`.
 
 
 Using :command:`ipcluster` in PBS mode
 ---------------------------------------
 
 The PBS mode uses the Portable Batch System [PBS]_ to start the engines. 
 
 As usual, we will start by creating a fresh profile::
 
-    $ ipcluster create profile=pbs
+    $ ipython profile create --cluster profile=pbs
 
 And in :file:`ipcluster_config.py`, we will select the PBS launchers for the controller
 and engines:
 
 .. sourcecode:: python
 
     c.Global.controller_launcher = 'IPython.parallel.apps.launcher.PBSControllerLauncher'
     c.Global.engine_launcher = 'IPython.parallel.apps.launcher.PBSEngineSetLauncher'
 
 IPython does provide simple default batch templates for PBS and SGE, but you may need
 to specify your own. Here is a sample PBS script template:
 
 .. sourcecode:: bash
 
     #PBS -N ipython
     #PBS -j oe
     #PBS -l walltime=00:10:00
     #PBS -l nodes={n/4}:ppn=4
     #PBS -q {queue}
 
     cd $PBS_O_WORKDIR
     export PATH=$HOME/usr/local/bin
     export PYTHONPATH=$HOME/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages
     /usr/local/bin/mpiexec -n {n} ipengine profile_dir={profile_dir}
 
 There are a few important points about this template:
 
 1. This template will be rendered at runtime using IPython's :class:`EvalFormatter`.
    This is simply a subclass of :class:`string.Formatter` that allows simple expressions
    on keys.
 
 2. Instead of putting in the actual number of engines, use the notation
    ``{n}`` to indicate the number of engines to be started. You can also use
    expressions like ``{n/4}`` in the template to indicate the number of nodes.
    There will always be ``{n}`` and ``{profile_dir}`` variables passed to the formatter.
    These allow the batch system to know how many engines, and where the configuration
    files reside. The same is true for the batch queue, with the template variable
    ``{queue}``.
 
 3. Any options to :command:`ipengine` can be given in the batch script
    template, or in :file:`ipengine_config.py`.
 
 4. Depending on the configuration of you system, you may have to set
    environment variables in the script template.
 
 The controller template should be similar, but simpler:
 
 .. sourcecode:: bash
 
     #PBS -N ipython
     #PBS -j oe
     #PBS -l walltime=00:10:00
     #PBS -l nodes=1:ppn=4
     #PBS -q {queue}
 
     cd $PBS_O_WORKDIR
     export PATH=$HOME/usr/local/bin
     export PYTHONPATH=$HOME/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages
     ipcontroller profile_dir={profile_dir}
 
 
 Once you have created these scripts, save them with names like
 :file:`pbs.engine.template`. Now you can load them into the :file:`ipcluster_config` with:
 
 .. sourcecode:: python
 
     c.PBSEngineSetLauncher.batch_template_file = "pbs.engine.template"
     
     c.PBSControllerLauncher.batch_template_file = "pbs.controller.template"
         
 
 Alternately, you can just define the templates as strings inside :file:`ipcluster_config`.
 
 Whether you are using your own templates or our defaults, the extra configurables available are
 the number of engines to launch (``{n}``, and the batch system queue to which the jobs are to be
 submitted (``{queue}``)). These are configurables, and can be specified in
 :file:`ipcluster_config`:
 
 .. sourcecode:: python
 
     c.PBSLauncher.queue = 'veryshort.q'
     c.IPClusterEnginesApp.n = 64
 
 Note that assuming you are running PBS on a multi-node cluster, the Controller's default behavior
 of listening only on localhost is likely too restrictive.  In this case, also assuming the
 nodes are safely behind a firewall, you can simply instruct the Controller to listen for
 connections on all its interfaces, by adding in :file:`ipcontroller_config`:
 
 .. sourcecode:: python
 
     c.RegistrationFactory.ip = '*'
 
 You can now run the cluster with::
 
     $ ipcluster start profile=pbs n=128
 
 Additional configuration options can be found in the PBS section of :file:`ipcluster_config`.
 
