447 447 IPython's 'magic' functions
448 448 ===========================
449 449
450 450 The magic function system provides a series of functions which allow you to
451 451 control the behavior of IPython itself, plus a lot of system-type
452 452 features. All these functions are prefixed with a % character, but parameters
453 453 are given without parentheses or quotes.
454 454
455 455 NOTE: If you have 'automagic' enabled (via the command line option or with the
456 456 %automagic function), you don't need to type in the % explicitly. By default,
457 457 IPython ships with automagic on, so you should only rarely need the % escape.
458 458
459 459 Example: typing '%cd mydir' (without the quotes) changes you working directory
460 460 to 'mydir', if it exists.
461 461
462 462 You can define your own magic functions to extend the system. See the supplied
463 463 ipythonrc and example-magic.py files for details (in your ipython
464 464 configuration directory, typically $HOME/.ipython/).
465 465
466 466 You can also define your own aliased names for magic functions. In your
467 467 ipythonrc file, placing a line like:
468 468
469 469 execute __IPYTHON__.magic_pf = __IPYTHON__.magic_profile
470 470
471 471 will define %pf as a new name for %profile.

769 769 use in a shell. The pattern is matched in all namespaces on the
770 770 search path. By default objects starting with a single _ are not
771 771 matched, many IPython generated objects have a single
772 772 underscore. The default is case insensitive matching. Matching is
773 773 also done on the attributes of objects and not only on the objects
774 774 in a module.
775 775
776 776 [OBJECT TYPE]
777 777
778 778 Is the name of a python type from the types module. The name is
779 779 given in lowercase without the ending type, ex. StringType is
780 780 written string. By adding a type here only objects matching the
781 781 given type are matched. Using all here makes the pattern match all
782 782 types (this is the default).
783 783
784 784 Options:
785 785
786 786 -a: makes the pattern match even objects whose names start with a
787 787 single underscore. These names are normally ommitted from the
788 788 search.
789 789
790 790 -i/-c: make the pattern case insensitive/sensitive. If neither of
791 791 these options is given, the default is read from your ipythonrc
792 792 file. The option name which sets this value is
793 793 'wildcards_case_sensitive'. If this option is not specified in your
794 794 ipythonrc file, IPython's internal default is to do a case sensitive
795 795 search.
796 796
797 797 -e/-s NAMESPACE: exclude/search a given namespace. The pattern you
798 798 specifiy can be searched in any of the following namespaces:
799 799 'builtin', 'user', 'user_global','internal', 'alias', where
800 800 'builtin' and 'user' are the search defaults. Note that you should
801 801 not use quotes when specifying namespaces.
802 802
803 803 'Builtin' contains the python module builtin, 'user' contains all
804 804 user data, 'alias' only contain the shell aliases and no python
805 805 objects, 'internal' contains objects used by IPython. The
806 806 'user_global' namespace is only used by embedded IPython instances,
807 807 and it contains module-level globals. You can add namespaces to the
808 808 search with -s or exclude them with -e (these options can be given
809 809 more than once).
810 810
811 811 Examples:
812 812
813 813 %psearch a* -> objects beginning with an a
814 814 %psearch -e builtin a* -> objects NOT in the builtin space starting in a
815 815 %psearch a* function -> all functions beginning with an a

817 817 %psearch r*.e* -> objects that start with e in modules starting in r
818 818 %psearch r*.* string -> all strings in modules beginning with r

1260 1260 Options:
1261 1261
1262 1262 -l <limit>: you can place restrictions on what or how much of the
1263 1263 profile gets printed. The limit value can be:
1264 1264
1265 1265 * A string: only information for function names containing this string
1266 1266 is printed.
1267 1267
1268 1268 * An integer: only these many lines are printed.
1269 1269
1270 1270 * A float (between 0 and 1): this fraction of the report is printed
1271 1271 (for example, use a limit of 0.4 to see the topmost 40% only).
1272 1272
1273 1273 You can combine several limits with repeated use of the option. For
1274 1274 example, '-l __init__ -l 5' will print only the topmost 5 lines of
1275 1275 information about class constructors.
1276 1276
1277 1277 -r: return the pstats.Stats object generated by the profiling. This
1278 1278 object has all the information about the profile in it, and you can
1279 1279 later use it for further analysis or in other functions.
1280 1280
1281 1281 -s <key>: sort profile by given key. You can provide more than one key
1282 1282 by using the option several times: '-s key1 -s key2 -s key3...'. The
1283 1283 default sorting key is 'time'.
1284 1284
1285 1285 The following is copied verbatim from the profile documentation
1286 1286 referenced below:
1287 1287
1288 1288 When more than one key is provided, additional keys are used as
1289 1289 secondary criteria when the there is equality in all keys selected
1290 1290 before them.
1291 1291
1292 1292 Abbreviations can be used for any key names, as long as the
1293 1293 abbreviation is unambiguous. The following are the keys currently
1294 1294 defined:
1295 1295
1296 1296 Valid Arg Meaning\\
1297 1297 "calls" call count\\
1298 1298 "cumulative" cumulative time\\
1299 1299 "file" file name\\
1300 1300 "module" file name\\
1301 1301 "pcalls" primitive call count\\
1302 1302 "line" line number\\
1303 1303 "name" function name\\
1304 1304 "nfl" name/file/line\\
1305 1305 "stdname" standard name\\
1306 1306 "time" internal time
1307 1307
1308 1308 Note that all sorts on statistics are in descending order (placing
1309 1309 most time consuming items first), where as name, file, and line number
1310 1310 searches are in ascending order (i.e., alphabetical). The subtle
1311 1311 distinction between "nfl" and "stdname" is that the standard name is a
1312 1312 sort of the name as printed, which means that the embedded line
1313 1313 numbers get compared in an odd way. For example, lines 3, 20, and 40
1314 1314 would (if the file names were the same) appear in the string order
1315 1315 "20" "3" and "40". In contrast, "nfl" does a numeric compare of the
1316 1316 line numbers. In fact, sort_stats("nfl") is the same as
1317 1317 sort_stats("name", "file", "line").
1318 1318
1319 1319 -T <filename>: save profile results as shown on screen to a text
1320 1320 file. The profile is still shown on screen.
1321 1321
1322 1322 -D <filename>: save (via dump_stats) profile statistics to given
1323 1323 filename. This data is in a format understod by the pstats module, and
1324 1324 is generated by a call to the dump_stats() method of profile
1325 1325 objects. The profile is still shown on screen.
1326 1326
1327 1327 If you want to run complete programs under the profiler's control, use