 .. note::
 
     Due to the flexibility of configuration, the PBS launchers work with simple changes
     to the template for other :command:`qsub`-using systems, such as Sun Grid Engine,
     and with further configuration in similar batch systems like Condor.
 
 
 Using :command:`ipcluster` in SSH mode
 ---------------------------------------
 
 
 The SSH mode uses :command:`ssh` to execute :command:`ipengine` on remote
 nodes and :command:`ipcontroller` can be run remotely as well, or on localhost.
 
 .. note::
 
     When using this mode it highly recommended that you have set up SSH keys
     and are using ssh-agent [SSH]_ for password-less logins.
 
 As usual, we start by creating a clean profile::
 
-    $ ipcluster create profile=ssh
+    $ ipython profile create --cluster profile=ssh
 
 To use this mode, select the SSH launchers in :file:`ipcluster_config.py`:
 
 .. sourcecode:: python
 
     c.Global.engine_launcher = 'IPython.parallel.apps.launcher.SSHEngineSetLauncher'
     # and if the Controller is also to be remote:
     c.Global.controller_launcher = 'IPython.parallel.apps.launcher.SSHControllerLauncher'
     
 
 The controller's remote location and configuration can be specified:
 
 .. sourcecode:: python
 
     # Set the user and hostname for the controller
     # c.SSHControllerLauncher.hostname = 'controller.example.com'
     # c.SSHControllerLauncher.user = os.environ.get('USER','username')
 
     # Set the arguments to be passed to ipcontroller
     # note that remotely launched ipcontroller will not get the contents of 
     # the local ipcontroller_config.py unless it resides on the *remote host*
     # in the location specified by the `profile_dir` argument.
     # c.SSHControllerLauncher.program_args = ['--reuse', 'ip=0.0.0.0', 'profile_dir=/path/to/cd']
 
 .. note::
 
     SSH mode does not do any file movement, so you will need to distribute configuration
     files manually.  To aid in this, the `reuse_files` flag defaults to True for ssh-launched
     Controllers, so you will only need to do this once, unless you override this flag back
     to False.
 
 Engines are specified in a dictionary, by hostname and the number of engines to be run
 on that host.
 
 .. sourcecode:: python
 
     c.SSHEngineSetLauncher.engines = { 'host1.example.com' : 2,
                 'host2.example.com' : 5,
                 'host3.example.com' : (1, ['profile_dir=/home/different/location']),
                 'host4.example.com' : 8 }
 
 * The `engines` dict, where the keys are the host we want to run engines on and
   the value is the number of engines to run on that host.
 * on host3, the value is a tuple, where the number of engines is first, and the arguments
   to be passed to :command:`ipengine` are the second element.
 
 For engines without explicitly specified arguments, the default arguments are set in
 a single location:
 
 .. sourcecode:: python
 
     c.SSHEngineSetLauncher.engine_args = ['profile_dir=/path/to/cluster_ssh']
 
 Current limitations of the SSH mode of :command:`ipcluster` are:
 
 * Untested on Windows. Would require a working :command:`ssh` on Windows.
   Also, we are using shell scripts to setup and execute commands on remote
   hosts.
 * No file movement - 
 
 Using the :command:`ipcontroller` and :command:`ipengine` commands
 ====================================================================
 
 It is also possible to use the :command:`ipcontroller` and :command:`ipengine`
 commands to start your controller and engines. This approach gives you full
 control over all aspects of the startup process.
 
 Starting the controller and engine on your local machine
 --------------------------------------------------------
 
 To use :command:`ipcontroller` and :command:`ipengine` to start things on your
 local machine, do the following.
 
 First start the controller::
 
     $ ipcontroller
     
 Next, start however many instances of the engine you want using (repeatedly)
 the command::
 
     $ ipengine
 
 The engines should start and automatically connect to the controller using the
 JSON files in :file:`~/.ipython/cluster_default/security`. You are now ready to use the
 controller and engines from IPython.
 