1417 1417 """Run the named file inside IPython as a program.
1418 1418
1419 1419 Usage:\\
1420 1420 %run [-n -i -t [-N<N>] -d [-b<N>] -p [profile options]] file [args]
1421 1421
1422 1422 Parameters after the filename are passed as command-line arguments to
1423 1423 the program (put in sys.argv). Then, control returns to IPython's
1424 1424 prompt.
1425 1425
1426 1426 This is similar to running at a system prompt:\\
1427 1427 $ python file args\\
1428 1428 but with the advantage of giving you IPython's tracebacks, and of
1429 1429 loading all variables into your interactive namespace for further use
1430 1430 (unless -p is used, see below).
1431 1431
1432 1432 The file is executed in a namespace initially consisting only of
1433 1433 __name__=='__main__' and sys.argv constructed as indicated. It thus
1434 1434 sees its environment as if it were being run as a stand-alone program
1435 1435 (except for sharing global objects such as previously imported
1436 1436 modules). But after execution, the IPython interactive namespace gets
1437 1437 updated with all variables defined in the program (except for __name__
1438 1438 and sys.argv). This allows for very convenient loading of code for
1439 1439 interactive work, while giving each program a 'clean sheet' to run in.
1440 1440
1441 1441 Options:
1442 1442
1443 1443 -n: __name__ is NOT set to '__main__', but to the running file's name
1444 1444 without extension (as python does under import). This allows running
1445 1445 scripts and reloading the definitions in them without calling code
1446 1446 protected by an ' if __name__ == "__main__" ' clause.
1447 1447
1448 1448 -i: run the file in IPython's namespace instead of an empty one. This
1449 1449 is useful if you are experimenting with code written in a text editor
1450 1450 which depends on variables defined interactively.
1451 1451
1452 1452 -e: ignore sys.exit() calls or SystemExit exceptions in the script
1453 1453 being run. This is particularly useful if IPython is being used to
1454 1454 run unittests, which always exit with a sys.exit() call. In such
1455 1455 cases you are interested in the output of the test results, not in
1456 1456 seeing a traceback of the unittest module.
1457 1457
1458 1458 -t: print timing information at the end of the run. IPython will give
1459 1459 you an estimated CPU time consumption for your script, which under
1460 1460 Unix uses the resource module to avoid the wraparound problems of
1461 1461 time.clock(). Under Unix, an estimate of time spent on system tasks
1462 1462 is also given (for Windows platforms this is reported as 0.0).
1463 1463
1464 1464 If -t is given, an additional -N<N> option can be given, where <N>
1465 1465 must be an integer indicating how many times you want the script to
1466 1466 run. The final timing report will include total and per run results.
1467 1467
1468 1468 For example (testing the script uniq_stable.py):
1469 1469
1470 1470 In [1]: run -t uniq_stable
1471 1471
1472 1472 IPython CPU timings (estimated):\\
1473 1473 User : 0.19597 s.\\
1474 1474 System: 0.0 s.\\
1475 1475
1476 1476 In [2]: run -t -N5 uniq_stable
1477 1477
1478 1478 IPython CPU timings (estimated):\\
1479 1479 Total runs performed: 5\\
1480 1480 Times : Total Per run\\
1481 1481 User : 0.910862 s, 0.1821724 s.\\
1482 1482 System: 0.0 s, 0.0 s.
1483 1483
1484 1484 -d: run your program under the control of pdb, the Python debugger.
1485 1485 This allows you to execute your program step by step, watch variables,
1486 1486 etc. Internally, what IPython does is similar to calling:
1487 1487
1488 1488 pdb.run('execfile("YOURFILENAME")')
1489 1489
1490 1490 with a breakpoint set on line 1 of your file. You can change the line
1491 1491 number for this automatic breakpoint to be <N> by using the -bN option
1492 1492 (where N must be an integer). For example:
1493 1493
1494 1494 %run -d -b40 myscript
1495 1495
1496 1496 will set the first breakpoint at line 40 in myscript.py. Note that
1497 1497 the first breakpoint must be set on a line which actually does
1498 1498 something (not a comment or docstring) for it to stop execution.
1499 1499
1500 1500 When the pdb debugger starts, you will see a (Pdb) prompt. You must
1501 1501 first enter 'c' (without qoutes) to start execution up to the first
1502 1502 breakpoint.
1503 1503
1504 1504 Entering 'help' gives information about the use of the debugger. You
1505 1505 can easily see pdb's full documentation with "import pdb;pdb.help()"
1506 1506 at a prompt.
1507 1507
1508 1508 -p: run program under the control of the Python profiler module (which
1509 1509 prints a detailed report of execution times, function calls, etc).
1510 1510
1511 1511 You can pass other options after -p which affect the behavior of the
1512 1512 profiler itself. See the docs for %prun for details.
1513 1513
1514 1514 In this mode, the program's variables do NOT propagate back to the
1515 1515 IPython interactive namespace (because they remain in the namespace
1516 1516 where the profiler executes them).
1517 1517
1518 1518 Internally this triggers a call to %prun, see its documentation for
1519 1519 details on the options available specifically for profiling.
1520 1520
1521 1521 There is one special usage for which the text above doesn't apply:
1522 1522 if the filename ends with .ipy, the file is run as ipython script,