 .. warning:: 
     
     The order of the above operations may be important.  You *must*
     start the controller before the engines, unless you are reusing connection
     information (via `-r`), in which case ordering is not important.
 
 .. note::
 
     On some platforms (OS X), to put the controller and engine into the
     background you may need to give these commands in the form ``(ipcontroller
     &)`` and ``(ipengine &)`` (with the parentheses) for them to work
     properly.
 
 Starting the controller and engines on different hosts
 ------------------------------------------------------
 
 When the controller and engines are running on different hosts, things are
 slightly more complicated, but the underlying ideas are the same:
 
 1. Start the controller on a host using :command:`ipcontroller`.
-2. Copy :file:`ipcontroller-engine.json` from :file:`~/.ipython/cluster_<profile>/security` on
+2. Copy :file:`ipcontroller-engine.json` from :file:`~/.ipython/profile_<name>/security` on
    the controller's host to the host where the engines will run.
 3. Use :command:`ipengine` on the engine's hosts to start the engines.
 
 The only thing you have to be careful of is to tell :command:`ipengine` where
 the :file:`ipcontroller-engine.json` file is located. There are two ways you
 can do this:
 
-* Put :file:`ipcontroller-engine.json` in the :file:`~/.ipython/cluster_<profile>/security`
+* Put :file:`ipcontroller-engine.json` in the :file:`~/.ipython/profile_<name>/security`
   directory on the engine's host, where it will be found automatically.
 * Call :command:`ipengine` with the ``--file=full_path_to_the_file``
   flag.
 
 The ``--file`` flag works like this::
 
     $ ipengine --file=/path/to/my/ipcontroller-engine.json
 
 .. note::
     
     If the controller's and engine's hosts all have a shared file system  
-    (:file:`~/.ipython/cluster_<profile>/security` is the same on all of them), then things
+    (:file:`~/.ipython/profile_<name>/security` is the same on all of them), then things
     will just work!
 
 Make JSON files persistent
 --------------------------
 
 At fist glance it may seem that that managing the JSON files is a bit
 annoying. Going back to the house and key analogy, copying the JSON around
 each time you start the controller is like having to make a new key every time
 you want to unlock the door and enter your house. As with your house, you want
 to be able to create the key (or JSON file) once, and then simply use it at
 any point in the future.
 
 To do this, the only thing you have to do is specify the `--reuse` flag, so that
 the connection information in the JSON files remains accurate::
 
     $ ipcontroller --reuse
 
 Then, just copy the JSON files over the first time and you are set. You can
 start and stop the controller and engines any many times as you want in the
 future, just make sure to tell the controller to reuse the file.
 
 .. note::
 
     You may ask the question: what ports does the controller listen on if you
     don't tell is to use specific ones? The default is to use high random port
     numbers. We do this for two reasons: i) to increase security through
     obscurity and ii) to multiple controllers on a given host to start and
     automatically use different ports.
 
 Log files
 ---------
 
 All of the components of IPython have log files associated with them.
 These log files can be extremely useful in debugging problems with
-IPython and can be found in the directory :file:`~/.ipython/cluster_<profile>/log`.
+IPython and can be found in the directory :file:`~/.ipython/profile_<name>/log`.
 Sending the log files to us will often help us to debug any problems.

 Introduction
 ============
 
 The Python programming language is an increasingly popular language for
 numerical computing. This is due to a unique combination of factors. First,
 Python is a high-level and *interactive* language that is well matched to
 interactive numerical work. Second, it is easy (often times trivial) to
 integrate legacy C/C++/Fortran code into Python. Third, a large number of
 high-quality open source projects provide all the needed building blocks for
 numerical computing: numerical arrays (NumPy), algorithms (SciPy), 2D/3D
 Visualization (Matplotlib, Mayavi, Chaco), Symbolic Mathematics (Sage, Sympy)
 and others.
 
 The IPython project is a core part of this open-source toolchain and is
 focused on creating a comprehensive environment for interactive and
 exploratory computing in the Python programming language. It enables all of
 the above tools to be used interactively and consists of two main components:
 
 * An enhanced interactive Python shell with support for interactive plotting
   and visualization.
 * An architecture for interactive parallel computing.
 
 With these components, it is possible to perform all aspects of a parallel
 computation interactively. This type of workflow is particularly relevant in
 scientific and numerical computing where algorithms, code and data are
 continually evolving as the user/developer explores a problem. The broad
 treads in computing (commodity clusters, multicore, cloud computing, etc.)
 make these capabilities of IPython particularly relevant.
 
 While IPython is a cross platform tool, it has particularly strong support for
 Windows based compute clusters running Windows HPC Server 2008. This document
 describes how to get started with IPython on Windows HPC Server 2008. The
 content and emphasis here is practical: installing IPython, configuring
 IPython to use the Windows job scheduler and running example parallel programs
 interactively. A more complete description of IPython's parallel computing
 capabilities can be found in IPython's online documentation
 (http://ipython.scipy.org/moin/Documentation).
 
 Setting up your Windows cluster
 ===============================
 
 This document assumes that you already have a cluster running Windows
 HPC Server 2008. Here is a broad overview of what is involved with setting up
 such a cluster:
 
 1. Install Windows Server 2008 on the head and compute nodes in the cluster.
 2. Setup the network configuration on each host. Each host should have a 
    static IP address.
 3. On the head node, activate the "Active Directory Domain Services" role 
    and make the head node the domain controller.
 4. Join the compute nodes to the newly created Active Directory (AD) domain.
 5. Setup user accounts in the domain with shared home directories.
 6. Install the HPC Pack 2008 on the head node to create a cluster.
 7. Install the HPC Pack 2008 on the compute nodes.
 
 More details about installing and configuring Windows HPC Server 2008 can be
 found on the Windows HPC Home Page (http://www.microsoft.com/hpc). Regardless
 of what steps you follow to set up your cluster, the remainder of this
 document will assume that:
 
 * There are domain users that can log on to the AD domain and submit jobs
   to the cluster scheduler.
 * These domain users have shared home directories. While shared home
   directories are not required to use IPython, they make it much easier to
   use IPython.
 
 Installation of IPython and its dependencies
 ============================================
 
 IPython and all of its dependencies are freely available and open source.
 These packages provide a powerful and cost-effective approach to numerical and
 scientific computing on Windows. The following dependencies are needed to run
 IPython on Windows:
 
 * Python 2.6 or 2.7 (http://www.python.org)
 * pywin32 (http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/)
 * PyReadline (https://launchpad.net/pyreadline)
 * pyzmq (http://github.com/zeromq/pyzmq/downloads)
 * IPython (http://ipython.scipy.org)
 
 In addition, the following dependencies are needed to run the demos described
 in this document.
 
 * NumPy and SciPy (http://www.scipy.org)
 * Matplotlib (http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/)
 
 The easiest way of obtaining these dependencies is through the Enthought
 Python Distribution (EPD) (http://www.enthought.com/products/epd.php). EPD is
 produced by Enthought, Inc. and contains all of these packages and others in a
 single installer and is available free for academic users. While it is also
 possible to download and install each package individually, this is a tedious
 process. Thus, we highly recommend using EPD to install these packages on
 Windows.
 
 Regardless of how you install the dependencies, here are the steps you will
 need to follow:
 
 1. Install all of the packages listed above, either individually or using EPD
    on the head node, compute nodes and user workstations.
 
 2. Make sure that :file:`C:\\Python27` and :file:`C:\\Python27\\Scripts` are
    in the system :envvar:`%PATH%` variable on each node.
 
 3. Install the latest development version of IPython. This can be done by
    downloading the the development version from the IPython website
    (http://ipython.scipy.org) and following the installation instructions.
 