1909 1909 %macro [options] name n1-n2 n3-n4 ... n5 .. n6 ...
1910 1910
1911 1911 Options:
1912 1912
1913 1913 -r: use 'raw' input. By default, the 'processed' history is used,
1914 1914 so that magics are loaded in their transformed version to valid
1915 1915 Python. If this option is given, the raw input as typed as the
1916 1916 command line is used instead.
1917 1917
1918 1918 This will define a global variable called `name` which is a string
1919 1919 made of joining the slices and lines you specify (n1,n2,... numbers
1920 1920 above) from your input history into a single string. This variable
1921 1921 acts like an automatic function which re-executes those lines as if
1922 1922 you had typed them. You just type 'name' at the prompt and the code
1923 1923 executes.
1924 1924
1925 1925 The notation for indicating number ranges is: n1-n2 means 'use line
1926 1926 numbers n1,...n2' (the endpoint is included). That is, '5-7' means
1927 1927 using the lines numbered 5,6 and 7.
1928 1928
1929 1929 Note: as a 'hidden' feature, you can also use traditional python slice
1930 1930 notation, where N:M means numbers N through M-1.
1931 1931
1932 1932 For example, if your history contains (%hist prints it):
1933 1933
1934 1934 44: x=1\\
1935 1935 45: y=3\\
1936 1936 46: z=x+y\\
1937 1937 47: print x\\
1938 1938 48: a=5\\
1939 1939 49: print 'x',x,'y',y\\
1940 1940
1941 1941 you can create a macro with lines 44 through 47 (included) and line 49
1942 1942 called my_macro with:
1943 1943
1944 In [51]: %macro my_macro 44-47 49
1944 In []: %macro my_macro 44-47 49
1945 1945
1946 1946 Now, typing `my_macro` (without quotes) will re-execute all this code
1947 1947 in one pass.
1948 1948
1949 1949 You don't need to give the line-numbers in order, and any given line
1950 1950 number can appear multiple times. You can assemble macros with any
1951 1951 lines from your input history in any order.
1952 1952
1953 1953 The macro is a simple object which holds its value in an attribute,
1954 1954 but IPython's display system checks for macros and executes them as
1955 1955 code instead of printing them when you type their name.
1956 1956
1957 1957 You can view a macro's contents by explicitly printing it with:
1958 1958
1959 1959 'print macro_name'.
1960 1960
1961 1961 For one-off cases which DON'T contain magic function calls in them you
1962 1962 can obtain similar results by explicitly executing slices from your
1963 1963 input history with:

2041 2041
2042 2042 %edit runs IPython's editor hook. The default version of this hook is
2043 2043 set to call the __IPYTHON__.rc.editor command. This is read from your
2044 2044 environment variable $EDITOR. If this isn't found, it will default to
2045 2045 vi under Linux/Unix and to notepad under Windows. See the end of this
2046 2046 docstring for how to change the editor hook.
2047 2047
2048 2048 You can also set the value of this editor via the command line option
2049 2049 '-editor' or in your ipythonrc file. This is useful if you wish to use
2050 2050 specifically for IPython an editor different from your typical default
2051 2051 (and for Windows users who typically don't set environment variables).
2052 2052
2053 2053 This command allows you to conveniently edit multi-line code right in
2054 2054 your IPython session.
2055 2055
2056 2056 If called without arguments, %edit opens up an empty editor with a
2057 2057 temporary file and will execute the contents of this file when you
2058 2058 close it (don't forget to save it!).
2059 2059
2060 2060
2061 2061 Options:
2062 2062
2063 2063 -n <number>: open the editor at a specified line number. By default,
2064 2064 the IPython editor hook uses the unix syntax 'editor +N filename', but
2065 2065 you can configure this by providing your own modified hook if your
2066 2066 favorite editor supports line-number specifications with a different
2067 2067 syntax.
2068 2068
2069 2069 -p: this will call the editor with the same data as the previous time
2070 2070 it was used, regardless of how long ago (in your current session) it
2071 2071 was.
2072 2072
2073 2073 -r: use 'raw' input. This option only applies to input taken from the
2074 2074 user's history. By default, the 'processed' history is used, so that
2075 2075 magics are loaded in their transformed version to valid Python. If
2076 2076 this option is given, the raw input as typed as the command line is
2077 2077 used instead. When you exit the editor, it will be executed by
2078 2078 IPython's own processor.
2079 2079
2080 2080 -x: do not execute the edited code immediately upon exit. This is
2081 2081 mainly useful if you are editing programs which need to be called with
2082 2082 command line arguments, which you can then do using %run.
2083 2083
2084 2084
2085 2085 Arguments:
2086 2086
2087 2087 If arguments are given, the following possibilites exist:
2088 2088
2089 2089 - The arguments are numbers or pairs of colon-separated numbers (like
2090 2090 1 4:8 9). These are interpreted as lines of previous input to be
2091 2091 loaded into the editor. The syntax is the same of the %macro command.
2092 2092
2093 2093 - If the argument doesn't start with a number, it is evaluated as a
2094 2094 variable and its contents loaded into the editor. You can thus edit
2095 2095 any string which contains python code (including the result of
2096 2096 previous edits).
2097 2097
2098 2098 - If the argument is the name of an object (other than a string),
2099 2099 IPython will try to locate the file where it was defined and open the
2100 2100 editor at the point where it is defined. You can use `%edit function`
2101 2101 to load an editor exactly at the point where 'function' is defined,
2102 2102 edit it and have the file be executed automatically.
2103 2103
2104 2104 If the object is a macro (see %macro for details), this opens up your
2105 2105 specified editor with a temporary file containing the macro's data.
2106 2106 Upon exit, the macro is reloaded with the contents of the file.
2107 2107
2108 2108 Note: opening at an exact line is only supported under Unix, and some
2109 2109 editors (like kedit and gedit up to Gnome 2.8) do not understand the
2110 2110 '+NUMBER' parameter necessary for this feature. Good editors like
2111 2111 (X)Emacs, vi, jed, pico and joe all do.
2112 2112
2113 2113 - If the argument is not found as a variable, IPython will look for a
2114 2114 file with that name (adding .py if necessary) and load it into the
2115 2115 editor. It will execute its contents with execfile() when you exit,
2116 2116 loading any code in the file into your interactive namespace.
2117 2117
2118 2118 After executing your code, %edit will return as output the code you
2119 2119 typed in the editor (except when it was an existing file). This way
2120 2120 you can reload the code in further invocations of %edit as a variable,
2121 2121 via _<NUMBER> or Out[<NUMBER>], where <NUMBER> is the prompt number of
2122 2122 the output.
2123 2123
2124 2124 Note that %edit is also available through the alias %ed.
2125 2125
2126 2126 This is an example of creating a simple function inside the editor and
2127 2127 then modifying it. First, start up the editor:
2128 2128
2129 In [1]: ed\\
2129 In []: ed\\
2130 2130 Editing... done. Executing edited code...\\
2131 Out[1]: 'def foo():\\n print "foo() was defined in an editing session"\\n'
2131 Out[]: 'def foo():\\n print "foo() was defined in an editing session"\\n'
2132 2132
2133 2133 We can then call the function foo():
2134 2134
2135 In [2]: foo()\\
2135 In []: foo()\\
2136 2136 foo() was defined in an editing session
2137 2137
2138 2138 Now we edit foo. IPython automatically loads the editor with the
2139 2139 (temporary) file where foo() was previously defined:
2140 2140
2141 In [3]: ed foo\\
2141 In []: ed foo\\
2142 2142 Editing... done. Executing edited code...
2143 2143
2144 2144 And if we call foo() again we get the modified version:
2145 2145
2146 In [4]: foo()\\
2146 In []: foo()\\
2147 2147 foo() has now been changed!
2148 2148
2149 2149 Here is an example of how to edit a code snippet successive
2150 2150 times. First we call the editor:
2151 2151
2152 In [8]: ed\\
2152 In []: ed\\
2153 2153 Editing... done. Executing edited code...\\
2154 2154 hello\\
2155 Out[8]: "print 'hello'\\n"
2155 Out[]: "print 'hello'\\n"
2156 2156
2157 2157 Now we call it again with the previous output (stored in _):
2158 2158
2159 In [9]: ed _\\
2159 In []: ed _\\
2160 2160 Editing... done. Executing edited code...\\
2161 2161 hello world\\
2162 Out[9]: "print 'hello world'\\n"
2162 Out[]: "print 'hello world'\\n"
2163 2163
2164 2164 Now we call it with the output #8 (stored in _8, also as Out[8]):
2165 2165
2166 In [10]: ed _8\\
2166 In []: ed _8\\
2167 2167 Editing... done. Executing edited code...\\
2168 2168 hello again\\
2169 Out[10]: "print 'hello again'\\n"
2169 Out[]: "print 'hello again'\\n"
2170 2170
2171 2171
2172 2172 Changing the default editor hook:
2173 2173
2174 2174 If you wish to write your own editor hook, you can put it in a
2175 2175 configuration file which you load at startup time. The default hook
2176 2176 is defined in the IPython.hooks module, and you can use that as a
2177 2177 starting example for further modifications. That file also has
2178 2178 general instructions on how to set a new hook for use once you've
2179 2179 defined it."""

2473 2473 params' (from your underlying operating system).
2474 2474
2475 2475 Aliases have lower precedence than magic functions and Python normal
2476 2476 variables, so if 'foo' is both a Python variable and an alias, the
2477 2477 alias can not be executed until 'del foo' removes the Python variable.
2478 2478
2479 2479 You can use the %l specifier in an alias definition to represent the
2480 2480 whole line when the alias is called. For example:
2481 2481
2482 2482 In [2]: alias all echo "Input in brackets: <%l>"\\
2483 2483 In [3]: all hello world\\
2484 2484 Input in brackets: <hello world>
2485 2485
2486 2486 You can also define aliases with parameters using %s specifiers (one
2487 2487 per parameter):
2488 2488
2489 2489 In [1]: alias parts echo first %s second %s\\
2490 2490 In [2]: %parts A B\\
2491 2491 first A second B\\
2492 2492 In [3]: %parts A\\
2493 2493 Incorrect number of arguments: 2 expected.\\
2494 2494 parts is an alias to: 'echo first %s second %s'
2495 2495
2496 2496 Note that %l and %s are mutually exclusive. You can only use one or
2497 2497 the other in your aliases.
2498 2498
2499 2499 Aliases expand Python variables just like system calls using ! or !!
2500 2500 do: all expressions prefixed with '$' get expanded. For details of
2501 2501 the semantic rules, see PEP-215:
2502 2502 http://www.python.org/peps/pep-0215.html. This is the library used by
2503 2503 IPython for variable expansion. If you want to access a true shell
2504 2504 variable, an extra $ is necessary to prevent its expansion by IPython:
2505 2505
2506 2506 In [6]: alias show echo\\
2507 2507 In [7]: PATH='A Python string'\\
2508 2508 In [8]: show $PATH\\

2510 2510 In [9]: show $$PATH\\
2511 2511 /usr/local/lf9560/bin:/usr/local/intel/compiler70/ia32/bin:...
2512 2512
2513 2513 You can use the alias facility to acess all of $PATH. See the %rehash
2514 2514 and %rehashx functions, which automatically create aliases for the
2515 2515 contents of your $PATH.

2831 2831 You should use the form 'var = !command' instead. Example:

2843 2843 IPython will run the given command using commands.getoutput(), and
2844 2844 will then update the user's interactive namespace with a variable
2845 2845 called varname, containing the value of the call. Your command can
2846 2846 contain shell wildcards, pipes, etc.
2847 2847
2848 2848 The '=' sign in the syntax is mandatory, and the variable name you
2849 2849 supply must follow Python's standard conventions for valid names.
2850 2850
2851 2851 (A special format without variable name exists for internal use)
2852 2852
2853 2853 Options:
2854 2854
2855 2855 -l: list output. Split the output on newlines into a list before
2856 2856 assigning it to the given variable. By default the output is stored
2857 2857 as a single string.
2858 2858
2859 2859 -v: verbose. Print the contents of the variable.
2860 2860
2861 2861 In most cases you should not need to split as a list, because the
2862 2862 returned value is a special type of string which can automatically
2863 2863 provide its contents either as a list (split on newlines) or as a
2864 2864 space-separated string. These are convenient, respectively, either
2865 2865 for sequential processing or to be passed to a shell command.
2866 2866
2867 2867 For example:
2868 2868
2869 2869 # Capture into variable a
2870 In [9]: sc a=ls *py
2870 In []: sc a=ls *py
2871 2871
2872 2872 # a is a string with embedded newlines
2873 In [10]: a
2874 Out[10]: 'setup.py\nwin32_manual_post_install.py'
2873 In []: a
2874 Out[]: 'setup.py\nwin32_manual_post_install.py'
2875 2875
2876 2876 # which can be seen as a list:
2877 In [11]: a.l
2878 Out[11]: ['setup.py', 'win32_manual_post_install.py']
2877 In []: a.l
2878 Out[]: ['setup.py', 'win32_manual_post_install.py']
2879 2879
2880 2880 # or as a whitespace-separated string:
2881 In [12]: a.s
2882 Out[12]: 'setup.py win32_manual_post_install.py'
2881 In []: a.s
2882 Out[]: 'setup.py win32_manual_post_install.py'
2883 2883
2884 2884 # a.s is useful to pass as a single command line:
2885 In [13]: !wc -l $a.s
2885 In []: !wc -l $a.s
2886 2886 146 setup.py
2887 2887 130 win32_manual_post_install.py
2888 2888 276 total
2889 2889
2890 2890 # while the list form is useful to loop over:
2891 In [14]: for f in a.l:
2892 ....: !wc -l $f
2893 ....:
2891 In []: for f in a.l:
2892 ...: !wc -l $f
2893 ...:
2894 2894 146 setup.py
2895 2895 130 win32_manual_post_install.py
2896 2896
2897 2897 Similiarly, the lists returned by the -l option are also special, in
2898 2898 the sense that you can equally invoke the .s attribute on them to
2899 2899 automatically get a whitespace-separated string from their contents:
2900 2900
2901 In [1]: sc -l b=ls *py
2901 In []: sc -l b=ls *py
2902 2902
2903 In [2]: b
2904 Out[2]: ['setup.py', 'win32_manual_post_install.py']
2903 In []: b
2904 Out[]: ['setup.py', 'win32_manual_post_install.py']
2905 2905
2906 In [3]: b.s
2907 Out[3]: 'setup.py win32_manual_post_install.py'
2906 In []: b.s
2907 Out[]: 'setup.py win32_manual_post_install.py'
2908 2908
2909 2909 In summary, both the lists and strings used for ouptut capture have
2910 2910 the following special attributes:
2911 2911
2912 2912 .l (or .list) : value as list.
2913 2913 .n (or .nlstr): value as newline-separated string.