 Further details about installing IPython or its dependencies can be found in
 the online IPython documentation (http://ipython.scipy.org/moin/Documentation)
 Once you are finished with the installation, you can try IPython out by
 opening a Windows Command Prompt and typing ``ipython``. This will
 start IPython's interactive shell and you should see something like the
 following screenshot:
 
 .. image:: ipython_shell.*
 
 Starting an IPython cluster
 ===========================
 
 To use IPython's parallel computing capabilities, you will need to start an
 IPython cluster. An IPython cluster consists of one controller and multiple
 engines:
 
 IPython controller
     The IPython controller manages the engines and acts as a gateway between 
     the engines and the client, which runs in the user's interactive IPython
     session. The controller is started using the :command:`ipcontroller`
     command.
 
 IPython engine
     IPython engines run a user's Python code in parallel on the compute nodes. 
     Engines are starting using the :command:`ipengine` command.
 
 Once these processes are started, a user can run Python code interactively and
 in parallel on the engines from within the IPython shell using an appropriate
 client. This includes the ability to interact with, plot and visualize data
 from the engines.
 
 IPython has a command line program called :command:`ipcluster` that automates
 all aspects of starting the controller and engines on the compute nodes.
 :command:`ipcluster` has full support for the Windows HPC job scheduler,
 meaning that :command:`ipcluster` can use this job scheduler to start the
 controller and engines. In our experience, the Windows HPC job scheduler is
 particularly well suited for interactive applications, such as IPython. Once
 :command:`ipcluster` is configured properly, a user can start an IPython
 cluster from their local workstation almost instantly, without having to log
 on to the head node (as is typically required by Unix based job schedulers).
 This enables a user to move seamlessly between serial and parallel
 computations.
 
 In this section we show how to use :command:`ipcluster` to start an IPython
 cluster using the Windows HPC Server 2008 job scheduler. To make sure that
 :command:`ipcluster` is installed and working properly, you should first try
 to start an IPython cluster on your local host. To do this, open a Windows
 Command Prompt and type the following command::
 
     ipcluster start n=2
 
 You should see a number of messages printed to the screen, ending with 
 "IPython cluster: started". The result should look something like the following
 screenshot:
 
 .. image:: ipcluster_start.*
 
 At this point, the controller and two engines are running on your local host.
 This configuration is useful for testing and for situations where you want to
 take advantage of multiple cores on your local computer. 
 
 Now that we have confirmed that :command:`ipcluster` is working properly, we
 describe how to configure and run an IPython cluster on an actual compute
 cluster running Windows HPC Server 2008. Here is an outline of the needed
 steps:
 
-1. Create a cluster profile using: ``ipcluster create profile=mycluster``
+1. Create a cluster profile using: ``ipython profile create --cluster profile=mycluster``
 
 2. Edit configuration files in the directory :file:`.ipython\\cluster_mycluster`
 
 3. Start the cluster using: ``ipcluser start profile=mycluster n=32``
 
 Creating a cluster profile
 --------------------------
 
 In most cases, you will have to create a cluster profile to use IPython on a
 cluster. A cluster profile is a name (like "mycluster") that is associated
 with a particular cluster configuration. The profile name is used by
 :command:`ipcluster` when working with the cluster.
 
 Associated with each cluster profile is a cluster directory. This cluster
 directory is a specially named directory (typically located in the
 :file:`.ipython` subdirectory of your home directory) that contains the
 configuration files for a particular cluster profile, as well as log files and
 security keys. The naming convention for cluster directories is:
-:file:`cluster_<profile name>`. Thus, the cluster directory for a profile named
+:file:`profile_<profile name>`. Thus, the cluster directory for a profile named
 "foo" would be :file:`.ipython\\cluster_foo`.
 
 To create a new cluster profile (named "mycluster") and the associated cluster
 directory, type the following command at the Windows Command Prompt::
 
-    ipcluster create profile=mycluster
+    ipython profile create --cluster profile=mycluster
 
 The output of this command is shown in the screenshot below. Notice how
 :command:`ipcluster` prints out the location of the newly created cluster
 directory.
 
 .. image:: ipcluster_create.*
 
 Configuring a cluster profile
 -----------------------------
 
 Next, you will need to configure the newly created cluster profile by editing
 the following configuration files in the cluster directory:
 
 * :file:`ipcluster_config.py`
 * :file:`ipcontroller_config.py`
 * :file:`ipengine_config.py`
 
 When :command:`ipcluster` is run, these configuration files are used to 
 determine how the engines and controller will be started. In most cases,
 you will only have to set a few of the attributes in these files.
 
 To configure :command:`ipcluster` to use the Windows HPC job scheduler, you
 will need to edit the following attributes in the file
 :file:`ipcluster_config.py`::
 
     # Set these at the top of the file to tell ipcluster to use the
     # Windows HPC job scheduler.
     c.Global.controller_launcher = \
         'IPython.parallel.apps.launcher.WindowsHPCControllerLauncher'
     c.Global.engine_launcher = \
         'IPython.parallel.apps.launcher.WindowsHPCEngineSetLauncher'
 
     # Set these to the host name of the scheduler (head node) of your cluster.
     c.WindowsHPCControllerLauncher.scheduler = 'HEADNODE'
     c.WindowsHPCEngineSetLauncher.scheduler = 'HEADNODE'
 
 There are a number of other configuration attributes that can be set, but
 in most cases these will be sufficient to get you started.
 
 .. warning::
     If any of your configuration attributes involve specifying the location
     of shared directories or files, you must make sure that you use UNC paths
     like :file:`\\\\host\\share`. It is also important that you specify
     these paths using raw Python strings: ``r'\\host\share'`` to make sure
     that the backslashes are properly escaped.
 
 Starting the cluster profile
 ----------------------------
 
 Once a cluster profile has been configured, starting an IPython cluster using
 the profile is simple::
 
     ipcluster start profile=mycluster n=32
 
 The ``-n`` option tells :command:`ipcluster` how many engines to start (in
 this case 32). Stopping the cluster is as simple as typing Control-C.
 
 Using the HPC Job Manager
 -------------------------
 
 When ``ipcluster start`` is run the first time, :command:`ipcluster` creates
 two XML job description files in the cluster directory:
 
 * :file:`ipcontroller_job.xml`
 * :file:`ipengineset_job.xml`
 
 Once these files have been created, they can be imported into the HPC Job
 Manager application. Then, the controller and engines for that profile can be
 started using the HPC Job Manager directly, without using :command:`ipcluster`.
 However, anytime the cluster profile is re-configured, ``ipcluster start``
 must be run again to regenerate the XML job description files. The
 following screenshot shows what the HPC Job Manager interface looks like
 with a running IPython cluster.
 
 .. image:: hpc_job_manager.*
 
 Performing a simple interactive parallel computation
 ====================================================
 
 Once you have started your IPython cluster, you can start to use it. To do
 this, open up a new Windows Command Prompt and start up IPython's interactive
 shell by typing::
 
     ipython
 
 Then you can create a :class:`MultiEngineClient` instance for your profile and
 use the resulting instance to do a simple interactive parallel computation. In
 the code and screenshot that follows, we take a simple Python function and
 apply it to each element of an array of integers in parallel using the
 :meth:`MultiEngineClient.map` method:
 
 .. sourcecode:: ipython
 
     In [1]: from IPython.parallel import *
 
     In [2]: c = MultiEngineClient(profile='mycluster')
 
     In [3]: mec.get_ids()
     Out[3]: [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 67, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14]
 
     In [4]: def f(x):
        ...:     return x**10
 
     In [5]: mec.map(f, range(15))  # f is applied in parallel
     Out[5]:
     [0,
      1,
      1024,
      59049,
      1048576,
      9765625,
      60466176,
      282475249,
      1073741824,
      3486784401L,
      10000000000L,
      25937424601L,
      61917364224L,
      137858491849L,
      289254654976L]
 
 The :meth:`map` method has the same signature as Python's builtin :func:`map`
 function, but runs the calculation in parallel. More involved examples of using
 :class:`MultiEngineClient` are provided in the examples that follow.