2948 2948 %sx command
2949 2949
2950 2950 IPython will run the given command using commands.getoutput(), and
2951 2951 return the result formatted as a list (split on '\\n'). Since the
2952 2952 output is _returned_, it will be stored in ipython's regular output
2953 2953 cache Out[N] and in the '_N' automatic variables.
2954 2954
2955 2955 Notes:
2956 2956
2957 2957 1) If an input line begins with '!!', then %sx is automatically
2958 2958 invoked. That is, while:
2959 2959 !ls
2960 2960 causes ipython to simply issue system('ls'), typing
2961 2961 !!ls
2962 2962 is a shorthand equivalent to:
2963 2963 %sx ls
2964 2964
2965 2965 2) %sx differs from %sc in that %sx automatically splits into a list,
2966 2966 like '%sc -l'. The reason for this is to make it as easy as possible
2967 2967 to process line-oriented shell output via further python commands.
2968 2968 %sc is meant to provide much finer control, but requires more
2969 2969 typing.
2970 2970
2971 2971 3) Just like %sc -l, this is a list with special attributes:
2972 2972
2973 2973 .l (or .list) : value as list.
2974 2974 .n (or .nlstr): value as newline-separated string.
2975 2975 .s (or .spstr): value as whitespace-separated string.
2976 2976
2977 2977 This is very useful when trying to use such lists as arguments to
2978 2978 system commands."""

2992 2992

2994 2994 execution starts, a message will be printed indicating the job
2995 2995 number. If your job number is 5, you can use
2996 2996
2997 2997 myvar = jobs.result(5) or myvar = jobs[5].result
2998 2998
2999 2999 to assign this result to variable 'myvar'.
3000 3000
3001 3001 IPython has a job manager, accessible via the 'jobs' object. You can
3002 3002 type jobs? to get more information about it, and use jobs.<TAB> to see
3003 3003 its attributes. All attributes not starting with an underscore are
3004 3004 meant for public use.
3005 3005
3006 3006 In particular, look at the jobs.new() method, which is used to create
3007 3007 new jobs. This magic %bg function is just a convenience wrapper
3008 3008 around jobs.new(), for expression-based jobs. If you want to create a
3009 3009 new job with an explicit function object and arguments, you must call
3010 3010 jobs.new() directly.
3011 3011
3012 3012 The jobs.new docstring also describes in detail several important
3013 3013 caveats associated with a thread-based model for background job
3014 3014 execution. Type jobs.new? for details.
3015 3015
3016 3016 You can check the status of all jobs with jobs.status().
3017 3017
3018 3018 The jobs variable is set by IPython into the Python builtin namespace.
3019 3019 If you ever declare a variable named 'jobs', you will shadow this
3020 3020 name. You can either delete your global jobs variable to regain
3021 3021 access to the job manager, or make a new name and assign it manually
3022 3022 to the manager (stored in IPython's namespace). For example, to
3023 3023 assign the job manager to the Jobs name, use:
