696 696 using the (non-existent) conversion function None.
697 697
698 698 fs(None): field separator. This is the key/value separator to be used
699 699 when parsing the file. The None default means any whitespace [behavior
700 700 of string.split()].
701 701
702 702 strip(0): if 1, strip string values of leading/trailinig whitespace.
703 703
704 704 warn(1): warning level if requested keys are not found in file.
705 705 - 0: silently ignore.
706 706 - 1: inform but proceed.
707 707 - 2: raise KeyError exception.
708 708
709 709 no_empty(0): if 1, remove keys with whitespace strings as a value.
710 710
711 711 unique([]): list of keys (or space separated string) which can't be
712 712 repeated. If one such key is found in the file, each new instance
713 713 overwrites the previous one. For keys not listed here, the behavior is

39 46 2008-03-20 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
40 47
41 48 * twshell.py: New shell that runs IPython code in Twisted reactor.
42 49 Launch by doing ipython -twisted. r67.
43 50
44 51 2008-03-19 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
45 52
46 53 * Magic.py: %rehashx works correctly when shadowed system commands
47 54 have upper case characters (e.g. Print.exe). r64.
48 55
49 56 * ipy_bzr.py, ipy_app_completers.py: new bzr completer that also
50 57 knows options to commands, based on bzrtools. Uses bzrlib
51 58 directly. r66.
52 59
53 60 2008-03-16 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
54 61
55 62 * make_tarball.py: Fixed for bzr.
56 63
57 64 * ipapi.py: Better _ip.runlines() script cleanup. r56,r79.
58 65
59 66 * ipy_vimserver.py, ipy.vim: New extension for vim server mode,
60 67 by Erich Heine.
61 68
62 69 2008-03-12 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
63 70
64 71 * ipmaker.py: Force (reload?) import of ipy_user_conf and
65 72 ipy_profile_foo, so that embedded instances can be relaunched and
66 73 configuration is still done. r50
67 74
68 75 * ipapi.py, test_embed.py: Allow specifying shell class in
69 76 launch_new_instance & make_new instance. Use this in
70 77 test_embed.py. r51.
71 78
72 79 test_embed.py is also a good and simple demo of embedding IPython.
73 80
74 81
75 82 2008-03-10 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
76 83
77 84 * tool/update_revnum.py: Change to bzr revisioning scheme in
78 85 revision numbers.
79 86
80 87 * Shell.py: Threading improvements:
81 88
82 89 In multithreaded shells, do not hang on macros and o.autoexec
83 90 commands (or anything executed with _ip.runlines()) anymore. Allow
84 91 recursive execution of IPython code in
85 92 MTInteractiveShell.runsource by checking if we are already in
86 93 worker thread, and execute code directly if we are. r48.
87 94
88 95 MTInteractiveShell.runsource: execute code directly if worker
89 96 thread is not running yet (this is the case in config files). r49.
90 97
91 98 2008-03-09 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
92 99
93 100 * ipy_profile_sh.py: You can now use $LA or LA() to refer to last
94 101 argument of previous command in sh profile. Similar to bash '!$'.
95 102 LA(3) or $LA(3) stands for last argument of input history command
96 103 3.
97 104
98 105 * Shell.py: -pylab names don't clutter %whos listing.
99 106
100 107 2008-03-07 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
101 108
102 109 * ipy_autoreload.py: new extension (by Pauli Virtanen) for
103 110 autoreloading modules; try %autoreload and %aimport. Close #154.
104 111 Uses the new pre_runcode_hook.
105 112
106 113 2008-02-24 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
107 114
108 115 * platutils_posix.py: freeze_term_title works
109 116
110 117 2008-02-21 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
111 118
112 119 * Magic.py: %quickref does not crash with empty docstring
113 120
114 121 2008-02-20 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
115 122
116 123 * completer.py: do not treat [](){} as protectable chars anymore,
117 124 close #233.
118 125
119 126 * completer.py: do not treat [](){} as protectable chars anymore
120 127
121 128 * magic.py, test_cpaste.py: Allow different prefix for pasting
122 129 from email
123 130
124 131 2008-02-17 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
125 132
126 133 * Switched over to Launchpad/bzr as primary VCS.
127 134
128 135 2008-02-14 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
129 136
130 137 * ipapi.py: _ip.runlines() is now much more liberal about
131 138 indentation - it cleans up the scripts it gets
132 139
133 140 2008-02-14 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
134 141
135 142 * Extensions/ipy_leo.py: created 'ILeo' IPython-Leo bridge.
136 143 Changes to it (later on) are too numerous to list in ChangeLog
137 144 until it stabilizes
138 145
139 146 2008-02-07 Darren Dale <darren.dale@cornell.edu>
140 147
141 148 * IPython/Shell.py: Call QtCore.pyqtRemoveInputHook() when creating
142 149 an IPShellQt4. PyQt4-4.2.1 and later uses PyOS_InputHook to improve
143 150 interaction in the interpreter (like Tkinter does), but it seems to
144 151 partially interfere with the IPython implementation and exec_()
145 152 still seems to block. So we disable the PyQt implementation and
146 153 stick with the IPython one for now.
147 154
148 155 2008-02-02 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
149 156
150 157 * ipipe.py: A new ipipe table has been added: ialias produces all
151 158 entries from IPython's alias table.
152 159
153 160 2008-02-01 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
154 161
155 162 * IPython/Shell.py (MTInteractiveShell.runcode): Improve handling
156 163 of KBINT in threaded shells. After code provided by Marc in #212.
157 164
158 165 2008-01-30 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
159 166
160 167 * IPython/Shell.py (MTInteractiveShell.__init__): Fixed deadlock
161 168 that could occur due to a race condition in threaded shells.
162 169 Thanks to code provided by Marc, as #210.
163 170
164 171 2008-01-29 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
165 172
166 173 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_doctest_mode): respect the user's
167 174 settings for input separators rather than overriding them. After
168 175 a report by Jeff Kowalczyk <jtk-AT-yahoo.com>
169 176
170 177 * IPython/history.py (magic_history): Add support for declaring an
171 178 output file directly from the history command.
172 179
173 180 2008-01-21 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
174 181
175 182 * ipipe.py: Register ipipe's displayhooks via the generic function
176 183 generics.result_display() instead of using ipapi.set_hook().
177 184
178 185 2008-01-19 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
179 186
180 187 * ibrowse.py, igrid.py, ipipe.py:
181 188 The input object can now be passed to the constructor of the display classes.
182 189 This makes it possible to use them with objects that implement __or__.
183 190 Use this constructor in the displayhook instead of piping.
184 191
185 192 * ipipe.py: Importing astyle.py is done as late as possible to
186 193 avoid problems with circular imports.
187 194
188 195 2008-01-19 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
189 196
190 197 * hooks.py, iplib.py: Added 'shell_hook' to customize how
191 198 IPython calls shell.
192 199
193 200 * hooks.py, iplib.py: Added 'show_in_pager' hook to specify
194 201 how IPython pages text (%page, %pycat, %pdoc etc.)
195 202
196 203 * Extensions/jobctrl.py: Use shell_hook. New magics: '%tasks'
197 204 and '%kill' to kill hanging processes that won't obey ctrl+C.
198 205
199 206 2008-01-16 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
200 207
201 208 * ipy_completers.py: pyw extension support for %run completer.
202 209
203 210 2008-01-11 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
204 211
205 212 * iplib.py, ipmaker.py: new rc option - autoexec. It's a list
206 213 of ipython commands to be run when IPython has started up
207 214 (just before running the scripts and -c arg on command line).
208 215
209 216 * ipy_user_conf.py: Added an example on how to change term
210 217 colors in config file (through using autoexec).
211 218
212 219 * completer.py, test_completer.py: Ability to specify custom
213 220 get_endidx to replace readline.get_endidx. For emacs users.
214 221
215 222 2008-01-10 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
216 223
217 224 * Prompts.py (set_p_str): do not crash on illegal prompt strings
218 225
219 226 2008-01-08 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
220 227
221 228 * '%macro -r' (raw mode) is now default in sh profile.
222 229
223 230 2007-12-31 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
224 231
225 232 * completer.py: custom completer matching is now case sensitive
226 233 (#207).
227 234
228 235 * ultraTB.py, iplib.py: Add some KeyboardInterrupt catching in
229 236 an attempt to prevent occasional crashes.
230 237
231 238 * CrashHandler.py: Crash log dump now asks user to press enter
232 239 before exiting.
233 240
234 241 * Store _ip in user_ns instead of __builtin__, enabling safer
235 242 coexistence of multiple IPython instances in the same python
236 243 interpreter (#197).
237 244
238 245 * Debugger.py, ipmaker.py: Need to add '-pydb' command line
239 246 switch to enable pydb in post-mortem debugging and %run -d.
240 247
241 248 2007-12-28 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
242 249
243 250 * ipy_server.py: TCP socket server for "remote control" of an IPython
244 251 instance.
245 252
246 253 * Debugger.py: Change to PSF license
247 254
248 255 * simplegeneric.py: Add license & author notes.
249 256
250 257 * ipy_fsops.py: Added PathObj and FileObj, an object-oriented way
251 258 to navigate file system with a custom completer. Run
252 259 ipy_fsops.test_pathobj() to play with it.
253 260
254 261 2007-12-28 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
255 262
256 263 * IPython/dtutils.py: Add utilities for interactively running
257 264 doctests. Still needs work to more easily handle the namespace of
258 265 the package one may be working on, but the basics are in place.
259 266
260 267 2007-12-27 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
261 268
262 269 * ipy_completers.py: Applied arno's patch to get proper list of
263 270 packages in import completer. Closes #196.
264 271
265 272 2007-12-20 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
266 273
267 274 * completer.py, generics.py(complete_object): Allow
268 275 custom complers based on python objects via simplegeneric.
269 276 See generics.py / my_demo_complete_object
270 277
271 278 2007-12-13 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
272 279
273 280 * IPython/Prompts.py (BasePrompt.__nonzero__): add proper boolean
274 281 behavior to prompt objects, useful for display hooks to adjust
275 282 themselves depending on whether prompts will be there or not.
276 283
277 284 2007-12-13 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
278 285
279 286 * iplib.py(raw_input): unix readline does not allow unicode in
280 287 history, encode to normal string. After patch by Tiago.
281 288 Close #201
282 289
283 290 2007-12-12 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
284 291
285 292 * genutils.py (abbrev_cwd): Terminal title now shows 2 levels of
286 293 current directory.
287 294
288 295 2007-12-12 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
289 296
290 297 * IPython/Shell.py (_select_shell): add support for controlling
291 298 the pylab threading mode directly at the command line, without
292 299 having to modify MPL config files. Added unit tests for this
293 300 feature, though manual/docs update is still pending, will do later.
294 301
295 302 2007-12-11 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
296 303
297 304 * ext_rescapture.py: var = !cmd is no longer verbose (to facilitate
298 305 use in scripts)
299 306
300 307 2007-12-07 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
301 308
302 309 * iplib.py, ipy_profile_sh.py: Do not escape # on command lines
303 310 anymore (to \#) - even if it is a comment char that is implicitly
304 311 escaped in some unix shells in interactive mode, it is ok to leave
305 312 it in IPython as such.
306 313
307 314
308 315 2007-12-01 Robert Kern <robert.kern@gmail.com>
309 316
310 317 * IPython/ultraTB.py (findsource): Improve the monkeypatch to
311 318 inspect.findsource(). It can now find source lines inside zipped
312 319 packages.
313 320
314 321 * IPython/ultraTB.py: When constructing tracebacks, try to use __file__
315 322 in the frame's namespace before trusting the filename in the code object
316 323 which created the frame.
317 324
318 325 2007-11-29 *** Released version 0.8.2
319 326
320 327 2007-11-25 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
321 328
322 329 * IPython/Logger.py (Logger.logstop): add a proper logstop()
323 330 method to fully stop the logger, along with a corresponding
324 331 %logstop magic for interactive use.
325 332
326 333 * IPython/Extensions/ipy_host_completers.py: added new host
327 334 completers functionality, contributed by Gael Pasgrimaud
328 335 <gawel-AT-afpy.org>.
329 336
330 337 2007-11-24 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
331 338
332 339 * IPython/DPyGetOpt.py (ArgumentError): Apply patch by Paul Mueller
333 340 <gakusei-AT-dakotacom.net>, to fix deprecated string exceptions in
334 341 options handling. Unicode fix in %whos (committed a while ago)
335 342 was also contributed by Paul.
336 343
337 344 2007-11-23 Darren Dale <darren.dale@cornell.edu>
338 345 * ipy_traits_completer.py: let traits_completer respect the user's
339 346 readline_omit__names setting.
340 347
341 348 2007-11-08 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
342 349
343 350 * ipy_completers.py (import completer): assume 'xml' module exists.
344 351 Do not add every module twice anymore. Closes #196.
345 352
346 353 * ipy_completers.py, ipy_app_completers.py: Add proper apt-get
347 354 completer that uses apt-cache to search for existing packages.
348 355
349 356 2007-11-06 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
350 357
351 358 * Prompts.py: Do not update _oh and _123 when do_full_cache is not
352 359 true. Closes #194.
353 360
354 361 2007-11-01 Brian Granger <ellisonbg@gmail.com>
355 362
356 363 * iplib.py, rlineimpl.py: Applied Body Water's patches to get IPython
357 364 working with OS X 10.5 libedit implementation of readline.
358 365
359 366 2007-10-24 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
360 367
361 368 * iplib.py(user_setup): To route around buggy installations where
362 369 UserConfig is not available, create a minimal _ipython.
363 370
364 371 * iplib.py: Unicode fixes from Jorgen.
365 372
366 373 * genutils.py: Slist now has new method 'fields()' for extraction of
367 374 whitespace-separated fields from line-oriented data.
368 375
369 376 2007-10-15 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
370 377
371 378 * IPython/OInspect.py (Inspector.pinfo): fix bug that could arise
372 379 when querying objects with no __class__ attribute (such as
373 380 f2py-generated modules).
374 381
375 382 2007-10-09 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
376 383
377 384 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_time): track compilation time and report
378 385 it if longer than 0.1s (fix done to %time and %timeit). After a
379 386 SAGE bug report: http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/632.
380 387
381 388 2007-09-18 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
382 389
383 390 * genutils.py(make_quoted_expr): Do not use Itpl, it does
384 391 not support unicode at the moment. Fixes (many) magic calls with
385 392 special characters.
386 393
387 394 2007-09-14 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
388 395
389 396 * IPython/genutils.py (doctest_reload): expose the doctest
390 397 reloader to the user so that people can easily reset doctest while
391 398 using it interactively. Fixes a problem reported by Jorgen.
392 399
393 400 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.__init__): protect the
394 401 FakeModule instances used for __main__ in %run calls from
395 402 deletion, so that user code defined in them isn't left with
396 403 dangling references due to the Python module deletion machinery.
397 404 This should fix the problems reported by Darren.
398 405
399 406 2007-09-10 Darren Dale <dd55@cornell.edu>
400 407
401 408 * Cleanup of IPShellQt and IPShellQt4
402 409
403 410 2007-09-09 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
404 411
405 412 * IPython/FakeModule.py (FakeModule.__init__): further fixes for
406 413 doctest support.
407 414
408 415 * IPython/iplib.py (safe_execfile): minor docstring improvements.
409 416
410 417 2007-09-08 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
411 418
412 419 * Magic.py (%pushd, %popd, %dirs): Fix dir stack - push *current*
413 420 directory, not the target directory.
414 421
415 422 * ipapi.py, Magic.py, iplib.py: Add ipapi.UsageError, a lighter weight
416 423 exception that won't print the tracebacks. Switched many magics to
417 424 raise them on error situations, also GetoptError is not printed
418 425 anymore.
419 426
420 427 2007-09-07 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
421 428
422 429 * iplib.py: do not auto-alias "dir", it screws up other dir auto
423 430 aliases.
424 431
425 432 * genutils.py: SList.grep() implemented.
426 433
427 434 * ipy_editors.py, UserConfig/ipy_user_conf.py: Add some editors
428 435 for easy "out of the box" setup of several common editors, so that
429 436 e.g. '%edit os.path.isfile' will jump to the correct line
430 437 automatically. Contributions for command lines of your favourite
431 438 editors welcome.
432 439
433 440 2007-09-07 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
434 441
435 442 * IPython/OInspect.py (Inspector.pinfo): fixed bug that was
436 443 preventing source display in certain cases. In reality I think
437 444 the problem is with Ubuntu's Python build, but this change works
438 445 around the issue in some cases (not in all, unfortunately). I'd
439 446 filed a Python bug on this with more details, but in the change of
440 447 bug trackers it seems to have been lost.
441 448
442 449 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_dhist): restore %dhist. No, cd -TAB is
443 450 not the same, it's not self-documenting, doesn't allow range
444 451 selection, and sorts alphabetically instead of numerically.
445 452 (magic_r): restore %r. No, "up + enter. One char magic" is not
446 453 the same thing, since %r takes parameters to allow fast retrieval
447 454 of old commands. I've received emails from users who use this a
448 455 LOT, so it stays.
449 456 (magic_automagic): restore %automagic. "use _ip.option.automagic"
450 457 is not a valid replacement b/c it doesn't provide an complete
451 458 explanation (which the automagic docstring does).
452 459 (magic_autocall): restore %autocall, with improved docstring.
453 460 Same argument as for others, "use _ip.options.autocall" is not a
454 461 valid replacement.
455 462 (magic_pdef): restore %pdef & friends. Used widely, mentioned in
456 463 tutorials and online docs.
457 464
458 465 2007-09-06 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
459 466
460 467 * IPython/usage.py (quick_reference): mention magics in quickref,
461 468 modified main banner to mention %quickref.
462 469
463 470 * IPython/FakeModule.py (FakeModule): fixes for doctest compatibility.
464 471
465 472 2007-09-06 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
466 473
467 474 * ipy_rehashdir.py, ipy_workdir.py, ipy_fsops.py, iplib.py:
468 475 Callable aliases now pass the _ip as first arg. This breaks
469 476 compatibility with earlier 0.8.2.svn series! (though they should
470 477 not have been in use yet outside these few extensions)
471 478
472 479 2007-09-05 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
473 480
474 481 * external/mglob.py: expand('dirname') => ['dirname'], instead
475 482 of ['dirname/foo','dirname/bar', ...].
476 483
477 484 * Extensions/ipy_fsops.py: added, has usefull shell utils for plain
478 485 win32 installations: icp, imv, imkdir, igrep, irm, collect (collect
479 486 is useful for others as well).
480 487
481 488 * iplib.py: on callable aliases (as opposed to old style aliases),
482 489 do var_expand() immediately, and use make_quoted_expr instead
483 490 of hardcoded r"""
484 491
485 492 * Extensions/ipy_profile_sh.py: Try to detect cygwin on win32,
486 493 if not available load ipy_fsops.py for cp, mv, etc. replacements
487 494
488 495 * OInspect.py, ipy_which.py: improve %which and obj? for callable
489 496 aliases
490 497
491 498 2007-09-04 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
492 499
493 500 * ipy_profile_zope.py: add zope profile, by Stefan Eletzhofer.
494 501 Relicensed under BSD with the authors approval.
495 502
496 503 * ipmaker.py, usage.py: Remove %magic from default banner, improve
497 504 %quickref
498 505
499 506 2007-09-03 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
500 507
501 508 * Magic.py: %time now passes expression through prefilter,
502 509 allowing IPython syntax.
503 510
504 511 2007-09-01 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
505 512
506 513 * ipmaker.py: Always show full traceback when newstyle config fails
507 514
508 515 2007-08-27 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
509 516
510 517 * Magic.py: fix %cd for nonexistent dir when dhist is empty, close #180
511 518
512 519 2007-08-26 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
513 520
514 521 * ipmaker.py: Command line args have the highest priority again
515 522
516 523 * iplib.py, ipmaker.py: -i command line argument now behaves as in
517 524 normal python, i.e. leaves the IPython session running after -c
518 525 command or running a batch file from command line.
519 526
520 527 2007-08-22 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
521 528
522 529 * iplib.py: no extra empty (last) line in raw hist w/ multiline
523 530 statements
524 531
525 532 * logger.py: Fix bug where blank lines in history were not
526 533 added until AFTER adding the current line; translated and raw
527 534 history should finally be in sync with prompt now.
528 535
529 536 * ipy_completers.py: quick_completer now makes it easy to create
530 537 trivial custom completers
531 538
532 539 * clearcmd.py: shadow history compression & erasing, fixed input hist
533 540 clearing.
534 541
535 542 * envpersist.py, history.py: %env (sh profile only), %hist completers
536 543
537 544 * genutils.py, Prompts.py, Magic.py: win32 - prompt (with \yDEPTH) and
538 545 term title now include the drive letter, and always use / instead of
539 546 os.sep (as per recommended approach for win32 ipython in general).
540 547
541 548 * ipykit.py, ipy_kitcfg.py: special launcher for ipykit. Allows running
542 549 plain python scripts from ipykit command line by running
543 550 "py myscript.py", even w/o installed python.
544 551
545 552 2007-08-21 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
546 553
547 554 * ipmaker.py: finding ipythonrc-PROF now skips ipy_profile_PROF.
548 555 (for backwards compatibility)
549 556
550 557 * history.py: switch back to %hist -t from %hist -r as default.
551 558 At least until raw history is fixed for good.
552 559
553 560 2007-08-20 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
554 561
555 562 * ipapi.py, iplib.py: DebugTools accessible via _ip.dbg, to catch &
556 563 locate alias redeclarations etc. Also, avoid handling
557 564 _ip.IP.alias_table directly, prefer using _ip.defalias.
558 565
559 566
560 567 2007-08-15 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
561 568
562 569 * prefilter.py: ! is now always served first
563 570
564 571 2007-08-15 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
565 572
566 573 * IPython/iplib.py (safe_execfile): fix the SystemExit
567 574 auto-suppression code to work in Python2.4 (the internal structure
568 575 of that exception changed and I'd only tested the code with 2.5).
569 576 Bug reported by a SciPy attendee.
570 577
571 578 2007-08-13 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
572 579
573 580 * prefilter.py: reverted !c:/bin/foo fix, made % in
574 581 multiline specials work again
575 582
576 583 2007-08-13 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
577 584
578 585 * prefilter.py: Take more care to special-case !, so that
579 586 !c:/bin/foo.exe works.
580 587
581 588 * setup.py: if we are building eggs, strip all docs and
582 589 examples (it doesn't make sense to bytecompile examples,
583 590 and docs would be in an awkward place anyway).
584 591
585 592 * Ryan Krauss' patch fixes start menu shortcuts when IPython
586 593 is installed into a directory that has spaces in the name.
587 594
588 595 2007-08-13 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
589 596
590 597 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_doctest_mode): fix prompt separators in
591 598 doctest profile and %doctest_mode, so they actually generate the
592 599 blank lines needed by doctest to separate individual tests.
593 600
594 601 * IPython/iplib.py (safe_execfile): modify so that running code
595 602 which calls sys.exit(0) (or equivalently, raise SystemExit(0))
596 603 doesn't get a printed traceback. Any other value in sys.exit(),
597 604 including the empty call, still generates a traceback. This
598 605 enables use of %run without having to pass '-e' for codes that
599 606 correctly set the exit status flag.
600 607
601 608 2007-08-12 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
602 609
603 610 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.post_config_initialization):
604 611 fix problems with doctests failing when run inside IPython due to
605 612 IPython's modifications of sys.displayhook.
606 613
607 614 2007-8-9 Fernando Perez <fperez@planck.colorado.edu>
608 615
609 616 * IPython/ipapi.py (to_user_ns): update to accept a dict as well as
610 617 a string with names.
611 618
612 619 2007-08-09 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
613 620
614 621 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_doctest_mode): added new %doctest_mode
615 622 magic to toggle on/off the doctest pasting support without having
616 623 to leave a session to switch to a separate profile.
617 624
618 625 2007-08-08 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
619 626
620 627 * IPython/Extensions/ipy_profile_doctest.py (main): fix prompt to
621 628 introduce a blank line between inputs, to conform to doctest
622 629 requirements.
623 630
624 631 * IPython/OInspect.py (Inspector.pinfo): fix another part where
625 632 auto-generated docstrings for new-style classes were showing up.
626 633
627 634 2007-08-07 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
628 635
629 636 * api_changes: Add new file to track backward-incompatible
630 637 user-visible changes.
631 638
632 639 2007-08-06 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
633 640
634 641 * ipmaker.py: fix bug where user_config_ns didn't exist at all
635 642 before all the config files were handled.
636 643
637 644 2007-08-04 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
638 645
639 646 * IPython/irunner.py (RunnerFactory): Add new factory class for
640 647 creating reusable runners based on filenames.
641 648
642 649 * IPython/Extensions/ipy_profile_doctest.py: New profile for
643 650 doctest support. It sets prompts/exceptions as similar to
644 651 standard Python as possible, so that ipython sessions in this
645 652 profile can be easily pasted as doctests with minimal
646 653 modifications. It also enables pasting of doctests from external
647 654 sources (even if they have leading whitespace), so that you can
648 655 rerun doctests from existing sources.
649 656
650 657 * IPython/iplib.py (_prefilter): fix a buglet where after entering
651 658 some whitespace, the prompt would become a continuation prompt
652 659 with no way of exiting it other than Ctrl-C. This fix brings us
653 660 into conformity with how the default python prompt works.
654 661
655 662 * IPython/Extensions/InterpreterPasteInput.py (prefilter_paste):
656 663 Add support for pasting not only lines that start with '>>>', but
657 664 also with ' >>>'. That is, arbitrary whitespace can now precede
658 665 the prompts. This makes the system useful for pasting doctests
659 666 from docstrings back into a normal session.
660 667
661 668 2007-08-02 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
662 669
663 670 * IPython/Shell.py (IPShellEmbed.__call__): fix bug introduced in
664 671 r1357, which had killed multiple invocations of an embedded
665 672 ipython (this means that example-embed has been broken for over 1
666 673 year!!!). Rather than possibly breaking the batch stuff for which
667 674 the code in iplib.py/interact was introduced, I worked around the
668 675 problem in the embedding class in Shell.py. We really need a
669 676 bloody test suite for this code, I'm sick of finding stuff that
670 677 used to work breaking left and right every time I use an old
671 678 feature I hadn't touched in a few months.
672 679 (kill_embedded): Add a new magic that only shows up in embedded
673 680 mode, to allow users to permanently deactivate an embedded instance.
674 681
675 682 2007-08-01 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
676 683
677 684 * iplib.py, ipy_profile_sh.py (runlines): Fix the bug where raw
678 685 history gets out of sync on runlines (e.g. when running macros).
679 686
680 687 2007-07-31 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
681 688
682 689 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_colors): fix win32-related error message
683 690 that could appear under *nix when readline was missing. Patch by
684 691 Scott Jackson, closes #175.
685 692
686 693 2007-07-29 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
687 694
688 695 * IPython/Extensions/ipy_traits_completer.py: Add a new custom
689 696 completer that it traits-aware, so that traits objects don't show
690 697 all of their internal attributes all the time.
691 698
692 699 * IPython/genutils.py (dir2): moved this code from inside
693 700 completer.py to expose it publicly, so I could use it in the
694 701 wildcards bugfix.
695 702
696 703 * IPython/wildcard.py (NameSpace.__init__): fix a bug reported by
697 704 Stefan with Traits.
698 705
699 706 * IPython/completer.py (Completer.attr_matches): change internal
700 707 var name from 'object' to 'obj', since 'object' is now a builtin
701 708 and this can lead to weird bugs if reusing this code elsewhere.
702 709
703 710 2007-07-25 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
704 711
705 712 * IPython/OInspect.py (Inspector.pinfo): fix small glitches in
706 713 'foo?' and update the code to prevent printing of default
707 714 docstrings that started appearing after I added support for
708 715 new-style classes. The approach I'm using isn't ideal (I just
709 716 special-case those strings) but I'm not sure how to more robustly
710 717 differentiate between truly user-written strings and Python's
711 718 automatic ones.
712 719
713 720 2007-07-09 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
714 721
715 722 * completer.py: Applied Matthew Neeley's patch:
716 723 Dynamic attributes from trait_names and _getAttributeNames are added
717 724 to the list of tab completions, but when this happens, the attribute
718 725 list is turned into a set, so the attributes are unordered when
719 726 printed, which makes it hard to find the right completion. This patch
720 727 turns this set back into a list and sort it.
721 728
722 729 2007-07-06 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
723 730
724 731 * IPython/OInspect.py (Inspector.pinfo): Add support for new-style
725 732 classes in various inspector functions.
726 733
727 734 2007-06-28 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
728 735
729 736 * shadowns.py, iplib.py, ipapi.py, OInspect.py:
730 737 Implement "shadow" namespace, and callable aliases that reside there.
731 738 Use them by:
732 739
733 740 _ip.defalias('foo',myfunc) # creates _sh.foo that points to myfunc
734 741
735 742 foo hello world
736 743 (gets translated to:)
737 744 _sh.foo(r"""hello world""")
738 745
739 746 In practice, this kind of alias can take the role of a magic function
740 747
741 748 * New generic inspect_object, called on obj? and obj??
742 749
743 750 2007-06-15 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
744 751
745 752 * IPython/ultraTB.py (findsource): fix a problem with
746 753 inspect.getfile that can cause crashes during traceback construction.
747 754
748 755 2007-06-14 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
749 756
750 757 * iplib.py (handle_auto): Try to use ascii for printing "--->"
751 758 autocall rewrite indication, becausesometimes unicode fails to print
752 759 properly (and you get ' - - - '). Use plain uncoloured ---> for
753 760 unicode.
754 761
755 762 * shadow history. Usable through "%hist -g <pat>" and "%rep 0123".
756 763
757 764 . pickleshare 'hash' commands (hget, hset, hcompress,
758 765 hdict) for efficient shadow history storage.
759 766
760 767 2007-06-13 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
761 768
762 769 * ipapi.py: _ip.to_user_ns(vars, interactive = True).
763 770 Added kw arg 'interactive', tell whether vars should be visible
764 771 with %whos.
765 772
766 773 2007-06-11 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
767 774
768 775 * pspersistence.py, Magic.py, iplib.py: directory history now saved
769 776 to db
770 777
771 778 * iplib.py: "ipython -c <cmd>" now passes the command through prefilter.
772 779 Also, it exits IPython immediately after evaluating the command (just like
773 780 std python)
774 781
775 782 2007-06-05 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
776 783
777 784 * IPython/Extensions/ipipe.py: Added a new table icap, which executes a
778 785 Python string and captures the output. (Idea and original patch by
779 786 Stefan van der Walt)
780 787
781 788 2007-06-01 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
782 789
783 790 * IPython/ultraTB.py (VerboseTB.text): update printing of
784 791 exception types for Python 2.5 (now all exceptions in the stdlib
785 792 are new-style classes).
786 793
787 794 2007-05-31 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
788 795
789 796 * IPython/Extensions/igrid.py: Add new commands refresh and
790 797 refresh_timer (mapped to "R"/"F5" and to the menu) which restarts
791 798 the iterator once (refresh) or after every x seconds (refresh_timer).
792 799 Add a working implementation of "searchexpression", where the text
793 800 entered is not the text to search for, but an expression that must
794 801 be true. Added display of shortcuts to the menu. Added commands "pickinput"
795 802 and "pickinputattr" that put the object or attribute under the cursor
796 803 in the input line. Split the statusbar to be able to display the currently
797 804 active refresh interval. (Patch by Nik Tautenhahn)
798 805
799 806 2007-05-29 Jorgen Stenarson <jorgen.stenarson@bostream.nu>
800 807
801 808 * fixing set_term_title to use ctypes as default
802 809
803 810 * fixing set_term_title fallback to work when curent dir
804 811 is on a windows network share
805 812
806 813 2007-05-28 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
807 814
808 815 * %cpaste: strip + with > from left (diffs).
809 816
810 817 * iplib.py: Fix crash when readline not installed
811 818
812 819 2007-05-26 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
813 820
814 821 * generics.py: introduce easy to extend result_display generic
815 822 function (using simplegeneric.py).
816 823
817 824 * Fixed the append functionality of %set.
818 825
819 826 2007-05-25 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
820 827
821 828 * New magic: %rep (fetch / run old commands from history)
822 829
823 830 * New extension: mglob (%mglob magic), for powerful glob / find /filter
824 831 like functionality
825 832
826 833 % maghistory.py: %hist -g PATTERM greps the history for pattern
827 834
828 835 2007-05-24 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
829 836
830 837 * IPython/Extensions/ipipe.py: Added a Table ihist that can be used to
831 838 browse the IPython input history
832 839
833 840 * IPython/Extensions/ibrowse.py: Added two command to ibrowse: pickinput
834 841 (mapped to "i") can be used to put the object under the curser in the input
835 842 line. pickinputattr (mapped to "I") does the same for the attribute under
836 843 the cursor.
837 844
838 845 2007-05-24 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
839 846
840 847 * Grand magic cleansing (changeset [2380]):
841 848
842 849 * Introduce ipy_legacy.py where the following magics were
843 850 moved:

846 853
847 854 If you need them, either use default profile or "import ipy_legacy"
848 855 in your ipy_user_conf.py
849 856
850 857 * Move sh and scipy profile to Extensions from UserConfig. this implies
851 858 you should not edit them, but you don't need to run %upgrade when
852 859 upgrading IPython anymore.
853 860
854 861 * %hist/%history now operates in "raw" mode by default. To get the old
855 862 behaviour, run '%hist -n' (native mode).
856 863
857 864 * split ipy_stock_completers.py to ipy_stock_completers.py and
858 865 ipy_app_completers.py. Stock completers (%cd, import, %run) are now
859 866 installed as default.
860 867
861 868 * sh profile now installs ipy_signals.py, for (hopefully) better ctrl+c
862 869 handling.
863 870
864 871 * iplib.py, ipapi.py: _ip.set_next_input(s) sets the next ("default")
865 872 input if readline is available.
866 873
867 874 2007-05-23 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
868 875
869 876 * macro.py: %store uses __getstate__ properly
870 877
871 878 * exesetup.py: added new setup script for creating
872 879 standalone IPython executables with py2exe (i.e.
873 880 no python installation required).
874 881
875 882 * Removed ipythonrc-scipy, ipy_profile_scipy.py takes
876 883 its place.
877 884
878 885 * rlineimpl.py, genutils.py (get_home_dir): py2exe support
879 886
880 887 2007-05-21 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
881 888
882 889 * platutil_win32.py (set_term_title): handle
883 890 failure of 'title' system call properly.
884 891
885 892 2007-05-17 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
886 893
887 894 * IPython/Extensions/ipipe.py: Fix xrepr for ifiles.
888 895 (Bug detected by Paul Mueller).
889 896
890 897 2007-05-16 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
891 898
892 899 * ipy_profile_sci.py, ipython_win_post_install.py: Create
893 900 new "sci" profile, effectively a modern version of the old
894 901 "scipy" profile (which is now slated for deprecation).
895 902
896 903 2007-05-15 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
897 904
898 905 * pycolorize.py, pycolor.1: Paul Mueller's patches that
899 906 make pycolorize read input from stdin when run without arguments.
900 907
901 908 * Magic.py: do not require 'PATH' in %rehash/%rehashx. Closes #155
902 909
903 910 * ipy_rehashdir.py: rename ext_rehashdir to ipy_rehashdir, import
904 911 it in sh profile (instead of ipy_system_conf.py).
905 912
906 913 * Magic.py, ipy_rehashdir.py, ipy_profile_sh.py: System command
907 914 aliases are now lower case on windows (MyCommand.exe => mycommand).
908 915
909 916 * macro.py, ipapi.py, iplib.py, Prompts.py: Macro system rehaul.
910 917 Macros are now callable objects that inherit from ipapi.IPyAutocall,
911 918 i.e. get autocalled regardless of system autocall setting.
912 919
913 920 2007-05-10 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
914 921
915 922 * IPython/rlineimpl.py: check for clear_history in readline and
916 923 make it a dummy no-op if not available. This function isn't
917 924 guaranteed to be in the API and appeared in Python 2.4, so we need
918 925 to check it ourselves. Also, clean up this file quite a bit.
919 926
920 927 * ipython.1: update man page and full manual with information
921 928 about threads (remove outdated warning). Closes #151.
922 929
923 930 2007-05-09 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
924 931
925 932 * IPython/Extensions/ipy_constants.py: Add Gael's constants module
926 933 in trunk (note that this made it into the 0.8.1 release already,
927 934 but the changelogs didn't get coordinated). Many thanks to Gael
928 935 Varoquaux <gael.varoquaux-AT-normalesup.org>
929 936
930 937 2007-05-09 *** Released version 0.8.1
931 938
932 939 2007-05-10 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
933 940
934 941 * IPython/Extensions/igrid.py: Incorporate html help into
935 942 the module, so we don't have to search for the file.
936 943
937 944 2007-05-02 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
938 945
939 946 * test/test_irunner.py (RunnerTestCase._test_runner): Close #147.
940 947
941 948 2007-04-30 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
942 949
943 950 * iplib.py: (pre_config_initialization) Catch UnicodeDecodeError if the
944 951 user has illegal (non-ascii) home directory name
945 952
946 953 2007-04-27 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
947 954
948 955 * platutils_win32.py: implement set_term_title for windows
949 956
950 957 * Update version number
951 958
952 959 * ipy_profile_sh.py: more informative prompt (2 dir levels)
953 960
954 961 2007-04-26 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
955 962
956 963 * IPython/Extensions/igrid.py: (igrid) Fix bug that surfaced
957 964 when the igrid input raised an exception. (Patch by Nik Tautenhahn,
958 965 bug discovered by Ville).
959 966
960 967 2007-04-26 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
961 968
962 969 * Extensions/ipy_completers.py: Olivier's module completer now
963 970 saves the list of root modules if it takes > 4 secs on the first run.
964 971
965 972 * Magic.py (%rehashx): %rehashx now clears the completer cache
966 973
967 974
968 975 2007-04-26 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
969 976
970 977 * ipython.el: fix incorrect color scheme, reported by Stefan.
971 978 Closes #149.
972 979
973 980 * IPython/PyColorize.py (Parser.format2): fix state-handling
974 981 logic. I still don't like how that code handles state, but at
975 982 least now it should be correct, if inelegant. Closes #146.
976 983
977 984 2007-04-25 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
978 985
979 986 * Extensions/ipy_which.py: added extension for %which magic, works
980 987 a lot like unix 'which' but also finds and expands aliases, and
981 988 allows wildcards.
982 989
983 990 * ipapi.py (expand_alias): Now actually *return* the expanded alias,
984 991 as opposed to returning nothing.
985 992
986 993 * UserConfig/ipy_user_conf.py, ipy_profile_sh.py: do not import
987 994 ipy_stock_completers on default profile, do import on sh profile.
988 995
989 996 2007-04-22 Jorgen Stenarson <jorgen.stenarson@bostream.nu>
990 997
991 998 * Fix bug in iplib.py/safe_execfile when launching ipython with a script
992 999 like ipython.py foo.py which raised a IndexError.
993 1000
994 1001 2007-04-21 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
995 1002
996 1003 * Extensions/ipy_extutil.py: added extension to manage other ipython
997 1004 extensions. Now only supports 'ls' == list extensions.
998 1005
999 1006 2007-04-20 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1000 1007
1001 1008 * IPython/Debugger.py (BdbQuit_excepthook): fix small bug that
1002 1009 would prevent use of the exception system outside of a running
1003 1010 IPython instance.
1004 1011
1005 1012 2007-04-20 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1006 1013
1007 1014 * Extensions/ipy_render.py: added extension for easy
1008 1015 interactive text template rendering (to clipboard). Uses Ka-Ping Yee's
1009 1016 'Iptl' template notation,
1010 1017
1011 1018 * Extensions/ipy_completers.py: introduced Olivier Lauzanne's
1012 1019 safer & faster 'import' completer.
1013 1020
1014 1021 * ipapi.py: Introduced new ipapi methods, _ip.defmacro(name, value)
1015 1022 and _ip.defalias(name, command).
1016 1023
1017 1024 * Extensions/ipy_exportdb.py: New extension for exporting all the
1018 1025 %store'd data in a portable format (normal ipapi calls like
1019 1026 defmacro() etc.)
1020 1027
1021 1028 2007-04-19 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1022 1029
1023 1030 * upgrade_dir.py: skip junk files like *.pyc
1024 1031
1025 1032 * Release.py: version number to 0.8.1
1026 1033
1027 1034 2007-04-18 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1028 1035
1029 1036 * iplib.py (safe_execfile): make "ipython foo.py" work with 2.5.1c1
1030 1037 and later on win32.
1031 1038
1032 1039 2007-04-16 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1033 1040
1034 1041 * iplib.py (showtraceback): Do not crash when running w/o readline.
1035 1042
1036 1043 2007-04-12 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1037 1044
1038 1045 * IPython/Extensions/ipipe.py: (ils) Directoy listings are now
1039 1046 sorted (case sensitive with files and dirs mixed).
1040 1047
1041 1048 2007-04-10 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1042 1049
1043 1050 * IPython/Release.py (version): Open trunk for 0.8.1 development.
1044 1051
1045 1052 2007-04-10 *** Released version 0.8.0
1046 1053
1047 1054 2007-04-07 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1048 1055
1049 1056 * Tag 0.8.0 for release.
1050 1057
1051 1058 * IPython/iplib.py (reloadhist): add API function to cleanly
1052 1059 reload the readline history, which was growing inappropriately on
1053 1060 every %run call.
1054 1061
1055 1062 * win32_manual_post_install.py (run): apply last part of Nicolas
1056 1063 Pernetty's patch (I'd accidentally applied it in a different
1057 1064 directory and this particular file didn't get patched).
1058 1065
1059 1066 2007-04-05 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1060 1067
1061 1068 * IPython/Shell.py (MAIN_THREAD_ID): get rid of my stupid hack to
1062 1069 find the main thread id and use the proper API call. Thanks to
1063 1070 Stefan for the fix.
1064 1071
1065 1072 * test/test_prefilter.py (esc_handler_tests): udpate one of Dan's
1066 1073 unit tests to reflect fixed ticket #52, and add more tests sent by
1067 1074 him.
1068 1075
1069 1076 * IPython/iplib.py (raw_input): restore the readline completer
1070 1077 state on every input, in case third-party code messed it up.
1071 1078 (_prefilter): revert recent addition of early-escape checks which
1072 1079 prevent many valid alias calls from working.
1073 1080
1074 1081 * IPython/Shell.py (MTInteractiveShell.runcode): add a tracking
1075 1082 flag for sigint handler so we don't run a full signal() call on
1076 1083 each runcode access.
1077 1084
1078 1085 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_whos): small improvement to diagnostic
1079 1086 message.
1080 1087
1081 1088 2007-04-04 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1082 1089
1083 1090 * IPython/Shell.py (sigint_handler): I *THINK* I finally got
1084 1091 asynchronous exceptions working, i.e., Ctrl-C can actually
1085 1092 interrupt long-running code in the multithreaded shells.
1086 1093
1087 1094 This is using Tomer Filiba's great ctypes-based trick:
1088 1095 http://sebulba.wikispaces.com/recipe+thread2. I'd already tried
1089 1096 this in the past, but hadn't been able to make it work before. So
1090 1097 far it looks like it's actually running, but this needs more
1091 1098 testing. If it really works, I'll be *very* happy, and we'll owe
1092 1099 a huge thank you to Tomer. My current implementation is ugly,
1093 1100 hackish and uses nasty globals, but I don't want to try and clean
1094 1101 anything up until we know if it actually works.
1095 1102
1096 1103 NOTE: this feature needs ctypes to work. ctypes is included in
1097 1104 Python2.5, but 2.4 users will need to manually install it. This
1098 1105 feature makes multi-threaded shells so much more usable that it's
1099 1106 a minor price to pay (ctypes is very easy to install, already a
1100 1107 requirement for win32 and available in major linux distros).
1101 1108
1102 1109 2007-04-04 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1103 1110
1104 1111 * Extensions/ipy_completers.py, ipy_stock_completers.py:
1105 1112 Moved implementations of 'bundled' completers to ipy_completers.py,
1106 1113 they are only enabled in ipy_stock_completers.py.
1107 1114
1108 1115 2007-04-04 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1109 1116
1110 1117 * IPython/PyColorize.py (Parser.format2): Fix identation of
1111 1118 colorzied output and return early if color scheme is NoColor, to
1112 1119 avoid unnecessary and expensive tokenization. Closes #131.
1113 1120
1114 1121 2007-04-03 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1115 1122
1116 1123 * IPython/Debugger.py: disable the use of pydb version 1.17. It
1117 1124 has a critical bug (a missing import that makes post-mortem not
1118 1125 work at all). Unfortunately as of this time, this is the version
1119 1126 shipped with Ubuntu Edgy, so quite a few people have this one. I
1120 1127 hope Edgy will update to a more recent package.
1121 1128
1122 1129 2007-04-02 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1123 1130
1124 1131 * IPython/iplib.py (_prefilter): close #52, second part of a patch
1125 1132 set by Stefan (only the first part had been applied before).
1126 1133
1127 1134 * IPython/Extensions/ipy_stock_completers.py (module_completer):
1128 1135 remove usage of the dangerous pkgutil.walk_packages(). See
1129 1136 details in comments left in the code.
1130 1137
1131 1138 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_whos): add support for numpy arrays
1132 1139 similar to what we had for Numeric.
1133 1140
1134 1141 * IPython/completer.py (IPCompleter.complete): extend the
1135 1142 complete() call API to support completions by other mechanisms
1136 1143 than readline. Closes #109.
1137 1144
1138 1145 * IPython/iplib.py (safe_execfile): add a safeguard under Win32 to
1139 1146 protect against a bug in Python's execfile(). Closes #123.
1140 1147
1141 1148 2007-04-01 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1142 1149
1143 1150 * IPython/iplib.py (split_user_input): ensure that when splitting
1144 1151 user input, the part that can be treated as a python name is pure
1145 1152 ascii (Python identifiers MUST be pure ascii). Part of the
1146 1153 ongoing Unicode support work.
1147 1154
1148 1155 * IPython/Prompts.py (prompt_specials_color): Add \N for the
1149 1156 actual prompt number, without any coloring. This allows users to
1150 1157 produce numbered prompts with their own colors. Added after a
1151 1158 report/request by Thorsten Kampe <thorsten-AT-thorstenkampe.de>.
1152 1159
1153 1160 2007-03-31 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1154 1161
1155 1162 * IPython/Extensions/igrid.py: Map the return key
1156 1163 to enter() and shift-return to enterattr().
1157 1164
1158 1165 2007-03-30 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1159 1166
1160 1167 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_psearch): add unicode support by
1161 1168 encoding to ascii the input, since this routine also only deals
1162 1169 with valid Python names. Fixes a bug reported by Stefan.
1163 1170
1164 1171 2007-03-29 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1165 1172
1166 1173 * IPython/Magic.py (_inspect): convert unicode input into ascii
1167 1174 before trying to evaluate it as a Python identifier. This fixes a
1168 1175 problem that the new unicode support had introduced when analyzing
1169 1176 long definition lines for functions.
1170 1177
1171 1178 2007-03-24 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1172 1179
1173 1180 * IPython/Extensions/igrid.py: Fix picking. Using
1174 1181 igrid with wxPython 2.6 and -wthread should work now.
1175 1182 igrid.display() simply tries to create a frame without
1176 1183 an application. Only if this fails an application is created.
1177 1184
1178 1185 2007-03-23 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1179 1186
1180 1187 * IPython/Extensions/path.py: Updated to version 2.2.
1181 1188
1182 1189 2007-03-23 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1183 1190
1184 1191 * iplib.py: recursive alias expansion now works better, so that
1185 1192 cases like 'top' -> 'd:/cygwin/top' -> 'ls :/cygwin/top'
1186 1193 doesn't trip up the process, if 'd' has been aliased to 'ls'.
1187 1194
1188 1195 * Extensions/ipy_gnuglobal.py added, provides %global magic
1189 1196 for users of http://www.gnu.org/software/global
1190 1197
1191 1198 * iplib.py: '!command /?' now doesn't invoke IPython's help system.
1192 1199 Closes #52. Patch by Stefan van der Walt.
1193 1200
1194 1201 2007-03-23 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1195 1202
1196 1203 * IPython/FakeModule.py (FakeModule.__init__): Small fix to
1197 1204 respect the __file__ attribute when using %run. Thanks to a bug
1198 1205 report by Sebastian Rooks <sebastian.rooks-AT-free.fr>.
1199 1206
1200 1207 2007-03-22 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1201 1208
1202 1209 * IPython/iplib.py (raw_input): Fix mishandling of unicode at
1203 1210 input. Patch sent by Stefan.
1204 1211
1205 1212 2007-03-20 Jorgen Stenarson <jorgen.stenarson@bostream.nu>
1206 1213 * IPython/Extensions/ipy_stock_completer.py
1207 1214 shlex_split, fix bug in shlex_split. len function
1208 1215 call was missing an if statement. Caused shlex_split to
1209 1216 sometimes return "" as last element.
1210 1217
1211 1218 2007-03-18 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1212 1219
1213 1220 * IPython/completer.py
1214 1221 (IPCompleter.file_matches.single_dir_expand): fix a problem
1215 1222 reported by Stefan, where directories containign a single subdir
1216 1223 would be completed too early.
1217 1224
1218 1225 * IPython/Shell.py (_load_pylab): Make the execution of 'from
1219 1226 pylab import *' when -pylab is given be optional. A new flag,
1220 1227 pylab_import_all controls this behavior, the default is True for
1221 1228 backwards compatibility.
1222 1229
1223 1230 * IPython/ultraTB.py (_formatTracebackLines): Added (slightly
1224 1231 modified) R. Bernstein's patch for fully syntax highlighted
1225 1232 tracebacks. The functionality is also available under ultraTB for
1226 1233 non-ipython users (someone using ultraTB but outside an ipython
1227 1234 session). They can select the color scheme by setting the
1228 1235 module-level global DEFAULT_SCHEME. The highlight functionality
1229 1236 also works when debugging.
1230 1237
1231 1238 * IPython/genutils.py (IOStream.close): small patch by
1232 1239 R. Bernstein for improved pydb support.
1233 1240
1234 1241 * IPython/Debugger.py (Pdb.format_stack_entry): Added patch by
1235 1242 DaveS <davls@telus.net> to improve support of debugging under
1236 1243 NTEmacs, including improved pydb behavior.
1237 1244
1238 1245 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_prun): Fix saving of profile info for
1239 1246 Python 2.5, where the stats object API changed a little. Thanks
1240 1247 to a bug report by Paul Smith <paul.smith-AT-catugmt.com>.
1241 1248
1242 1249 * IPython/ColorANSI.py (InputTermColors.Normal): applied Nicolas
1243 1250 Pernetty's patch to improve support for (X)Emacs under Win32.
1244 1251
1245 1252 2007-03-17 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1246 1253
1247 1254 * IPython/Shell.py (hijack_wx): ipmort WX with current semantics
1248 1255 to quiet a deprecation warning that fires with Wx 2.8. Thanks to
1249 1256 a report by Nik Tautenhahn.
1250 1257
1251 1258 2007-03-16 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1252 1259
1253 1260 * setup.py: Add the igrid help files to the list of data files
1254 1261 to be installed alongside igrid.
1255 1262 * IPython/Extensions/igrid.py: (Patch by Nik Tautenhahn)
1256 1263 Show the input object of the igrid browser as the window tile.
1257 1264 Show the object the cursor is on in the statusbar.
1258 1265
1259 1266 2007-03-15 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1260 1267
1261 1268 * Extensions/ipy_stock_completers.py: Fixed exception
1262 1269 on mismatching quotes in %run completer. Patch by
1263 1270 Jorgen Stenarson. Closes #127.
1264 1271
1265 1272 2007-03-14 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1266 1273
1267 1274 * Extensions/ext_rehashdir.py: Do not do auto_alias
1268 1275 in %rehashdir, it clobbers %store'd aliases.
1269 1276
1270 1277 * UserConfig/ipy_profile_sh.py: envpersist.py extension
1271 1278 (beefed up %env) imported for sh profile.
1272 1279
1273 1280 2007-03-10 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1274 1281
1275 1282 * IPython/Extensions/ipipe.py: Prefer ibrowse over igrid
1276 1283 as the default browser.
1277 1284 * IPython/Extensions/igrid.py: Make a few igrid attributes private.
1278 1285 As igrid displays all attributes it ever encounters, fetch() (which has
1279 1286 been renamed to _fetch()) doesn't have to recalculate the display attributes
1280 1287 every time a new item is fetched. This should speed up scrolling.
1281 1288
1282 1289 2007-03-10 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1283 1290
1284 1291 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.__init__): fix for Alex
1285 1292 Schmolck's recently reported tab-completion bug (my previous one
1286 1293 had a problem). Patch by Dan Milstein <danmil-AT-comcast.net>.
1287 1294
1288 1295 2007-03-09 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1289 1296
1290 1297 * IPython/Extensions/igrid.py: Patch by Nik Tautenhahn:
1291 1298 Close help window if exiting igrid.
1292 1299
1293 1300 2007-03-02 Jorgen Stenarson <jorgen.stenarson@bostream.nu>
1294 1301
1295 1302 * IPython/Extensions/ipy_defaults.py: Check if readline is available
1296 1303 before calling functions from readline.
1297 1304
1298 1305 2007-03-02 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1299 1306
1300 1307 * IPython/Extensions/igrid.py: Add Nik Tautenhahns igrid extension.
1301 1308 igrid is a wxPython-based display object for ipipe. If your system has
1302 1309 wx installed igrid will be the default display. Without wx ipipe falls
1303 1310 back to ibrowse (which needs curses). If no curses is installed ipipe
1304 1311 falls back to idump.
1305 1312
1306 1313 2007-03-01 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1307 1314
1308 1315 * IPython/iplib.py (split_user_inputBROKEN): temporarily disable
1309 1316 my changes from yesterday, they introduced bugs. Will reactivate
1310 1317 once I get a correct solution, which will be much easier thanks to
1311 1318 Dan Milstein's new prefilter test suite.
1312 1319
1313 1320 2007-02-28 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1314 1321
1315 1322 * IPython/iplib.py (split_user_input): fix input splitting so we
1316 1323 don't attempt attribute accesses on things that can't possibly be
1317 1324 valid Python attributes. After a bug report by Alex Schmolck.
1318 1325 (InteractiveShell.__init__): brown-paper bag fix; regexp broke
1319 1326 %magic with explicit % prefix.
1320 1327
1321 1328 2007-02-27 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1322 1329
1323 1330 * IPython/Shell.py (IPShellGTK.mainloop): update threads calls to
1324 1331 avoid a DeprecationWarning from GTK.
1325 1332
1326 1333 2007-02-22 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1327 1334
1328 1335 * IPython/genutils.py (clock): I modified clock() to return total
1329 1336 time, user+system. This is a more commonly needed metric. I also
1330 1337 introduced the new clocku/clocks to get only user/system time if
1331 1338 one wants those instead.
1332 1339
1333 1340 ***WARNING: API CHANGE*** clock() used to return only user time,
1334 1341 so if you want exactly the same results as before, use clocku
1335 1342 instead.
1336 1343
1337 1344 2007-02-22 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1338 1345
1339 1346 * IPython/Extensions/ipy_p4.py: Extension for improved
1340 1347 p4 (perforce version control system) experience.
1341 1348 Adds %p4 magic with p4 command completion and
1342 1349 automatic -G argument (marshall output as python dict)
1343 1350
1344 1351 2007-02-19 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1345 1352
1346 1353 * IPython/demo.py (Demo.re_stop): make dashes optional in demo
1347 1354 stop marks.
1348 1355 (ClearingMixin): a simple mixin to easily make a Demo class clear
1349 1356 the screen in between blocks and have empty marquees. The
1350 1357 ClearDemo and ClearIPDemo classes that use it are included.
1351 1358
1352 1359 2007-02-18 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1353 1360
1354 1361 * IPython/irunner.py (pexpect_monkeypatch): patch pexpect to
1355 1362 protect against exceptions at Python shutdown time. Patch
1356 1363 sumbmitted to upstream.
1357 1364
1358 1365 2007-02-14 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1359 1366
1360 1367 * IPython/Extensions/ibrowse.py: If entering the first object level
1361 1368 (i.e. the object for which the browser has been started) fails,
1362 1369 now the error is raised directly (aborting the browser) instead of
1363 1370 running into an empty levels list later.
1364 1371
1365 1372 2007-02-03 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1366 1373
1367 1374 * IPython/Extensions/ipipe.py: Add an xrepr implementation
1368 1375 for the noitem object.
1369 1376
1370 1377 2007-01-31 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1371 1378
1372 1379 * IPython/completer.py (Completer.attr_matches): Fix small
1373 1380 tab-completion bug with Enthought Traits objects with units.
1374 1381 Thanks to a bug report by Tom Denniston
1375 1382 <tom.denniston-AT-alum.dartmouth.org>.
1376 1383
1377 1384 2007-01-27 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1378 1385
1379 1386 * IPython/Extensions/ipy_stock_completers.py (runlistpy): fix a
1380 1387 bug where only .ipy or .py would be completed. Once the first
1381 1388 argument to %run has been given, all completions are valid because
1382 1389 they are the arguments to the script, which may well be non-python
1383 1390 filenames.
1384 1391
1385 1392 * IPython/irunner.py (InteractiveRunner.run_source): major updates
1386 1393 to irunner to allow it to correctly support real doctesting of
1387 1394 out-of-process ipython code.
1388 1395
1389 1396 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_cd): Make the setting of the terminal
1390 1397 title an option (-noterm_title) because it completely breaks
1391 1398 doctesting.
1392 1399
1393 1400 * IPython/demo.py: fix IPythonDemo class that was not actually working.
1394 1401
1395 1402 2007-01-24 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1396 1403
1397 1404 * IPython/irunner.py (main): fix small bug where extensions were
1398 1405 not being correctly recognized.
1399 1406
1400 1407 2007-01-23 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1401 1408
1402 1409 * IPython/Extensions/ipipe.py (xiter): Make sure that iterating
1403 1410 a string containing a single line yields the string itself as the
1404 1411 only item.
1405 1412
1406 1413 * IPython/Extensions/ibrowse.py (ibrowse): Avoid entering an
1407 1414 object if it's the same as the one on the last level (This avoids
1408 1415 infinite recursion for one line strings).
1409 1416
1410 1417 2007-01-17 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1411 1418
1412 1419 * IPython/ultraTB.py (AutoFormattedTB.__call__): properly flush
1413 1420 all output streams before printing tracebacks. This ensures that
1414 1421 user output doesn't end up interleaved with traceback output.
1415 1422
1416 1423 2007-01-10 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1417 1424
1418 1425 * Extensions/envpersist.py: Turbocharged %env that remembers
1419 1426 env vars across sessions; e.g. "%env PATH+=;/opt/scripts" or
1420 1427 "%env VISUAL=jed".
1421 1428
1422 1429 2007-01-05 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1423 1430
1424 1431 * IPython/iplib.py (showtraceback): ensure that we correctly call
1425 1432 custom handlers in all cases (some with pdb were slipping through,
1426 1433 but I'm not exactly sure why).
1427 1434
1428 1435 * IPython/Debugger.py (Tracer.__init__): added new class to
1429 1436 support set_trace-like usage of IPython's enhanced debugger.
1430 1437
1431 1438 2006-12-24 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1432 1439
1433 1440 * ipmaker.py: more informative message when ipy_user_conf
1434 1441 import fails (suggest running %upgrade).
1435 1442
1436 1443 * tools/run_ipy_in_profiler.py: Utility to see where
1437 1444 the time during IPython startup is spent.
1438 1445
1439 1446 2006-12-20 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1440 1447
1441 1448 * 0.7.3 is out - merge all from 0.7.3 branch to trunk
1442 1449
1443 1450 * ipapi.py: Add new ipapi method, expand_alias.
1444 1451
1445 1452 * Release.py: Bump up version to 0.7.4.svn
1446 1453
1447 1454 2006-12-17 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1448 1455
1449 1456 * Extensions/jobctrl.py: Fixed &cmd arg arg...
1450 1457 to work properly on posix too
1451 1458
1452 1459 * Release.py: Update revnum (version is still just 0.7.3).
1453 1460
1454 1461 2006-12-15 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1455 1462
1456 1463 * scripts/ipython_win_post_install: create ipython.py in
1457 1464 prefix + "/scripts".
1458 1465
1459 1466 * Release.py: Update version to 0.7.3.
1460 1467
1461 1468 2006-12-14 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1462 1469
1463 1470 * scripts/ipython_win_post_install: Overwrite old shortcuts
1464 1471 if they already exist
1465 1472
1466 1473 * Release.py: release 0.7.3rc2
1467 1474
1468 1475 2006-12-13 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1469 1476
1470 1477 * Branch and update Release.py for 0.7.3rc1
1471 1478
1472 1479 2006-12-13 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1473 1480
1474 1481 * IPython/Shell.py (IPShellWX): update for current WX naming
1475 1482 conventions, to avoid a deprecation warning with current WX
1476 1483 versions. Thanks to a report by Danny Shevitz.
1477 1484
1478 1485 2006-12-12 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1479 1486
1480 1487 * ipmaker.py: apply david cournapeau's patch to make
1481 1488 import_some work properly even when ipythonrc does
1482 1489 import_some on empty list (it was an old bug!).
1483 1490
1484 1491 * UserConfig/ipy_user_conf.py, UserConfig/ipythonrc:
1485 1492 Add deprecation note to ipythonrc and a url to wiki
1486 1493 in ipy_user_conf.py
1487 1494
1488 1495
1489 1496 * Magic.py (%run): %run myscript.ipy now runs myscript.ipy
1490 1497 as if it was typed on IPython command prompt, i.e.
1491 1498 as IPython script.
1492 1499
1493 1500 * example-magic.py, magic_grepl.py: remove outdated examples
1494 1501
1495 1502 2006-12-11 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1496 1503
1497 1504 * IPython/iplib.py (debugger): prevent a nasty traceback if %debug
1498 1505 is called before any exception has occurred.
1499 1506
1500 1507 2006-12-08 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1501 1508
1502 1509 * Extensions/ipy_stock_completers.py: fix cd completer
1503 1510 to translate /'s to \'s again.
1504 1511
1505 1512 * completer.py: prevent traceback on file completions w/
1506 1513 backslash.
1507 1514
1508 1515 * Release.py: Update release number to 0.7.3b3 for release
1509 1516
1510 1517 2006-12-07 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1511 1518
1512 1519 * Extensions/ipy_signals.py: Ignore ctrl+C in IPython process
1513 1520 while executing external code. Provides more shell-like behaviour
1514 1521 and overall better response to ctrl + C / ctrl + break.
1515 1522
1516 1523 * tools/make_tarball.py: new script to create tarball straight from svn
1517 1524 (setup.py sdist doesn't work on win32).
1518 1525
1519 1526 * Extensions/ipy_stock_completers.py: fix cd completer to give up
1520 1527 on dirnames with spaces and use the default completer instead.
1521 1528
1522 1529 * Revision.py: Change version to 0.7.3b2 for release.
1523 1530
1524 1531 2006-12-05 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1525 1532
1526 1533 * Magic.py, iplib.py, completer.py: Apply R. Bernstein's
1527 1534 pydb patch 4 (rm debug printing, py 2.5 checking)
1528 1535
1529 1536 2006-11-30 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1530 1537 * IPython/Extensions/ibrowse.py: Add two new commands to ibrowse:
1531 1538 "refresh" (mapped to "r") refreshes the screen by restarting the iterator.
1532 1539 "refreshfind" (mapped to "R") does the same but tries to go back to the same
1533 1540 object the cursor was on before the refresh. The command "markrange" is
1534 1541 mapped to "%" now.
1535 1542 * IPython/Extensions/ibrowse.py: Make igrpentry and ipwdentry comparable.
1536 1543
1537 1544 2006-11-29 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1538 1545
1539 1546 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_debug): new %debug magic to activate the
1540 1547 interactive debugger on the last traceback, without having to call
1541 1548 %pdb and rerun your code. Made minor changes in various modules,
1542 1549 should automatically recognize pydb if available.
1543 1550
1544 1551 2006-11-28 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1545 1552
1546 1553 * completer.py: If the text start with !, show file completions
1547 1554 properly. This helps when trying to complete command name
1548 1555 for shell escapes.
1549 1556
1550 1557 2006-11-27 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1551 1558
1552 1559 * ipy_stock_completers.py: bzr completer submitted by Stefan van
1553 1560 der Walt. Clean up svn and hg completers by using a common
1554 1561 vcs_completer.
1555 1562
1556 1563 2006-11-26 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1557 1564
1558 1565 * Remove ipconfig and %config; you should use _ip.options structure
1559 1566 directly instead!
1560 1567
1561 1568 * genutils.py: add wrap_deprecated function for deprecating callables
1562 1569
1563 1570 * iplib.py: deprecate ipmagic, ipsystem, ipalias. Use _ip.magic and
1564 1571 _ip.system instead. ipalias is redundant.
1565 1572
1566 1573 * Magic.py: %rehashdir no longer aliases 'cmdname' to 'cmdname.exe' on
1567 1574 win32, but just 'cmdname'. Other extensions (non-'exe') are still made
1568 1575 explicit.
1569 1576
1570 1577 * ipy_stock_completers.py: 'hg' (mercurial VCS) now has a custom
1571 1578 completer. Try it by entering 'hg ' and pressing tab.
1572 1579
1573 1580 * macro.py: Give Macro a useful __repr__ method
1574 1581
1575 1582 * Magic.py: %whos abbreviates the typename of Macro for brevity.
1576 1583
1577 1584 2006-11-24 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1578 1585 * IPython/Extensions/astyle.py: Do a relative import of ipipe, so that
1579 1586 we don't get a duplicate ipipe module, where registration of the xrepr
1580 1587 implementation for Text is useless.
1581 1588
1582 1589 * IPython/Extensions/ipipe.py: Fix __xrepr__() implementation for ils.
1583 1590
1584 1591 * IPython/Extensions/ibrowse.py: Fix keymapping for the enter command.
1585 1592
1586 1593 2006-11-24 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1587 1594
1588 1595 * Magic.py, manual_base.lyx: Kirill Smelkov patch:
1589 1596 try to use "cProfile" instead of the slower pure python
1590 1597 "profile"
1591 1598
1592 1599 2006-11-23 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1593 1600
1594 1601 * manual_base.lyx: Kirill Smelkov patch: Fix wrong
1595 1602 Qt+IPython+Designer link in documentation.
1596 1603
1597 1604 * Extensions/ipy_pydb.py: R. Bernstein's patch for passing
1598 1605 correct Pdb object to %pydb.
1599 1606
1600 1607
1601 1608 2006-11-22 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1602 1609 * IPython/Extensions/astyle.py: Text needs it's own implemenation of the
1603 1610 generic xrepr(), otherwise the list implementation would kick in.
1604 1611
1605 1612 2006-11-21 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1606 1613
1607 1614 * upgrade_dir.py: Now actually overwrites a nonmodified user file
1608 1615 with one from UserConfig.
1609 1616
1610 1617 * ipy_profile_sh.py: Add dummy "depth" to var_expand lambda,
1611 1618 it was missing which broke the sh profile.
1612 1619
1613 1620 * completer.py: file completer now uses explicit '/' instead
1614 1621 of os.path.join, expansion of 'foo' was broken on win32
1615 1622 if there was one directory with name 'foobar'.
1616 1623
1617 1624 * A bunch of patches from Kirill Smelkov:
1618 1625
1619 1626 * [patch 9/9] doc: point bug-tracker URL to IPythons trac-tickets.
1620 1627
1621 1628 * [patch 7/9] Implement %page -r (page in raw mode) -
1622 1629
1623 1630 * [patch 5/9] ScientificPython webpage has moved
1624 1631
1625 1632 * [patch 4/9] The manual mentions %ds, should be %dhist
1626 1633
1627 1634 * [patch 3/9] Kill old bits from %prun doc.
1628 1635
1629 1636 * [patch 1/9] Fix typos here and there.
1630 1637
1631 1638 2006-11-08 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1632 1639
1633 1640 * completer.py (attr_matches): catch all exceptions raised
1634 1641 by eval of expr with dots.
1635 1642
1636 1643 2006-11-07 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1637 1644
1638 1645 * IPython/iplib.py (runsource): Prepend an 'if 1:' to the user
1639 1646 input if it starts with whitespace. This allows you to paste
1640 1647 indented input from any editor without manually having to type in
1641 1648 the 'if 1:', which is convenient when working interactively.
1642 1649 Slightly modifed version of a patch by Bo Peng
1643 1650 <bpeng-AT-rice.edu>.
1644 1651
1645 1652 2006-11-03 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1646 1653
1647 1654 * IPython/irunner.py (main): modified irunner so it automatically
1648 1655 recognizes the right runner to use based on the extension (.py for
1649 1656 python, .ipy for ipython and .sage for sage).
1650 1657
1651 1658 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.ipconfig): new builtin, also
1652 1659 visible in ipapi as ip.config(), to programatically control the
1653 1660 internal rc object. There's an accompanying %config magic for
1654 1661 interactive use, which has been enhanced to match the
1655 1662 funtionality in ipconfig.
1656 1663
1657 1664 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_system_verbose): Change %system_verbose
1658 1665 so it's not just a toggle, it now takes an argument. Add support
1659 1666 for a customizable header when making system calls, as the new
1660 1667 system_header variable in the ipythonrc file.
1661 1668
1662 1669 2006-11-03 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1663 1670
1664 1671 * IPython/Extensions/ipipe.py: xrepr(), xiter() and xattrs() are now
1665 1672 generic functions (using Philip J. Eby's simplegeneric package).
1666 1673 This makes it possible to customize the display of third-party classes
1667 1674 without having to monkeypatch them. xiter() no longer supports a mode
1668 1675 argument and the XMode class has been removed. The same functionality can
1669 1676 be implemented via IterAttributeDescriptor and IterMethodDescriptor.
1670 1677 One consequence of the switch to generic functions is that xrepr() and
1671 1678 xattrs() implementation must define the default value for the mode
1672 1679 argument themselves and xattrs() implementations must return real
1673 1680 descriptors.
1674 1681
1675 1682 * IPython/external: This new subpackage will contain all third-party
1676 1683 packages that are bundled with IPython. (The first one is simplegeneric).
1677 1684
1678 1685 * IPython/Extensions/ipipe.py (ifile/ils): Readd output of the parent
1679 1686 directory which as been dropped in r1703.
1680 1687
1681 1688 * IPython/Extensions/ipipe.py (iless): Fixed.
1682 1689
1683 1690 * IPython/Extensions/ibrowse: Fixed sorting under Python 2.3.
1684 1691
1685 1692 2006-11-03 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1686 1693
1687 1694 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.var_expand): fix stack
1688 1695 handling in variable expansion so that shells and magics recognize
1689 1696 function local scopes correctly. Bug reported by Brian.
1690 1697
1691 1698 * scripts/ipython: remove the very first entry in sys.path which
1692 1699 Python auto-inserts for scripts, so that sys.path under IPython is
1693 1700 as similar as possible to that under plain Python.
1694 1701
1695 1702 * IPython/completer.py (IPCompleter.file_matches): Fix
1696 1703 tab-completion so that quotes are not closed unless the completion
1697 1704 is unambiguous. After a request by Stefan. Minor cleanups in
1698 1705 ipy_stock_completers.
1699 1706
1700 1707 2006-11-02 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1701 1708
1702 1709 * ipy_stock_completers.py: Add %run and %cd completers.
1703 1710
1704 1711 * completer.py: Try running custom completer for both
1705 1712 "foo" and "%foo" if the command is just "foo". Ignore case
1706 1713 when filtering possible completions.
1707 1714
1708 1715 * UserConfig/ipy_user_conf.py: install stock completers as default
1709 1716
1710 1717 * iplib.py (history_saving_wrapper), debugger(), ipy_pydb.py:
1711 1718 simplified readline history save / restore through a wrapper
1712 1719 function
1713 1720
1714 1721
1715 1722 2006-10-31 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1716 1723
1717 1724 * strdispatch.py, completer.py, ipy_stock_completers.py:
1718 1725 Allow str_key ("command") in completer hooks. Implement
1719 1726 trivial completer for 'import' (stdlib modules only). Rename
1720 1727 ipy_linux_package_managers.py to ipy_stock_completers.py.
1721 1728 SVN completer.
1722 1729
1723 1730 * Extensions/ledit.py: %magic line editor for easily and
1724 1731 incrementally manipulating lists of strings. The magic command
1725 1732 name is %led.
1726 1733
1727 1734 2006-10-30 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1728 1735
1729 1736 * Debugger.py, iplib.py (debugger()): Add last set of Rocky
1730 1737 Bernsteins's patches for pydb integration.
1731 1738 http://bashdb.sourceforge.net/pydb/
1732 1739
1733 1740 * strdispatch.py, iplib.py, completer.py, IPython/__init__.py,
1734 1741 Extensions/ipy_linux_package_managers.py, hooks.py: Implement
1735 1742 custom completer hook to allow the users to implement their own
1736 1743 completers. See ipy_linux_package_managers.py for example. The
1737 1744 hook name is 'complete_command'.
1738 1745
1739 1746 2006-10-28 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1740 1747
1741 1748 * IPython/UserConfig/ipythonrc-scipy: minor cleanups to remove old
1742 1749 Numeric leftovers.
1743 1750
1744 1751 * ipython.el (py-execute-region): apply Stefan's patch to fix
1745 1752 garbled results if the python shell hasn't been previously started.
1746 1753
1747 1754 * IPython/genutils.py (arg_split): moved to genutils, since it's a
1748 1755 pretty generic function and useful for other things.
1749 1756
1750 1757 * IPython/OInspect.py (getsource): Add customizable source
1751 1758 extractor. After a request/patch form W. Stein (SAGE).
1752 1759
1753 1760 * IPython/irunner.py (InteractiveRunner.run_source): reset tty
1754 1761 window size to a more reasonable value from what pexpect does,
1755 1762 since their choice causes wrapping bugs with long input lines.
1756 1763
1757 1764 2006-10-28 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1758 1765
1759 1766 * Magic.py (%run): Save and restore the readline history from
1760 1767 file around %run commands to prevent side effects from
1761 1768 %runned programs that might use readline (e.g. pydb).
1762 1769
1763 1770 * extensions/ipy_pydb.py: Adds %pydb magic when imported, for
1764 1771 invoking the pydb enhanced debugger.
1765 1772
1766 1773 2006-10-23 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1767 1774
1768 1775 * IPython/Extensions/ipipe.py (ifile): Remove all methods that
1769 1776 call the base class method and propagate the return value to
1770 1777 ifile. This is now done by path itself.
1771 1778
1772 1779 2006-10-15 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1773 1780
1774 1781 * IPython/ipapi.py (IPApi.__init__): Added new entry to public
1775 1782 api: set_crash_handler(), to expose the ability to change the
1776 1783 internal crash handler.
1777 1784
1778 1785 * IPython/CrashHandler.py (CrashHandler.__init__): abstract out
1779 1786 the various parameters of the crash handler so that apps using
1780 1787 IPython as their engine can customize crash handling. Ipmlemented
1781 1788 at the request of SAGE.
1782 1789
1783 1790 2006-10-14 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1784 1791
1785 1792 * Magic.py, ipython.el: applied first "safe" part of Rocky
1786 1793 Bernstein's patch set for pydb integration.
1787 1794
1788 1795 * Magic.py (%unalias, %alias): %store'd aliases can now be
1789 1796 removed with '%unalias'. %alias w/o args now shows most
1790 1797 interesting (stored / manually defined) aliases last
1791 1798 where they catch the eye w/o scrolling.
1792 1799
1793 1800 * Magic.py (%rehashx), ext_rehashdir.py: files with
1794 1801 'py' extension are always considered executable, even
1795 1802 when not in PATHEXT environment variable.
1796 1803
1797 1804 2006-10-12 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1798 1805
1799 1806 * jobctrl.py: Add new "jobctrl" extension for spawning background
1800 1807 processes with "&find /". 'import jobctrl' to try it out. Requires
1801 1808 'subprocess' module, standard in python 2.4+.
1802 1809
1803 1810 * iplib.py (expand_aliases, handle_alias): Aliases expand transitively,
1804 1811 so if foo -> bar and bar -> baz, then foo -> baz.
1805 1812
1806 1813 2006-10-09 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1807 1814
1808 1815 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.parse_options): add a new posix option
1809 1816 to allow parsing of input args in magics that doesn't strip quotes
1810 1817 (if posix=False). This also closes %timeit bug reported by
1811 1818 Stefan.
1812 1819
1813 1820 2006-10-03 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1814 1821
1815 1822 * iplib.py (raw_input, interact): Return ValueError catching for
1816 1823 raw_input. Fixes infinite loop for sys.stdin.close() or
1817 1824 sys.stdout.close().
1818 1825
1819 1826 2006-09-27 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1820 1827
1821 1828 * IPython/irunner.py (InteractiveRunner.run_source): small fixes
1822 1829 to help in handling doctests. irunner is now pretty useful for
1823 1830 running standalone scripts and simulate a full interactive session
1824 1831 in a format that can be then pasted as a doctest.
1825 1832
1826 1833 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.__init__): Install exit/quit
1827 1834 on top of the default (useless) ones. This also fixes the nasty
1828 1835 way in which 2.5's Quitter() exits (reverted [1785]).
1829 1836
1830 1837 * IPython/Debugger.py (Pdb.__init__): Fix ipdb to work with python
1831 1838 2.5.
1832 1839
1833 1840 * IPython/ultraTB.py (TBTools.set_colors): Make sure that ipdb
1834 1841 color scheme is updated as well when color scheme is changed
1835 1842 interactively.
1836 1843
1837 1844 2006-09-27 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1838 1845
1839 1846 * iplib.py (raw_input): python 2.5 closes stdin on quit -> avoid
1840 1847 infinite loop and just exit. It's a hack, but will do for a while.
1841 1848
1842 1849 2006-08-25 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1843 1850
1844 1851 * IPython/Extensions/ipipe.py (ils): Add arguments dirs and files to
1845 1852 the constructor, this makes it possible to get a list of only directories
1846 1853 or only files.
1847 1854
1848 1855 2006-08-12 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1849 1856
1850 1857 * Fakemodule.py, OInspect.py: Reverted 2006-08-11 mods,
1851 1858 they broke unittest
1852 1859
1853 1860 2006-08-11 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1854 1861
1855 1862 * Fakemodule.py, OInspect.py: remove 2006-08-09 monkepatch
1856 1863 by resolving issue properly, i.e. by inheriting FakeModule
1857 1864 from types.ModuleType. Pickling ipython interactive data
1858 1865 should still work as usual (testing appreciated).
1859 1866
1860 1867 2006-08-09 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1861 1868
1862 1869 * IPython/OInspect.py: monkeypatch inspect from the stdlib if
1863 1870 running under python 2.3 with code from 2.4 to fix a bug with
1864 1871 help(). Reported by the Debian maintainers, Norbert Tretkowski
1865 1872 <norbert-AT-tretkowski.de> and Alexandre Fayolle
1866 1873 <afayolle-AT-debian.org>.
1867 1874
1868 1875 2006-08-04 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1869 1876
1870 1877 * IPython/Extensions/ibrowse.py: Fixed the help message in the footer
1871 1878 (which was displaying "quit" twice).
1872 1879
1873 1880 2006-07-28 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1874 1881
1875 1882 * IPython/Extensions/ipipe.py: Fix isort.__iter__() (was still using
1876 1883 the mode argument).
1877 1884
1878 1885 2006-07-27 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1879 1886
1880 1887 * IPython/Extensions/ipipe.py: Fix getglobals() if we're
1881 1888 not running under IPython.
1882 1889
1883 1890 * IPython/Extensions/ipipe.py: Rename XAttr to AttributeDetail
1884 1891 and make it iterable (iterating over the attribute itself). Add two new
1885 1892 magic strings for __xattrs__(): If the string starts with "-", the attribute
1886 1893 will not be displayed in ibrowse's detail view (but it can still be
1887 1894 iterated over). This makes it possible to add attributes that are large
1888 1895 lists or generator methods to the detail view. Replace magic attribute names
1889 1896 and _attrname() and _getattr() with "descriptors": For each type of magic
1890 1897 attribute name there's a subclass of Descriptor: None -> SelfDescriptor();
1891 1898 "foo" -> AttributeDescriptor("foo"); "foo()" -> MethodDescriptor("foo");
1892 1899 "-foo" -> IterAttributeDescriptor("foo"); "-foo()" -> IterMethodDescriptor("foo");
1893 1900 foo() -> FunctionDescriptor(foo). Magic strings returned from __xattrs__()
1894 1901 are still supported.
1895 1902
1896 1903 * IPython/Extensions/ibrowse.py: If fetching the next row from the input
1897 1904 fails in ibrowse.fetch(), the exception object is added as the last item
1898 1905 and item fetching is canceled. This prevents ibrowse from aborting if e.g.
1899 1906 a generator throws an exception midway through execution.
1900 1907
1901 1908 * IPython/Extensions/ipipe.py: Turn ifile's properties mimetype and
1902 1909 encoding into methods.
1903 1910
1904 1911 2006-07-26 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1905 1912
1906 1913 * iplib.py: history now stores multiline input as single
1907 1914 history entries. Patch by Jorgen Cederlof.
1908 1915
1909 1916 2006-07-18 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1910 1917
1911 1918 * IPython/Extensions/ibrowse.py: Make cursor visible over
1912 1919 non existing attributes.
1913 1920
1914 1921 2006-07-14 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1915 1922
1916 1923 * IPython/Extensions/ipipe.py (ix): Use os.popen4() so that the
1917 1924 error output of the running command doesn't mess up the screen.
1918 1925
1919 1926 2006-07-13 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1920 1927
1921 1928 * IPython/Extensions/ipipe.py (isort): Make isort usable without
1922 1929 argument. This sorts the items themselves.
1923 1930
1924 1931 2006-07-12 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1925 1932
1926 1933 * IPython/Extensions/ipipe.py (eval, ifilter, isort, ieval):
1927 1934 Compile expression strings into code objects. This should speed
1928 1935 up ifilter and friends somewhat.
1929 1936
1930 1937 2006-07-08 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1931 1938
1932 1939 * Magic.py: %cpaste now strips > from the beginning of lines
1933 1940 to ease pasting quoted code from emails. Contributed by
1934 1941 Stefan van der Walt.
1935 1942
1936 1943 2006-06-29 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1937 1944
1938 1945 * ipmaker.py, Shell.py: qt4agg matplotlib backend support for pylab
1939 1946 mode, patch contributed by Darren Dale. NEEDS TESTING!
1940 1947
1941 1948 2006-06-28 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1942 1949
1943 1950 * IPython/Extensions/ibrowse.py: Give the ibrowse cursor row
1944 1951 a blue background. Fix fetching new display rows when the browser
1945 1952 scrolls more than a screenful (e.g. by using the goto command).
1946 1953
1947 1954 2006-06-27 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1948 1955
1949 1956 * Magic.py (_inspect, _ofind) Apply David Huard's
1950 1957 patch for displaying the correct docstring for 'property'
1951 1958 attributes.
1952 1959
1953 1960 2006-06-23 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1954 1961
1955 1962 * IPython/Extensions/ibrowse.py: Put the documentation of the keyboard
1956 1963 commands into the methods implementing them.
1957 1964
1958 1965 2006-06-22 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
1959 1966
1960 1967 * ipython.el (ipython-indentation-hook): cleanup patch, submitted
1961 1968 by Kov Chai <tchaikov-AT-gmail.com>. He notes that the original
1962 1969 autoindent support was authored by Jin Liu.
1963 1970
1964 1971 2006-06-22 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1965 1972
1966 1973 * IPython/Extensions/ibrowse.py: Replace the plain dictionaries used
1967 1974 for keymaps with a custom class that simplifies handling.
1968 1975
1969 1976 2006-06-19 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1970 1977
1971 1978 * IPython/Extensions/ibrowse.py: ibrowse now properly handles terminal
1972 1979 resizing. This requires Python 2.5 to work.
1973 1980
1974 1981 2006-06-16 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
1975 1982
1976 1983 * IPython/Extensions/ibrowse.py: Add two new commands to
1977 1984 ibrowse: "hideattr" (mapped to "h") hides the attribute under
1978 1985 the cursor. "unhiderattrs" (mapped to "H") reveals all hidden
1979 1986 attributes again. Remapped the help command to "?". Display
1980 1987 keycodes in the range 0x01-0x1F as CTRL-xx. Add CTRL-a and CTRL-e
1981 1988 as keys for the "home" and "end" commands. Add three new commands
1982 1989 to the input mode for "find" and friends: "delend" (CTRL-K)
1983 1990 deletes to the end of line. "incsearchup" searches upwards in the
1984 1991 command history for an input that starts with the text before the cursor.
1985 1992 "incsearchdown" does the same downwards. Removed a bogus mapping of
1986 1993 the x key to "delete".
1987 1994
1988 1995 2006-06-15 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
1989 1996
1990 1997 * iplib.py, hooks.py: Added new generate_prompt hook that can be
1991 1998 used to create prompts dynamically, instead of the "old" way of
1992 1999 assigning "magic" strings to prompt_in1 and prompt_in2. The old
1993 2000 way still works (it's invoked by the default hook), of course.
1994 2001
1995 2002 * Prompts.py: added generate_output_prompt hook for altering output
1996 2003 prompt
1997 2004
1998 2005 * Release.py: Changed version string to 0.7.3.svn.
1999 2006
2000 2007 2006-06-15 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
2001 2008
2002 2009 * IPython/Extensions/ibrowse.py: Change _BrowserLevel.moveto() so that
2003 2010 the call to fetch() always tries to fetch enough data for at least one
2004 2011 full screen. This makes it possible to simply call moveto(0,0,True) in
2005 2012 the constructor. Fix typos and removed the obsolete goto attribute.
2006 2013
2007 2014 2006-06-12 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2008 2015
2009 2016 * ipy_profile_sh.py: applied Krisha Mohan Gundu's patch for
2010 2017 allowing $variable interpolation within multiline statements,
2011 2018 though so far only with "sh" profile for a testing period.
2012 2019 The patch also enables splitting long commands with \ but it
2013 2020 doesn't work properly yet.
2014 2021
2015 2022 2006-06-12 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
2016 2023
2017 2024 * IPython/Extensions/ibrowse.py (_dodisplay): Display the length of the
2018 2025 input history and the position of the cursor in the input history for
2019 2026 the find, findbackwards and goto command.
2020 2027
2021 2028 2006-06-10 Walter Doerwald <walter@livinglogic.de>
2022 2029
2023 2030 * IPython/Extensions/ibrowse.py: Add a class _CommandInput that
2024 2031 implements the basic functionality of browser commands that require
2025 2032 input. Reimplement the goto, find and findbackwards commands as
2026 2033 subclasses of _CommandInput. Add an input history and keymaps to those
2027 2034 commands. Add "\r" as a keyboard shortcut for the enterdefault and
2028 2035 execute commands.
2029 2036
2030 2037 2006-06-07 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2031 2038
2032 2039 * iplib.py: ipython mybatch.ipy exits ipython immediately after
2033 2040 running the batch files instead of leaving the session open.
2034 2041
2035 2042 2006-06-07 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2036 2043
2037 2044 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.__init__): update BSD fix, as
2038 2045 the original fix was incomplete. Patch submitted by W. Maier.
2039 2046
2040 2047 2006-06-07 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2041 2048
2042 2049 * iplib.py,Magic.py, ipmaker.py (magic_rehashx):
2043 2050 Confirmation prompts can be supressed by 'quiet' option.
2044 2051 _ip.options.quiet = 1 means "assume yes for all yes/no queries".
2045 2052
2046 2053 2006-06-06 *** Released version 0.7.2
2047 2054
2048 2055 2006-06-06 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2049 2056
2050 2057 * IPython/Release.py (version): Made 0.7.2 final for release.
2051 2058 Repo tagged and release cut.
2052 2059
2053 2060 2006-06-05 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2054 2061
2055 2062 * Magic.py (magic_rehashx): Honor no_alias list earlier in
2056 2063 %rehashx, to avoid clobbering builtins in ipy_profile_sh.py
2057 2064
2058 2065 * upgrade_dir.py: try import 'path' module a bit harder
2059 2066 (for %upgrade)
2060 2067
2061 2068 2006-06-03 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2062 2069
2063 2070 * IPython/genutils.py (ask_yes_no): treat EOF as a default answer
2064 2071 instead of looping 20 times.
2065 2072
2066 2073 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): honor -ipythondir flag
2067 2074 correctly at initialization time. Bug reported by Krishna Mohan
2068 2075 Gundu <gkmohan-AT-gmail.com> on the user list.
2069 2076
2070 2077 * IPython/Release.py (version): Mark 0.7.2 version to start
2071 2078 testing for release on 06/06.
2072 2079
2073 2080 2006-05-31 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2074 2081
2075 2082 * scripts/irunner: thin script interface so users don't have to
2076 2083 find the module and call it as an executable, since modules rarely
2077 2084 live in people's PATH.
2078 2085
2079 2086 * IPython/irunner.py (InteractiveRunner.__init__): added
2080 2087 delaybeforesend attribute to control delays with newer versions of
2081 2088 pexpect. Thanks to detailed help from pexpect's author, Noah
2082 2089 Spurrier <noah-AT-noah.org>. Noted how to use the SAGE runner
2083 2090 correctly (it works in NoColor mode).
2084 2091
2085 2092 * IPython/iplib.py (handle_normal): fix nasty crash reported on
2086 2093 SAGE list, from improper log() calls.
2087 2094
2088 2095 2006-05-31 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2089 2096
2090 2097 * upgrade_dir.py, Magic.py (magic_upgrade): call upgrade_dir
2091 2098 with args in parens to work correctly with dirs that have spaces.
2092 2099
2093 2100 2006-05-30 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2094 2101
2095 2102 * IPython/Logger.py (Logger.logstart): add option to log raw input
2096 2103 instead of the processed one. A -r flag was added to the
2097 2104 %logstart magic used for controlling logging.
2098 2105
2099 2106 2006-05-29 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2100 2107
2101 2108 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.__init__): add check for the
2102 2109 *BSDs to omit --color from all 'ls' aliases, since *BSD ls doesn't
2103 2110 recognize the option. After a bug report by Will Maier. This
2104 2111 closes #64 (will do it after confirmation from W. Maier).
2105 2112
2106 2113 * IPython/irunner.py: New module to run scripts as if manually
2107 2114 typed into an interactive environment, based on pexpect. After a
2108 2115 submission by Ken Schutte <kschutte-AT-csail.mit.edu> on the
2109 2116 ipython-user list. Simple unittests in the tests/ directory.
2110 2117
2111 2118 * tools/release: add Will Maier, OpenBSD port maintainer, to
2112 2119 recepients list. We are now officially part of the OpenBSD ports:
2113 2120 http://www.openbsd.org/ports.html ! Many thanks to Will for the
2114 2121 work.
2115 2122
2116 2123 2006-05-26 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2117 2124
2118 2125 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): modify sys.argv fix (below)
2119 2126 so that it doesn't break tkinter apps.
2120 2127
2121 2128 * IPython/iplib.py (_prefilter): fix bug where aliases would
2122 2129 shadow variables when autocall was fully off. Reported by SAGE
2123 2130 author William Stein.
2124 2131
2125 2132 * IPython/OInspect.py (Inspector.__init__): add a flag to control
2126 2133 at what detail level strings are computed when foo? is requested.
2127 2134 This allows users to ask for example that the string form of an
2128 2135 object is only computed when foo?? is called, or even never, by
2129 2136 setting the object_info_string_level >= 2 in the configuration
2130 2137 file. This new option has been added and documented. After a
2131 2138 request by SAGE to be able to control the printing of very large
2132 2139 objects more easily.
2133 2140
2134 2141 2006-05-25 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2135 2142
2136 2143 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): remove the ipython call path
2137 2144 from sys.argv, to be 100% consistent with how Python itself works
2138 2145 (as seen for example with python -i file.py). After a bug report
2139 2146 by Jeffrey Collins.
2140 2147
2141 2148 * IPython/Shell.py (MatplotlibShellBase._matplotlib_config): Fix
2142 2149 nasty bug which was preventing custom namespaces with -pylab,
2143 2150 reported by M. Foord. Minor cleanup, remove old matplotlib.matlab
2144 2151 compatibility (long gone from mpl).
2145 2152
2146 2153 * IPython/ipapi.py (make_session): name change: create->make. We
2147 2154 use make in other places (ipmaker,...), it's shorter and easier to
2148 2155 type and say, etc. I'm trying to clean things before 0.7.2 so
2149 2156 that I can keep things stable wrt to ipapi in the chainsaw branch.
2150 2157
2151 2158 * ipython.el: fix the py-pdbtrack-input-prompt variable so that
2152 2159 python-mode recognizes our debugger mode. Add support for
2153 2160 autoindent inside (X)emacs. After a patch sent in by Jin Liu
2154 2161 <m.liu.jin-AT-gmail.com> originally written by
2155 2162 doxgen-AT-newsmth.net (with minor modifications for xemacs
2156 2163 compatibility)
2157 2164
2158 2165 * IPython/Debugger.py (Pdb.format_stack_entry): fix formatting of
2159 2166 tracebacks when walking the stack so that the stack tracking system
2160 2167 in emacs' python-mode can identify the frames correctly.
2161 2168
2162 2169 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): make the internal (and
2163 2170 default config) autoedit_syntax value false by default. Too many
2164 2171 users have complained to me (both on and off-list) about problems
2165 2172 with this option being on by default, so I'm making it default to
2166 2173 off. It can still be enabled by anyone via the usual mechanisms.
2167 2174
2168 2175 * IPython/completer.py (Completer.attr_matches): add support for
2169 2176 PyCrust-style _getAttributeNames magic method. Patch contributed
2170 2177 by <mscott-AT-goldenspud.com>. Closes #50.
2171 2178
2172 2179 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.__init__): remove the
2173 2180 deletion of exit/quit from __builtin__, which can break
2174 2181 third-party tools like the Zope debugging console. The
2175 2182 %exit/%quit magics remain. In general, it's probably a good idea
2176 2183 not to delete anything from __builtin__, since we never know what
2177 2184 that will break. In any case, python now (for 2.5) will support
2178 2185 'real' exit/quit, so this issue is moot. Closes #55.
2179 2186
2180 2187 * IPython/genutils.py (with_obj): rename the 'with' function to
2181 2188 'withobj' to avoid incompatibilities with Python 2.5, where 'with'
2182 2189 becomes a language keyword. Closes #53.
2183 2190
2184 2191 * IPython/FakeModule.py (FakeModule.__init__): add a proper
2185 2192 __file__ attribute to this so it fools more things into thinking
2186 2193 it is a real module. Closes #59.
2187 2194
2188 2195 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_edit): add -n option to open the editor
2189 2196 at a specific line number. After a patch by Stefan van der Walt.
2190 2197
2191 2198 2006-05-23 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2192 2199
2193 2200 * IPython/iplib.py (edit_syntax_error): fix crash when for some
2194 2201 reason the file could not be opened. After automatic crash
2195 2202 reports sent by James Graham <jgraham-AT-ast.cam.ac.uk> and
2196 2203 Charles Dolan <charlespatrickdolan-AT-yahoo.com>.
2197 2204 (_should_recompile): Don't fire editor if using %bg, since there
2198 2205 is no file in the first place. From the same report as above.
2199 2206 (raw_input): protect against faulty third-party prefilters. After
2200 2207 an automatic crash report sent by Dirk Laurie <dirk-AT-sun.ac.za>
2201 2208 while running under SAGE.
2202 2209
2203 2210 2006-05-23 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2204 2211
2205 2212 * ipapi.py: Stripped down ip.to_user_ns() to work only as
2206 2213 ip.to_user_ns("x1 y1"), which exposes vars x1 and y1. ipapi.get()
2207 2214 now returns None (again), unless dummy is specifically allowed by
2208 2215 ipapi.get(allow_dummy=True).
2209 2216
2210 2217 2006-05-18 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2211 2218
2212 2219 * IPython: remove all 2.2-compatibility objects and hacks from
2213 2220 everywhere, since we only support 2.3 at this point. Docs
2214 2221 updated.
2215 2222
2216 2223 * IPython/ipapi.py (IPApi.__init__): Cleanup of all getters.
2217 2224 Anything requiring extra validation can be turned into a Python
2218 2225 property in the future. I used a property for the db one b/c
2219 2226 there was a nasty circularity problem with the initialization
2220 2227 order, which right now I don't have time to clean up.
2221 2228
2222 2229 * IPython/Shell.py (MTInteractiveShell.runcode): Fix, I think,
2223 2230 another locking bug reported by Jorgen. I'm not 100% sure though,
2224 2231 so more testing is needed...
2225 2232
2226 2233 2006-05-17 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2227 2234
2228 2235 * IPython/ipapi.py (IPApi.to_user_ns): New function to inject
2229 2236 local variables from any routine in user code (typically executed
2230 2237 with %run) directly into the interactive namespace. Very useful
2231 2238 when doing complex debugging.
2232 2239 (IPythonNotRunning): Changed the default None object to a dummy
2233 2240 whose attributes can be queried as well as called without
2234 2241 exploding, to ease writing code which works transparently both in
2235 2242 and out of ipython and uses some of this API.
2236 2243
2237 2244 2006-05-16 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2238 2245
2239 2246 * IPython/hooks.py (result_display): Fix the fact that our display
2240 2247 hook was using str() instead of repr(), as the default python
2241 2248 console does. This had gone unnoticed b/c it only happened if
2242 2249 %Pprint was off, but the inconsistency was there.
2243 2250
2244 2251 2006-05-15 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2245 2252
2246 2253 * Oinspect.py: Only show docstring for nonexisting/binary files
2247 2254 when doing object??, closing ticket #62
2248 2255
2249 2256 2006-05-13 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2250 2257
2251 2258 * IPython/Shell.py (MTInteractiveShell.runsource): Fix threading
2252 2259 bug, closes http://www.scipy.net/roundup/ipython/issue55. A lock
2253 2260 was being released in a routine which hadn't checked if it had
2254 2261 been the one to acquire it.
2255 2262
2256 2263 2006-05-07 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2257 2264
2258 2265 * IPython/Release.py (version): put out 0.7.2.rc1 for testing.
2259 2266
2260 2267 2006-04-11 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2261 2268
2262 2269 * iplib.py, ipmaker.py: .ipy extension now means "ipython batch file"
2263 2270 in command line. E.g. "ipython test.ipy" runs test.ipy with ipython
2264 2271 prefilters, allowing stuff like magics and aliases in the file.
2265 2272
2266 2273 * Prompts.py, Extensions/clearcmd.py, ipy_system_conf.py: %clear magic
2267 2274 added. Supported now are "%clear in" and "%clear out" (clear input and
2268 2275 output history, respectively). Also fixed CachedOutput.flush to
2269 2276 properly flush the output cache.
2270 2277
2271 2278 * Extensions/pspersistence.py: Fix %store to avoid "%store obj.attr"
2272 2279 half-success (and fail explicitly).
2273 2280
2274 2281 2006-03-28 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2275 2282
2276 2283 * iplib.py: Fix quoting of aliases so that only argless ones
2277 2284 are quoted
2278 2285
2279 2286 2006-03-28 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2280 2287
2281 2288 * iplib.py: Quote aliases with spaces in the name.
2282 2289 "c:\program files\blah\bin" is now legal alias target.
2283 2290
2284 2291 * ext_rehashdir.py: Space no longer allowed as arg
2285 2292 separator, since space is legal in path names.
2286 2293
2287 2294 2006-03-16 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2288 2295
2289 2296 * upgrade_dir.py: Take path.py from Extensions, correcting
2290 2297 %upgrade magic
2291 2298
2292 2299 * ipmaker.py: Suggest using %upgrade if ipy_user_conf.py isn't found.
2293 2300
2294 2301 * hooks.py: Only enclose editor binary in quotes if legal and
2295 2302 necessary (space in the name, and is an existing file). Fixes a bug
2296 2303 reported by Zachary Pincus.

2298 2305 2006-03-13 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2299 2306
2300 2307 * Manual: thanks to a tip on proper color handling for Emacs, by
2301 2308 Eric J Haywiser <ejh1-AT-MIT.EDU>.
2302 2309
2303 2310 * ipython.el: close http://www.scipy.net/roundup/ipython/issue57
2304 2311 by applying the provided patch. Thanks to Liu Jin
2305 2312 <m.liu.jin-AT-gmail.com> for the contribution. No problems under
2306 2313 XEmacs/Linux, I'm trusting the submitter that it actually helps
2307 2314 under win32/GNU Emacs. Will revisit if any problems are reported.
2308 2315
2309 2316 2006-03-12 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2310 2317
2311 2318 * IPython/Gnuplot2.py (_FileClass): update for current Gnuplot.py
2312 2319 from SVN, thanks to a patch by Ryan Woodard <rywo@bas.ac.uk>.
2313 2320
2314 2321 2006-03-12 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2315 2322
2316 2323 * Magic.py (magic_timeit): Added %timeit magic, contributed by
2317 2324 Torsten Marek.
2318 2325
2319 2326 2006-03-12 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2320 2327
2321 2328 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_macro): fix so that the n1-n2 syntax for
2322 2329 line ranges works again.
2323 2330
2324 2331 2006-03-11 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2325 2332
2326 2333 * IPython/iplib.py (showtraceback): add back sys.last_traceback
2327 2334 and friends, after a discussion with Zach Pincus on ipython-user.
2328 2335 I'm not 100% sure, but after thinking about it quite a bit, it may
2329 2336 be OK. Testing with the multithreaded shells didn't reveal any
2330 2337 problems, but let's keep an eye out.
2331 2338
2332 2339 In the process, I fixed a few things which were calling
2333 2340 self.InteractiveTB() directly (like safe_execfile), which is a
2334 2341 mistake: ALL exception reporting should be done by calling
2335 2342 self.showtraceback(), which handles state and tab-completion and
2336 2343 more.
2337 2344
2338 2345 2006-03-01 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2339 2346
2340 2347 * Extensions/ipipe.py: Added Walter Doerwald's "ipipe" module.
2341 2348 To use, do "from ipipe import *".
2342 2349
2343 2350 2006-02-24 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2344 2351
2345 2352 * Magic.py, upgrade_dir.py: %upgrade magic added. Does things more
2346 2353 "cleanly" and safely than the older upgrade mechanism.
2347 2354
2348 2355 2006-02-21 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2349 2356
2350 2357 * Magic.py: %save works again.
2351 2358
2352 2359 2006-02-15 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2353 2360
2354 2361 * Magic.py: %Pprint works again
2355 2362
2356 2363 * Extensions/ipy_sane_defaults.py: Provide everything provided
2357 2364 in default ipythonrc, to make it possible to have a completely empty
2358 2365 ipythonrc (and thus completely rc-file free configuration)
2359 2366
2360 2367 2006-02-11 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2361 2368
2362 2369 * IPython/hooks.py (editor): quote the call to the editor command,
2363 2370 to allow commands with spaces in them. Problem noted by watching
2364 2371 Ian Oswald's video about textpad under win32 at
2365 2372 http://showmedo.com/videoListPage?listKey=PythonIPythonSeries
2366 2373
2367 2374 * IPython/UserConfig/ipythonrc: Replace @ signs with % when
2368 2375 describing magics (we haven't used @ for a loong time).
2369 2376
2370 2377 * IPython/ultraTB.py (VerboseTB.text.text_repr): Added patch
2371 2378 contributed by marienz to close
2372 2379 http://www.scipy.net/roundup/ipython/issue53.
2373 2380
2374 2381 2006-02-10 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2375 2382
2376 2383 * genutils.py: getoutput now works in win32 too
2377 2384
2378 2385 * completer.py: alias and magic completion only invoked
2379 2386 at the first "item" in the line, to avoid "cd %store"
2380 2387 nonsense.
2381 2388
2382 2389 2006-02-09 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2383 2390
2384 2391 * test/*: Added a unit testing framework (finally).
2385 2392 '%run runtests.py' to run test_*.
2386 2393
2387 2394 * ipapi.py: Exposed runlines and set_custom_exc
2388 2395
2389 2396 2006-02-07 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2390 2397
2391 2398 * iplib.py: don't split "f 1 2" to "f(1,2)" in autocall,
2392 2399 instead use "f(1 2)" as before.
2393 2400
2394 2401 2006-02-05 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2395 2402
2396 2403 * IPython/demo.py (IPythonDemo): Add new classes to the demo
2397 2404 facilities, for demos processed by the IPython input filter
2398 2405 (IPythonDemo), and for running a script one-line-at-a-time as a
2399 2406 demo, both for pure Python (LineDemo) and for IPython-processed
2400 2407 input (IPythonLineDemo). After a request by Dave Kohel, from the
2401 2408 SAGE team.
2402 2409 (Demo.edit): added an edit() method to the demo objects, to edit
2403 2410 the in-memory copy of the last executed block.
2404 2411
2405 2412 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_edit): add '-r' option for 'raw'
2406 2413 processing to %edit, %macro and %save. These commands can now be
2407 2414 invoked on the unprocessed input as it was typed by the user
2408 2415 (without any prefilters applied). After requests by the SAGE team
2409 2416 at SAGE days 2006: http://modular.ucsd.edu/sage/days1/schedule.html.
2410 2417
2411 2418 2006-02-01 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2412 2419
2413 2420 * setup.py, eggsetup.py: easy_install ipython==dev works
2414 2421 correctly now (on Linux)
2415 2422
2416 2423 * ipy_user_conf,ipmaker: user config changes, removed spurious
2417 2424 warnings
2418 2425
2419 2426 * iplib: if rc.banner is string, use it as is.
2420 2427
2421 2428 * Magic: %pycat accepts a string argument and pages it's contents.
2422 2429
2423 2430
2424 2431 2006-01-30 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2425 2432
2426 2433 * pickleshare,pspersistence,ipapi,Magic: persistence overhaul.
2427 2434 Now %store and bookmarks work through PickleShare, meaning that
2428 2435 concurrent access is possible and all ipython sessions see the
2429 2436 same database situation all the time, instead of snapshot of
2430 2437 the situation when the session was started. Hence, %bookmark
2431 2438 results are immediately accessible from othes sessions. The database
2432 2439 is also available for use by user extensions. See:
2433 2440 http://www.python.org/pypi/pickleshare
2434 2441
2435 2442 * hooks.py: Two new hooks, 'shutdown_hook' and 'late_startup_hook'.
2436 2443
2437 2444 * aliases can now be %store'd
2438 2445
2439 2446 * path.py moved to Extensions so that pickleshare does not need
2440 2447 IPython-specific import. Extensions added to pythonpath right
2441 2448 at __init__.
2442 2449
2443 2450 * iplib.py: ipalias deprecated/redundant; aliases are converted and
2444 2451 called with _ip.system and the pre-transformed command string.
2445 2452
2446 2453 2006-01-29 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2447 2454
2448 2455 * IPython/iplib.py (interact): Fix that we were not catching
2449 2456 KeyboardInterrupt exceptions properly. I'm not quite sure why the
2450 2457 logic here had to change, but it's fixed now.
2451 2458
2452 2459 2006-01-29 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2453 2460
2454 2461 * iplib.py: Try to import pyreadline on Windows.
2455 2462
2456 2463 2006-01-27 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2457 2464
2458 2465 * iplib.py: Expose ipapi as _ip in builtin namespace.
2459 2466 Makes ipmagic (-> _ip.magic), ipsystem (-> _ip.system)
2460 2467 and ip_set_hook (-> _ip.set_hook) redundant. % and !
2461 2468 syntax now produce _ip.* variant of the commands.
2462 2469
2463 2470 * "_ip.options().autoedit_syntax = 2" automatically throws
2464 2471 user to editor for syntax error correction without prompting.
2465 2472
2466 2473 2006-01-27 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2467 2474
2468 2475 * ipmaker.py: Give "realistic" sys.argv for scripts (without
2469 2476 'ipython' at argv[0]) executed through command line.
2470 2477 NOTE: this DEPRECATES calling ipython with multiple scripts
2471 2478 ("ipython a.py b.py c.py")
2472 2479
2473 2480 * iplib.py, hooks.py: Added configurable input prefilter,
2474 2481 named 'input_prefilter'. See ext_rescapture.py for example
2475 2482 usage.
2476 2483
2477 2484 * ext_rescapture.py, Magic.py: Better system command output capture
2478 2485 through 'var = !ls' (deprecates user-visible %sc). Same notation
2479 2486 applies for magics, 'var = %alias' assigns alias list to var.
2480 2487
2481 2488 * ipapi.py: added meta() for accessing extension-usable data store.
2482 2489
2483 2490 * iplib.py: added InteractiveShell.getapi(). New magics should be
2484 2491 written doing self.getapi() instead of using the shell directly.
2485 2492
2486 2493 * Magic.py: %store now allows doing %store foo > ~/myfoo.txt and
2487 2494 %store foo >> ~/myfoo.txt to store variables to files (in clean
2488 2495 textual form, not a restorable pickle).
2489 2496
2490 2497 * ipmaker.py: now import ipy_profile_PROFILENAME automatically
2491 2498
2492 2499 * usage.py, Magic.py: added %quickref
2493 2500
2494 2501 * iplib.py: ESC_PAREN fixes: /f 1 2 -> f(1,2), not f(1 2).
2495 2502
2496 2503 * GetoptErrors when invoking magics etc. with wrong args
2497 2504 are now more helpful:
2498 2505 GetoptError: option -l not recognized (allowed: "qb" )
2499 2506
2500 2507 2006-01-25 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2501 2508
2502 2509 * IPython/demo.py (Demo.show): Flush stdout after each block, so
2503 2510 computationally intensive blocks don't appear to stall the demo.
2504 2511
2505 2512 2006-01-24 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2506 2513
2507 2514 * iplib.py, hooks.py: 'result_display' hook can return a non-None
2508 2515 value to manipulate resulting history entry.
2509 2516
2510 2517 * ipapi.py: Moved TryNext here from hooks.py. Moved functions
2511 2518 to instance methods of IPApi class, to make extending an embedded
2512 2519 IPython feasible. See ext_rehashdir.py for example usage.
2513 2520
2514 2521 * Merged 1071-1076 from branches/0.7.1
2515 2522
2516 2523
2517 2524 2006-01-23 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2518 2525
2519 2526 * tools/release (daystamp): Fix build tools to use the new
2520 2527 eggsetup.py script to build lightweight eggs.
2521 2528
2522 2529 * Applied changesets 1062 and 1064 before 0.7.1 release.
2523 2530
2524 2531 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_history): Add '-r' option to %hist, to
2525 2532 see the raw input history (without conversions like %ls ->
2526 2533 ipmagic("ls")). After a request from W. Stein, SAGE
2527 2534 (http://modular.ucsd.edu/sage) developer. This information is
2528 2535 stored in the input_hist_raw attribute of the IPython instance, so
2529 2536 developers can access it if needed (it's an InputList instance).
2530 2537
2531 2538 * Versionstring = 0.7.2.svn
2532 2539
2533 2540 * eggsetup.py: A separate script for constructing eggs, creates
2534 2541 proper launch scripts even on Windows (an .exe file in
2535 2542 \python24\scripts).
2536 2543
2537 2544 * ipapi.py: launch_new_instance, launch entry point needed for the
2538 2545 egg.
2539 2546
2540 2547 2006-01-23 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2541 2548
2542 2549 * Added %cpaste magic for pasting python code
2543 2550
2544 2551 2006-01-22 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2545 2552
2546 2553 * Merge from branches/0.7.1 into trunk, revs 1052-1057
2547 2554
2548 2555 * Versionstring = 0.7.2.svn
2549 2556
2550 2557 * eggsetup.py: A separate script for constructing eggs, creates
2551 2558 proper launch scripts even on Windows (an .exe file in
2552 2559 \python24\scripts).
2553 2560
2554 2561 * ipapi.py: launch_new_instance, launch entry point needed for the
2555 2562 egg.
2556 2563
2557 2564 2006-01-22 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2558 2565
2559 2566 * IPython/OInspect.py (Inspector.pinfo): fix bug where foo?? or
2560 2567 %pfile foo would print the file for foo even if it was a binary.
2561 2568 Now, extensions '.so' and '.dll' are skipped.
2562 2569
2563 2570 * IPython/Shell.py (MTInteractiveShell.__init__): Fix threading
2564 2571 bug, where macros would fail in all threaded modes. I'm not 100%
2565 2572 sure, so I'm going to put out an rc instead of making a release
2566 2573 today, and wait for feedback for at least a few days.
2567 2574
2568 2575 * IPython/iplib.py (handle_normal): fix (finally? somehow I doubt
2569 2576 it...) the handling of pasting external code with autoindent on.
2570 2577 To get out of a multiline input, the rule will appear for most
2571 2578 users unchanged: two blank lines or change the indent level
2572 2579 proposed by IPython. But there is a twist now: you can
2573 2580 add/subtract only *one or two spaces*. If you add/subtract three
2574 2581 or more (unless you completely delete the line), IPython will
2575 2582 accept that line, and you'll need to enter a second one of pure
2576 2583 whitespace. I know it sounds complicated, but I can't find a
2577 2584 different solution that covers all the cases, with the right
2578 2585 heuristics. Hopefully in actual use, nobody will really notice
2579 2586 all these strange rules and things will 'just work'.
2580 2587
2581 2588 2006-01-21 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2582 2589
2583 2590 * IPython/iplib.py (interact): catch exceptions which can be
2584 2591 triggered asynchronously by signal handlers. Thanks to an
2585 2592 automatic crash report, submitted by Colin Kingsley
2586 2593 <tercel-AT-gentoo.org>.
2587 2594
2588 2595 2006-01-20 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2589 2596
2590 2597 * Ipython/Extensions/ext_rehashdir.py: Created a usable example
2591 2598 (%rehashdir, very useful, try it out) of how to extend ipython
2592 2599 with new magics. Also added Extensions dir to pythonpath to make
2593 2600 importing extensions easy.
2594 2601
2595 2602 * %store now complains when trying to store interactively declared
2596 2603 classes / instances of those classes.
2597 2604
2598 2605 * Extensions/ipy_system_conf.py, UserConfig/ipy_user_conf.py,
2599 2606 ipmaker.py: Config rehaul. Now ipy_..._conf.py are always imported
2600 2607 if they exist, and ipy_user_conf.py with some defaults is created for
2601 2608 the user.
2602 2609
2603 2610 * Startup rehashing done by the config file, not InterpreterExec.
2604 2611 This means system commands are available even without selecting the
2605 2612 pysh profile. It's the sensible default after all.
2606 2613
2607 2614 2006-01-20 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2608 2615
2609 2616 * IPython/iplib.py (raw_input): I _think_ I got the pasting of
2610 2617 multiline code with autoindent on working. But I am really not
2611 2618 sure, so this needs more testing. Will commit a debug-enabled
2612 2619 version for now, while I test it some more, so that Ville and
2613 2620 others may also catch any problems. Also made
2614 2621 self.indent_current_str() a method, to ensure that there's no
2615 2622 chance of the indent space count and the corresponding string
2616 2623 falling out of sync. All code needing the string should just call
2617 2624 the method.
2618 2625
2619 2626 2006-01-18 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2620 2627
2621 2628 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_edit): fix check for when users don't
2622 2629 save their output files, the try/except was in the wrong section.
2623 2630
2624 2631 2006-01-17 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2625 2632
2626 2633 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_run): fix __file__ global missing from
2627 2634 script's namespace when executed via %run. After a report by
2628 2635 Vivian.
2629 2636
2630 2637 * IPython/Debugger.py (Pdb.__init__): Fix breakage with '%run -d'
2631 2638 when using python 2.4. The parent constructor changed in 2.4, and
2632 2639 we need to track it directly (we can't call it, as it messes up
2633 2640 readline and tab-completion inside our pdb would stop working).
2634 2641 After a bug report by R. Bernstein <rocky-AT-panix.com>.
2635 2642
2636 2643 2006-01-16 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2637 2644
2638 2645 * Ipython/magic.py: Reverted back to old %edit functionality
2639 2646 that returns file contents on exit.
2640 2647
2641 2648 * IPython/path.py: Added Jason Orendorff's "path" module to
2642 2649 IPython tree, http://www.jorendorff.com/articles/python/path/.
2643 2650 You can get path objects conveniently through %sc, and !!, e.g.:
2644 2651 sc files=ls
2645 2652 for p in files.paths: # or files.p
2646 2653 print p,p.mtime
2647 2654
2648 2655 * Ipython/iplib.py:"," and ";" autoquoting-upon-autocall
2649 2656 now work again without considering the exclusion regexp -
2650 2657 hence, things like ',foo my/path' turn to 'foo("my/path")'
2651 2658 instead of syntax error.

2654 2661 2006-01-14 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2655 2662
2656 2663 * IPython/ipapi.py (ashook, asmagic, options): Added convenience
2657 2664 ipapi decorators for python 2.4 users, options() provides access to rc
2658 2665 data.
2659 2666
2660 2667 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_cd): %cd now accepts backslashes
2661 2668 as path separators (even on Linux ;-). Space character after
2662 2669 backslash (as yielded by tab completer) is still space;
2663 2670 "%cd long\ name" works as expected.
2664 2671
2665 2672 * IPython/ipapi.py,hooks.py,iplib.py: Hooks now implemented
2666 2673 as "chain of command", with priority. API stays the same,
2667 2674 TryNext exception raised by a hook function signals that
2668 2675 current hook failed and next hook should try handling it, as
2669 2676 suggested by Walter DΓΆrwald <walter@livinglogic.de>. Walter also
2670 2677 requested configurable display hook, which is now implemented.
2671 2678
2672 2679 2006-01-13 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2673 2680
2674 2681 * IPython/platutils*.py: platform specific utility functions,
2675 2682 so far only set_term_title is implemented (change terminal
2676 2683 label in windowing systems). %cd now changes the title to
2677 2684 current dir.
2678 2685
2679 2686 * IPython/Release.py: Added myself to "authors" list,
2680 2687 had to create new files.
2681 2688
2682 2689 * IPython/iplib.py (handle_shell_escape): fixed logical flaw in
2683 2690 shell escape; not a known bug but had potential to be one in the
2684 2691 future.
2685 2692
2686 2693 * IPython/ipapi.py (added),OInspect.py,iplib.py: "Public"
2687 2694 extension API for IPython! See the module for usage example. Fix
2688 2695 OInspect for docstring-less magic functions.
2689 2696
2690 2697
2691 2698 2006-01-13 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2692 2699
2693 2700 * IPython/iplib.py (raw_input): temporarily deactivate all
2694 2701 attempts at allowing pasting of code with autoindent on. It
2695 2702 introduced bugs (reported by Prabhu) and I can't seem to find a
2696 2703 robust combination which works in all cases. Will have to revisit
2697 2704 later.
2698 2705
2699 2706 * IPython/genutils.py: remove isspace() function. We've dropped
2700 2707 2.2 compatibility, so it's OK to use the string method.
2701 2708
2702 2709 2006-01-12 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2703 2710
2704 2711 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.__init__): fix regexp
2705 2712 matching what NOT to autocall on, to include all python binary
2706 2713 operators (including things like 'and', 'or', 'is' and 'in').
2707 2714 Prompted by a bug report on 'foo & bar', but I realized we had
2708 2715 many more potential bug cases with other operators. The regexp is
2709 2716 self.re_exclude_auto, it's fairly commented.
2710 2717
2711 2718 2006-01-12 Ville Vainio <vivainio@gmail.com>
2712 2719
2713 2720 * IPython/iplib.py (make_quoted_expr,handle_shell_escape):
2714 2721 Prettified and hardened string/backslash quoting with ipsystem(),
2715 2722 ipalias() and ipmagic(). Now even \ characters are passed to
2716 2723 %magics, !shell escapes and aliases exactly as they are in the
2717 2724 ipython command line. Should improve backslash experience,
2718 2725 particularly in Windows (path delimiter for some commands that
2719 2726 won't understand '/'), but Unix benefits as well (regexps). %cd
2720 2727 magic still doesn't support backslash path delimiters, though. Also
2721 2728 deleted all pretense of supporting multiline command strings in
2722 2729 !system or %magic commands. Thanks to Jerry McRae for suggestions.
2723 2730
2724 2731 * doc/build_doc_instructions.txt added. Documentation on how to
2725 2732 use doc/update_manual.py, added yesterday. Both files contributed
2726 2733 by JΓΆrgen Stenarson <jorgen.stenarson-AT-bostream.nu>. This slates
2727 2734 doc/*.sh for deprecation at a later date.
2728 2735
2729 2736 * /ipython.py Added ipython.py to root directory for
2730 2737 zero-installation (tar xzvf ipython.tgz; cd ipython; python
2731 2738 ipython.py) and development convenience (no need to keep doing
2732 2739 "setup.py install" between changes).
2733 2740
2734 2741 * Made ! and !! shell escapes work (again) in multiline expressions:
2735 2742 if 1:
2736 2743 !ls
2737 2744 !!ls
2738 2745
2739 2746 2006-01-12 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2740 2747
2741 2748 * IPython/ipstruct.py (Struct): Rename IPython.Struct to
2742 2749 IPython.ipstruct, to avoid local shadowing of the stdlib 'struct'
2743 2750 module in case-insensitive installation. Was causing crashes
2744 2751 under win32. Closes http://www.scipy.net/roundup/ipython/issue49.
2745 2752
2746 2753 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_pycat): Fix pycat, patch by Marien Zwart
2747 2754 <marienz-AT-gentoo.org>, closes
2748 2755 http://www.scipy.net/roundup/ipython/issue51.
2749 2756
2750 2757 2006-01-11 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2751 2758
2752 2759 * IPython/Shell.py (IPShellGTK.on_timer): Finally fix the
2753 2760 problem of excessive CPU usage under *nix and keyboard lag under
2754 2761 win32.
2755 2762
2756 2763 2006-01-10 *** Released version 0.7.0
2757 2764
2758 2765 2006-01-10 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2759 2766
2760 2767 * IPython/Release.py (revision): tag version number to 0.7.0,
2761 2768 ready for release.
2762 2769
2763 2770 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_edit): Add print statement to %edit so
2764 2771 it informs the user of the name of the temp. file used. This can
2765 2772 help if you decide later to reuse that same file, so you know
2766 2773 where to copy the info from.
2767 2774
2768 2775 2006-01-09 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2769 2776
2770 2777 * setup_bdist_egg.py: little script to build an egg. Added
2771 2778 support in the release tools as well.
2772 2779
2773 2780 2006-01-08 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2774 2781
2775 2782 * IPython/Shell.py (IPShellWX.__init__): add support for WXPython
2776 2783 version selection (new -wxversion command line and ipythonrc
2777 2784 parameter). Patch contributed by Arnd Baecker
2778 2785 <arnd.baecker-AT-web.de>.
2779 2786
2780 2787 * IPython/iplib.py (embed_mainloop): fix tab-completion in
2781 2788 embedded instances, for variables defined at the interactive
2782 2789 prompt of the embedded ipython. Reported by Arnd.
2783 2790
2784 2791 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_autocall): Fix %autocall magic. Now
2785 2792 it can be used as a (stateful) toggle, or with a direct parameter.
2786 2793
2787 2794 * IPython/ultraTB.py (_fixed_getinnerframes): remove debug assert which
2788 2795 could be triggered in certain cases and cause the traceback
2789 2796 printer not to work.
2790 2797
2791 2798 2006-01-07 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2792 2799
2793 2800 * IPython/iplib.py (_should_recompile): Small fix, closes
2794 2801 http://www.scipy.net/roundup/ipython/issue48. Patch by Scott.
2795 2802
2796 2803 2006-01-04 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2797 2804
2798 2805 * IPython/Shell.py (IPShellGTK.mainloop): fix bug in the GTK
2799 2806 backend for matplotlib (100% cpu utiliziation). Thanks to Charlie
2800 2807 Moad for help with tracking it down.
2801 2808
2802 2809 * IPython/iplib.py (handle_auto): fix autocall handling for
2803 2810 objects which support BOTH __getitem__ and __call__ (so that f [x]
2804 2811 is left alone, instead of becoming f([x]) automatically).
2805 2812
2806 2813 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_cd): fix crash when cd -b was used.
2807 2814 Ville's patch.
2808 2815
2809 2816 2006-01-03 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2810 2817
2811 2818 * IPython/iplib.py (handle_auto): changed autocall semantics to
2812 2819 include 'smart' mode, where the autocall transformation is NOT
2813 2820 applied if there are no arguments on the line. This allows you to
2814 2821 just type 'foo' if foo is a callable to see its internal form,
2815 2822 instead of having it called with no arguments (typically a
2816 2823 mistake). The old 'full' autocall still exists: for that, you
2817 2824 need to set the 'autocall' parameter to 2 in your ipythonrc file.
2818 2825
2819 2826 * IPython/completer.py (Completer.attr_matches): add
2820 2827 tab-completion support for Enthoughts' traits. After a report by
2821 2828 Arnd and a patch by Prabhu.
2822 2829
2823 2830 2006-01-02 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2824 2831
2825 2832 * IPython/ultraTB.py (_fixed_getinnerframes): added Alex
2826 2833 Schmolck's patch to fix inspect.getinnerframes().
2827 2834
2828 2835 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.__init__): significant fixes
2829 2836 for embedded instances, regarding handling of namespaces and items
2830 2837 added to the __builtin__ one. Multiple embedded instances and
2831 2838 recursive embeddings should work better now (though I'm not sure
2832 2839 I've got all the corner cases fixed, that code is a bit of a brain
2833 2840 twister).
2834 2841
2835 2842 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_edit): added support to edit in-memory
2836 2843 macros (automatically creates the necessary temp files). %edit
2837 2844 also doesn't return the file contents anymore, it's just noise.
2838 2845
2839 2846 * IPython/completer.py (Completer.attr_matches): revert change to
2840 2847 complete only on attributes listed in __all__. I realized it
2841 2848 cripples the tab-completion system as a tool for exploring the
2842 2849 internals of unknown libraries (it renders any non-__all__
2843 2850 attribute off-limits). I got bit by this when trying to see
2844 2851 something inside the dis module.
2845 2852
2846 2853 2005-12-31 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2847 2854
2848 2855 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.__init__): add .meta
2849 2856 namespace for users and extension writers to hold data in. This
2850 2857 follows the discussion in
2851 2858 http://projects.scipy.org/ipython/ipython/wiki/RefactoringIPython.
2852 2859
2853 2860 * IPython/completer.py (IPCompleter.complete): small patch to help
2854 2861 tab-completion under Emacs, after a suggestion by John Barnard
2855 2862 <barnarj-AT-ccf.org>.
2856 2863
2857 2864 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.extract_input_slices): added support for
2858 2865 the slice notation in magics to use N-M to represent numbers N...M
2859 2866 (closed endpoints). This is used by %macro and %save.
2860 2867
2861 2868 * IPython/completer.py (Completer.attr_matches): for modules which
2862 2869 define __all__, complete only on those. After a patch by Jeffrey
2863 2870 Collins <jcollins_boulder-AT-earthlink.net>. Also, clean up and
2864 2871 speed up this routine.
2865 2872
2866 2873 * IPython/Logger.py (Logger.log): fix a history handling bug. I
2867 2874 don't know if this is the end of it, but the behavior now is
2868 2875 certainly much more correct. Note that coupled with macros,
2869 2876 slightly surprising (at first) behavior may occur: a macro will in
2870 2877 general expand to multiple lines of input, so upon exiting, the
2871 2878 in/out counters will both be bumped by the corresponding amount
2872 2879 (as if the macro's contents had been typed interactively). Typing
2873 2880 %hist will reveal the intermediate (silently processed) lines.
2874 2881
2875 2882 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_run): fix a subtle bug which could cause
2876 2883 pickle to fail (%run was overwriting __main__ and not restoring
2877 2884 it, but pickle relies on __main__ to operate).
2878 2885
2879 2886 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell): fix pdb calling: I'm now
2880 2887 using properties, but forgot to make the main InteractiveShell
2881 2888 class a new-style class. Properties fail silently, and
2882 2889 mysteriously, with old-style class (getters work, but
2883 2890 setters don't do anything).
2884 2891
2885 2892 2005-12-30 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2886 2893
2887 2894 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_history): fix history reporting bug (I
2888 2895 know some nasties are still there, I just can't seem to find a
2889 2896 reproducible test case to track them down; the input history is
2890 2897 falling out of sync...)
2891 2898
2892 2899 * IPython/iplib.py (handle_shell_escape): fix bug where both
2893 2900 aliases and system accesses where broken for indented code (such
2894 2901 as loops).
2895 2902
2896 2903 * IPython/genutils.py (shell): fix small but critical bug for
2897 2904 win32 system access.
2898 2905
2899 2906 2005-12-29 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2900 2907
2901 2908 * IPython/iplib.py (showtraceback): remove use of the
2902 2909 sys.last_{type/value/traceback} structures, which are non
2903 2910 thread-safe.
2904 2911 (_prefilter): change control flow to ensure that we NEVER
2905 2912 introspect objects when autocall is off. This will guarantee that
2906 2913 having an input line of the form 'x.y', where access to attribute
2907 2914 'y' has side effects, doesn't trigger the side effect TWICE. It
2908 2915 is important to note that, with autocall on, these side effects
2909 2916 can still happen.
2910 2917 (ipsystem): new builtin, to complete the ip{magic/alias/system}
2911 2918 trio. IPython offers these three kinds of special calls which are
2912 2919 not python code, and it's a good thing to have their call method
2913 2920 be accessible as pure python functions (not just special syntax at
2914 2921 the command line). It gives us a better internal implementation
2915 2922 structure, as well as exposing these for user scripting more
2916 2923 cleanly.
2917 2924
2918 2925 * IPython/macro.py (Macro.__init__): moved macros to a standalone
2919 2926 file. Now that they'll be more likely to be used with the
2920 2927 persistance system (%store), I want to make sure their module path
2921 2928 doesn't change in the future, so that we don't break things for
2922 2929 users' persisted data.
2923 2930
2924 2931 * IPython/iplib.py (autoindent_update): move indentation
2925 2932 management into the _text_ processing loop, not the keyboard
2926 2933 interactive one. This is necessary to correctly process non-typed
2927 2934 multiline input (such as macros).
2928 2935
2929 2936 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.format_latex): patch by Stefan van der
2930 2937 Walt <stefan-AT-sun.ac.za> to fix latex formatting of docstrings,
2931 2938 which was producing problems in the resulting manual.
2932 2939 (magic_whos): improve reporting of instances (show their class,
2933 2940 instead of simply printing 'instance' which isn't terribly
2934 2941 informative).
2935 2942
2936 2943 * IPython/genutils.py (shell): commit Jorgen Stenarson's patch
2937 2944 (minor mods) to support network shares under win32.
2938 2945
2939 2946 * IPython/winconsole.py (get_console_size): add new winconsole
2940 2947 module and fixes to page_dumb() to improve its behavior under
2941 2948 win32. Contributed by Alexander Belchenko <bialix-AT-ukr.net>.
2942 2949
2943 2950 * IPython/Magic.py (Macro): simplified Macro class to just
2944 2951 subclass list. We've had only 2.2 compatibility for a very long
2945 2952 time, yet I was still avoiding subclassing the builtin types. No
2946 2953 more (I'm also starting to use properties, though I won't shift to
2947 2954 2.3-specific features quite yet).
2948 2955 (magic_store): added Ville's patch for lightweight variable
2949 2956 persistence, after a request on the user list by Matt Wilkie
2950 2957 <maphew-AT-gmail.com>. The new %store magic's docstring has full
2951 2958 details.
2952 2959
2953 2960 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.post_config_initialization):
2954 2961 changed the default logfile name from 'ipython.log' to
2955 2962 'ipython_log.py'. These logs are real python files, and now that
2956 2963 we have much better multiline support, people are more likely to
2957 2964 want to use them as such. Might as well name them correctly.
2958 2965
2959 2966 * IPython/Magic.py: substantial cleanup. While we can't stop
2960 2967 using magics as mixins, due to the existing customizations 'out
2961 2968 there' which rely on the mixin naming conventions, at least I
2962 2969 cleaned out all cross-class name usage. So once we are OK with
2963 2970 breaking compatibility, the two systems can be separated.
2964 2971
2965 2972 * IPython/Logger.py: major cleanup. This one is NOT a mixin
2966 2973 anymore, and the class is a fair bit less hideous as well. New
2967 2974 features were also introduced: timestamping of input, and logging
2968 2975 of output results. These are user-visible with the -t and -o
2969 2976 options to %logstart. Closes
2970 2977 http://www.scipy.net/roundup/ipython/issue11 and a request by
2971 2978 William Stein (SAGE developer - http://modular.ucsd.edu/sage).
2972 2979
2973 2980 2005-12-28 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
2974 2981
2975 2982 * IPython/iplib.py (handle_shell_escape): add Ville's patch to
2976 2983 better handle backslashes in paths. See the thread 'More Windows
2977 2984 questions part 2 - \/ characters revisited' on the iypthon user
2978 2985 list:
2979 2986 http://scipy.net/pipermail/ipython-user/2005-June/000907.html
2980 2987
2981 2988 (InteractiveShell.__init__): fix tab-completion bug in threaded shells.
2982 2989
2983 2990 (InteractiveShell.__init__): change threaded shells to not use the
2984 2991 ipython crash handler. This was causing more problems than not,
2985 2992 as exceptions in the main thread (GUI code, typically) would
2986 2993 always show up as a 'crash', when they really weren't.
2987 2994
2988 2995 The colors and exception mode commands (%colors/%xmode) have been
2989 2996 synchronized to also take this into account, so users can get
2990 2997 verbose exceptions for their threaded code as well. I also added
2991 2998 support for activating pdb inside this exception handler as well,
2992 2999 so now GUI authors can use IPython's enhanced pdb at runtime.
2993 3000
2994 3001 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): make the autoedit_syntax flag
2995 3002 true by default, and add it to the shipped ipythonrc file. Since
2996 3003 this asks the user before proceeding, I think it's OK to make it
2997 3004 true by default.
2998 3005
2999 3006 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_exit): make new exit/quit magics instead
3000 3007 of the previous special-casing of input in the eval loop. I think
3001 3008 this is cleaner, as they really are commands and shouldn't have
3002 3009 a special role in the middle of the core code.
3003 3010
3004 3011 2005-12-27 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
3005 3012
3006 3013 * IPython/iplib.py (edit_syntax_error): added support for
3007 3014 automatically reopening the editor if the file had a syntax error
3008 3015 in it. Thanks to scottt who provided the patch at:
3009 3016 http://www.scipy.net/roundup/ipython/issue36 (slightly modified
3010 3017 version committed).
3011 3018
3012 3019 * IPython/iplib.py (handle_normal): add suport for multi-line
3013 3020 input with emtpy lines. This fixes
3014 3021 http://www.scipy.net/roundup/ipython/issue43 and a similar
3015 3022 discussion on the user list.
3016 3023
3017 3024 WARNING: a behavior change is necessarily introduced to support
3018 3025 blank lines: now a single blank line with whitespace does NOT
3019 3026 break the input loop, which means that when autoindent is on, by
3020 3027 default hitting return on the next (indented) line does NOT exit.
3021 3028
3022 3029 Instead, to exit a multiline input you can either have:
3023 3030
3024 3031 - TWO whitespace lines (just hit return again), or
3025 3032 - a single whitespace line of a different length than provided
3026 3033 by the autoindent (add or remove a space).
3027 3034
3028 3035 * IPython/completer.py (MagicCompleter.__init__): new 'completer'
3029 3036 module to better organize all readline-related functionality.
3030 3037 I've deleted FlexCompleter and put all completion clases here.
3031 3038
3032 3039 * IPython/iplib.py (raw_input): improve indentation management.
3033 3040 It is now possible to paste indented code with autoindent on, and
3034 3041 the code is interpreted correctly (though it still looks bad on
3035 3042 screen, due to the line-oriented nature of ipython).
3036 3043 (MagicCompleter.complete): change behavior so that a TAB key on an
3037 3044 otherwise empty line actually inserts a tab, instead of completing
3038 3045 on the entire global namespace. This makes it easier to use the
3039 3046 TAB key for indentation. After a request by Hans Meine
3040 3047 <hans_meine-AT-gmx.net>
3041 3048 (_prefilter): add support so that typing plain 'exit' or 'quit'
3042 3049 does a sensible thing. Originally I tried to deviate as little as
3043 3050 possible from the default python behavior, but even that one may
3044 3051 change in this direction (thread on python-dev to that effect).
3045 3052 Regardless, ipython should do the right thing even if CPython's
3046 3053 '>>>' prompt doesn't.
3047 3054 (InteractiveShell): removed subclassing code.InteractiveConsole
3048 3055 class. By now we'd overridden just about all of its methods: I've
3049 3056 copied the remaining two over, and now ipython is a standalone
3050 3057 class. This will provide a clearer picture for the chainsaw
3051 3058 branch refactoring.
3052 3059
3053 3060 2005-12-26 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
3054 3061
3055 3062 * IPython/ultraTB.py (VerboseTB.text): harden reporting against
3056 3063 failures for objects which break when dir() is called on them.
3057 3064
3058 3065 * IPython/FlexCompleter.py (Completer.__init__): Added support for
3059 3066 distinct local and global namespaces in the completer API. This
3060 3067 change allows us to properly handle completion with distinct
3061 3068 scopes, including in embedded instances (this had never really
3062 3069 worked correctly).
3063 3070
3064 3071 Note: this introduces a change in the constructor for
3065 3072 MagicCompleter, as a new global_namespace parameter is now the
3066 3073 second argument (the others were bumped one position).
3067 3074
3068 3075 2005-12-25 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
3069 3076
3070 3077 * IPython/iplib.py (embed_mainloop): fix tab-completion in
3071 3078 embedded instances (which can be done now thanks to Vivian's
3072 3079 frame-handling fixes for pdb).
3073 3080 (InteractiveShell.__init__): Fix namespace handling problem in
3074 3081 embedded instances. We were overwriting __main__ unconditionally,
3075 3082 and this should only be done for 'full' (non-embedded) IPython;
3076 3083 embedded instances must respect the caller's __main__. Thanks to
3077 3084 a bug report by Yaroslav Bulatov <yaroslavvb-AT-gmail.com>
3078 3085
3079 3086 2005-12-24 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
3080 3087
3081 3088 * setup.py: added download_url to setup(). This registers the
3082 3089 download address at PyPI, which is not only useful to humans
3083 3090 browsing the site, but is also picked up by setuptools (the Eggs
3084 3091 machinery). Thanks to Ville and R. Kern for the info/discussion
3085 3092 on this.
3086 3093
3087 3094 2005-12-23 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
3088 3095
3089 3096 * IPython/Debugger.py (Pdb.__init__): Major pdb mode enhancements.
3090 3097 This brings a lot of nice functionality to the pdb mode, which now
3091 3098 has tab-completion, syntax highlighting, and better stack handling
3092 3099 than before. Many thanks to Vivian De Smedt
3093 3100 <vivian-AT-vdesmedt.com> for the original patches.
3094 3101
3095 3102 2005-12-08 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
3096 3103
3097 3104 * IPython/Shell.py (IPShellGTK.mainloop): fix mainloop() calling
3098 3105 sequence to consistently accept the banner argument. The
3099 3106 inconsistency was tripping SAGE, thanks to Gary Zablackis
3100 3107 <gzabl-AT-yahoo.com> for the report.
3101 3108
3102 3109 2005-11-15 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
3103 3110
3104 3111 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.post_config_initialization):
3105 3112 Fix bug where a naked 'alias' call in the ipythonrc file would
3106 3113 cause a crash. Bug reported by Jorgen Stenarson.
3107 3114
3108 3115 2005-11-15 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
3109 3116
3110 3117 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): cleanups which should improve
3111 3118 startup time.
3112 3119
3113 3120 * IPython/iplib.py (runcode): my globals 'fix' for embedded
3114 3121 instances had introduced a bug with globals in normal code. Now
3115 3122 it's working in all cases.
3116 3123
3117 3124 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_psearch): Finish wildcard cleanup and
3118 3125 API changes. A new ipytonrc option, 'wildcards_case_sensitive'
3119 3126 has been introduced to set the default case sensitivity of the
3120 3127 searches. Users can still select either mode at runtime on a
3121 3128 per-search basis.
3122 3129
3123 3130 2005-11-13 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
3124 3131
3125 3132 * IPython/wildcard.py (NameSpace.__init__): fix resolution of
3126 3133 attributes in wildcard searches for subclasses. Modified version
3127 3134 of a patch by Jorgen.
3128 3135
3129 3136 2005-11-12 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
3130 3137
3131 3138 * IPython/iplib.py (embed_mainloop): Fix handling of globals for
3132 3139 embedded instances. I added a user_global_ns attribute to the
3133 3140 InteractiveShell class to handle this.
3134 3141
3135 3142 2005-10-31 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
3136 3143
3137 3144 * IPython/Shell.py (IPShellGTK.mainloop): Change timeout_add to
3138 3145 idle_add, which fixes horrible keyboard lag problems under gtk 2.6
3139 3146 (reported under win32, but may happen also in other platforms).
3140 3147 Bug report and fix courtesy of Sean Moore <smm-AT-logic.bm>
3141 3148
3142 3149 2005-10-15 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
3143 3150
3144 3151 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_psearch): new support for wildcard
3145 3152 patterns. Now, typing ?a*b will list all names which begin with a
3146 3153 and end in b, for example. The %psearch magic has full
3147 3154 docstrings. Many thanks to JΓΆrgen Stenarson
3148 3155 <jorgen.stenarson-AT-bostream.nu>, author of the patches
3149 3156 implementing this functionality.
3150 3157
3151 3158 2005-09-27 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
3152 3159
3153 3160 * Manual: fixed long-standing annoyance of double-dashes (as in
3154 3161 --prefix=~, for example) being stripped in the HTML version. This
3155 3162 is a latex2html bug, but a workaround was provided. Many thanks
3156 3163 to George K. Thiruvathukal <gthiruv-AT-luc.edu> for the detailed
3157 3164 help, and Michael Tobis <mtobis-AT-gmail.com> for getting the ball
3158 3165 rolling. This seemingly small issue had tripped a number of users
3159 3166 when first installing, so I'm glad to see it gone.
3160 3167
3161 3168 2005-09-27 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
3162 3169
3163 3170 * IPython/Extensions/numeric_formats.py: fix missing import,
3164 3171 reported by Stephen Walton.
3165 3172
3166 3173 2005-09-24 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
3167 3174
3168 3175 * IPython/demo.py: finish demo module, fully documented now.
3169 3176
3170 3177 * IPython/genutils.py (file_read): simple little utility to read a
3171 3178 file and ensure it's closed afterwards.
3172 3179
3173 3180 2005-09-23 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
3174 3181
3175 3182 * IPython/demo.py (Demo.__init__): added support for individually
3176 3183 tagging blocks for automatic execution.
3177 3184
3178 3185 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_pycat): new %pycat magic for showing
3179 3186 syntax-highlighted python sources, requested by John.
3180 3187
3181 3188 2005-09-22 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
3182 3189
3183 3190 * IPython/demo.py (Demo.again): fix bug where again() blocks after
3184 3191 finishing.
3185 3192
3186 3193 * IPython/genutils.py (shlex_split): moved from Magic to here,
3187 3194 where all 2.2 compatibility stuff lives. I needed it for demo.py.
3188 3195
3189 3196 * IPython/demo.py (Demo.__init__): added support for silent
3190 3197 blocks, improved marks as regexps, docstrings written.
3191 3198 (Demo.__init__): better docstring, added support for sys.argv.
3192 3199
3193 3200 * IPython/genutils.py (marquee): little utility used by the demo
3194 3201 code, handy in general.
3195 3202
3196 3203 * IPython/demo.py (Demo.__init__): new class for interactive
3197 3204 demos. Not documented yet, I just wrote it in a hurry for
3198 3205 scipy'05. Will docstring later.
3199 3206
3200 3207 2005-09-20 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
3201 3208
3202 3209 * IPython/Shell.py (sigint_handler): Drastic simplification which
3203 3210 also seems to make Ctrl-C work correctly across threads! This is
3204 3211 so simple, that I can't beleive I'd missed it before. Needs more
3205 3212 testing, though.
3206 3213 (KBINT): Never mind, revert changes. I'm sure I'd tried something
3207 3214 like this before...
3208 3215
3209 3216 * IPython/genutils.py (get_home_dir): add protection against
3210 3217 non-dirs in win32 registry.
3211 3218
3212 3219 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.alias_table_validate): fix
3213 3220 bug where dict was mutated while iterating (pysh crash).
3214 3221
3215 3222 2005-09-06 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
3216 3223
3217 3224 * IPython/iplib.py (handle_auto): Fix inconsistency arising from
3218 3225 spurious newlines added by this routine. After a report by
3219 3226 F. Mantegazza.
3220 3227
3221 3228 2005-09-05 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
3222 3229
3223 3230 * IPython/Shell.py (hijack_gtk): remove pygtk.require("2.0")
3224 3231 calls. These were a leftover from the GTK 1.x days, and can cause
3225 3232 problems in certain cases (after a report by John Hunter).
3226 3233
3227 3234 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.__init__): Trap exception if
3228 3235 os.getcwd() fails at init time. Thanks to patch from David Remahl
3229 3236 <chmod007-AT-mac.com>.
3230 3237 (InteractiveShell.__init__): prevent certain special magics from
3231 3238 being shadowed by aliases. Closes
3232 3239 http://www.scipy.net/roundup/ipython/issue41.
3233 3240
3234 3241 2005-08-31 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
3235 3242
3236 3243 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.complete): Added new
3237 3244 top-level completion method to expose the completion mechanism
3238 3245 beyond readline-based environments.
3239 3246
3240 3247 2005-08-19 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
3241 3248
3242 3249 * tools/ipsvnc (svnversion): fix svnversion capture.
3243 3250
3244 3251 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.__init__): Add has_readline
3245 3252 attribute to self, which was missing. Before, it was set by a
3246 3253 routine which in certain cases wasn't being called, so the
3247 3254 instance could end up missing the attribute. This caused a crash.
3248 3255 Closes http://www.scipy.net/roundup/ipython/issue40.
3249 3256
3250 3257 2005-08-16 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3251 3258
3252 3259 * IPython/ultraTB.py (VerboseTB.text): don't crash if object
3253 3260 contains non-string attribute. Closes
3254 3261 http://www.scipy.net/roundup/ipython/issue38.
3255 3262
3256 3263 2005-08-14 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3257 3264
3258 3265 * tools/ipsvnc: Minor improvements, to add changeset info.
3259 3266
3260 3267 2005-08-12 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3261 3268
3262 3269 * IPython/iplib.py (runsource): remove self.code_to_run_src
3263 3270 attribute. I realized this is nothing more than
3264 3271 '\n'.join(self.buffer), and having the same data in two different
3265 3272 places is just asking for synchronization bugs. This may impact
3266 3273 people who have custom exception handlers, so I need to warn
3267 3274 ipython-dev about it (F. Mantegazza may use them).
3268 3275
3269 3276 2005-07-29 Fernando Perez <Fernando.Perez@colorado.edu>
3270 3277
3271 3278 * IPython/genutils.py: fix 2.2 compatibility (generators)
3272 3279
3273 3280 2005-07-18 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3274 3281
3275 3282 * IPython/genutils.py (get_home_dir): fix to help users with
3276 3283 invalid $HOME under win32.
3277 3284
3278 3285 2005-07-17 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3279 3286
3280 3287 * IPython/Prompts.py (str_safe): Make unicode-safe. Also remove
3281 3288 some old hacks and clean up a bit other routines; code should be
3282 3289 simpler and a bit faster.
3283 3290
3284 3291 * IPython/iplib.py (interact): removed some last-resort attempts
3285 3292 to survive broken stdout/stderr. That code was only making it
3286 3293 harder to abstract out the i/o (necessary for gui integration),
3287 3294 and the crashes it could prevent were extremely rare in practice
3288 3295 (besides being fully user-induced in a pretty violent manner).
3289 3296
3290 3297 * IPython/genutils.py (IOStream.__init__): Simplify the i/o stuff.
3291 3298 Nothing major yet, but the code is simpler to read; this should
3292 3299 make it easier to do more serious modifications in the future.
3293 3300
3294 3301 * IPython/Extensions/InterpreterExec.py: Fix auto-quoting in pysh,
3295 3302 which broke in .15 (thanks to a report by Ville).
3296 3303
3297 3304 * IPython/Itpl.py (Itpl.__init__): add unicode support (it may not
3298 3305 be quite correct, I know next to nothing about unicode). This
3299 3306 will allow unicode strings to be used in prompts, amongst other
3300 3307 cases. It also will prevent ipython from crashing when unicode
3301 3308 shows up unexpectedly in many places. If ascii encoding fails, we
3302 3309 assume utf_8. Currently the encoding is not a user-visible
3303 3310 setting, though it could be made so if there is demand for it.
3304 3311
3305 3312 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): remove old 2.1-specific hack.
3306 3313
3307 3314 * IPython/Struct.py (Struct.merge): switch keys() to iterator.
3308 3315
3309 3316 * IPython/background_jobs.py: moved 2.2 compatibility to genutils.
3310 3317
3311 3318 * IPython/genutils.py: Add 2.2 compatibility here, so all other
3312 3319 code can work transparently for 2.2/2.3.
3313 3320
3314 3321 2005-07-16 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3315 3322
3316 3323 * IPython/ultraTB.py (ExceptionColors): Make a global variable
3317 3324 out of the color scheme table used for coloring exception
3318 3325 tracebacks. This allows user code to add new schemes at runtime.
3319 3326 This is a minimally modified version of the patch at
3320 3327 http://www.scipy.net/roundup/ipython/issue35, many thanks to pabw
3321 3328 for the contribution.
3322 3329
3323 3330 * IPython/FlexCompleter.py (Completer.attr_matches): Add a
3324 3331 slightly modified version of the patch in
3325 3332 http://www.scipy.net/roundup/ipython/issue34, which also allows me
3326 3333 to remove the previous try/except solution (which was costlier).
3327 3334 Thanks to Gaetan Lehmann <gaetan.lehmann-AT-jouy.inra.fr> for the fix.

3329 3336 2005-06-08 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3330 3337
3331 3338 * IPython/iplib.py (write/write_err): Add methods to abstract all
3332 3339 I/O a bit more.
3333 3340
3334 3341 * IPython/Shell.py (IPShellGTK.mainloop): Fix GTK deprecation
3335 3342 warning, reported by Aric Hagberg, fix by JD Hunter.

3340 3347
3341 3348 * IPython/iplib.py (MagicCompleter.file_matches): Fix
3342 3349 tab-completion of filenames within open-quoted strings. Note that
3343 3350 this requires that in ~/.ipython/ipythonrc, users change the
3344 3351 readline delimiters configuration to read:

3352 3359
3353 3360 * IPython/ultraTB.py (VerboseTB.text): Fix crash for tracebacks
3354 3361 with files not on the filesystem. Reported by Eliyahu Sandler
3355 3362 <eli@gondolin.net>

3360 3367 After an initial report by LUK ShunTim <shuntim.luk@polyu.edu.hk>.
3361 3368
3362 3369 2005-05-19 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3363 3370
3364 3371 * IPython/iplib.py (safe_execfile): close a file which could be
3365 3372 left open (causing problems in win32, which locks open files).
3366 3373 Thanks to a bug report by D Brown <dbrown2@yahoo.com>.
3367 3374
3368 3375 2005-05-18 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3369 3376
3370 3377 * IPython/Shell.py (MatplotlibShellBase.mplot_exec): pass all
3371 3378 keyword arguments correctly to safe_execfile().
3372 3379
3373 3380 2005-05-13 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3374 3381
3375 3382 * ipython.1: Added info about Qt to manpage, and threads warning
3376 3383 to usage page (invoked with --help).
3377 3384
3378 3385 * IPython/iplib.py (MagicCompleter.python_func_kw_matches): Added
3379 3386 new matcher (it goes at the end of the priority list) to do
3380 3387 tab-completion on named function arguments. Submitted by George
3381 3388 Sakkis <gsakkis-AT-eden.rutgers.edu>. See the thread at
3382 3389 http://www.scipy.net/pipermail/ipython-dev/2005-April/000436.html
3383 3390 for more details.
3384 3391
3385 3392 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_run): Added new -e flag to ignore
3386 3393 SystemExit exceptions in the script being run. Thanks to a report
3387 3394 by danny shevitz <danny_shevitz-AT-yahoo.com>, about this
3388 3395 producing very annoying behavior when running unit tests.
3389 3396
3390 3397 2005-05-12 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3391 3398
3392 3399 * IPython/iplib.py (handle_auto): fixed auto-quoting and parens,
3393 3400 which I'd broken (again) due to a changed regexp. In the process,
3394 3401 added ';' as an escape to auto-quote the whole line without
3395 3402 splitting its arguments. Thanks to a report by Jerry McRae
3396 3403 <qrs0xyc02-AT-sneakemail.com>.
3397 3404
3398 3405 * IPython/ultraTB.py (VerboseTB.text): protect against rare but
3399 3406 possible crashes caused by a TokenError. Reported by Ed Schofield
3400 3407 <schofield-AT-ftw.at>.
3401 3408
3402 3409 2005-05-06 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3403 3410
3404 3411 * IPython/Shell.py (hijack_wx): Fix to work with WX v.2.6.
3405 3412
3406 3413 2005-04-29 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3407 3414
3408 3415 * IPython/Shell.py (IPShellQt): Thanks to Denis Rivière
3409 3416 <nudz-AT-free.fr>, Yann Cointepas <yann-AT-sapetnioc.org> and Benjamin
3410 3417 Thyreau <Benji2-AT-decideur.info>, we now have a -qthread option
3411 3418 which provides support for Qt interactive usage (similar to the
3412 3419 existing one for WX and GTK). This had been often requested.
3413 3420
3414 3421 2005-04-14 *** Released version 0.6.13
3415 3422
3416 3423 2005-04-08 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3417 3424
3418 3425 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic._ofind): remove docstring evaluation
3419 3426 from _ofind, which gets called on almost every input line. Now,
3420 3427 we only try to get docstrings if they are actually going to be
3421 3428 used (the overhead of fetching unnecessary docstrings can be
3422 3429 noticeable for certain objects, such as Pyro proxies).
3423 3430
3424 3431 * IPython/iplib.py (MagicCompleter.python_matches): Change the API
3425 3432 for completers. For some reason I had been passing them the state
3426 3433 variable, which completers never actually need, and was in
3427 3434 conflict with the rlcompleter API. Custom completers ONLY need to
3428 3435 take the text parameter.
3429 3436
3430 3437 * IPython/Extensions/InterpreterExec.py: Fix regexp so that magics
3431 3438 work correctly in pysh. I've also moved all the logic which used
3432 3439 to be in pysh.py here, which will prevent problems with future
3433 3440 upgrades. However, this time I must warn users to update their
3434 3441 pysh profile to include the line
3435 3442
3436 3443 import_all IPython.Extensions.InterpreterExec
3437 3444
3438 3445 because otherwise things won't work for them. They MUST also
3439 3446 delete pysh.py and the line
3440 3447
3441 3448 execfile pysh.py
3442 3449
3443 3450 from their ipythonrc-pysh.
3444 3451
3445 3452 * IPython/FlexCompleter.py (Completer.attr_matches): Make more
3446 3453 robust in the face of objects whose dir() returns non-strings
3447 3454 (which it shouldn't, but some broken libs like ITK do). Thanks to
3448 3455 a patch by John Hunter (implemented differently, though). Also
3449 3456 minor improvements by using .extend instead of + on lists.
3450 3457
3451 3458 * pysh.py:
3452 3459
3453 3460 2005-04-06 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3454 3461
3455 3462 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): Make multi_line_specials on
3456 3463 by default, so that all users benefit from it. Those who don't
3457 3464 want it can still turn it off.
3458 3465
3459 3466 * IPython/UserConfig/ipythonrc: Add multi_line_specials to the
3460 3467 config file, I'd forgotten about this, so users were getting it
3461 3468 off by default.
3462 3469
3463 3470 * IPython/iplib.py (ipmagic): big overhaul of the magic system for
3464 3471 consistency. Now magics can be called in multiline statements,
3465 3472 and python variables can be expanded in magic calls via $var.
3466 3473 This makes the magic system behave just like aliases or !system
3467 3474 calls.
3468 3475
3469 3476 2005-03-28 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3470 3477
3471 3478 * IPython/iplib.py (handle_auto): cleanup to use %s instead of
3472 3479 expensive string additions for building command. Add support for
3473 3480 trailing ';' when autocall is used.
3474 3481
3475 3482 2005-03-26 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3476 3483
3477 3484 * ipython.el: Fix http://www.scipy.net/roundup/ipython/issue31.
3478 3485 Bugfix by A. Schmolck, the ipython.el maintainer. Also make
3479 3486 ipython.el robust against prompts with any number of spaces
3480 3487 (including 0) after the ':' character.
3481 3488
3482 3489 * IPython/Prompts.py (Prompt2.set_p_str): Fix spurious space in
3483 3490 continuation prompt, which misled users to think the line was
3484 3491 already indented. Closes debian Bug#300847, reported to me by
3485 3492 Norbert Tretkowski <tretkowski-AT-inittab.de>.
3486 3493
3487 3494 2005-03-23 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3488 3495
3489 3496 * IPython/Prompts.py (Prompt1.__str__): Make sure that prompts are
3490 3497 properly aligned if they have embedded newlines.
3491 3498
3492 3499 * IPython/iplib.py (runlines): Add a public method to expose
3493 3500 IPython's code execution machinery, so that users can run strings
3494 3501 as if they had been typed at the prompt interactively.
3495 3502 (InteractiveShell.__init__): Added getoutput() to the __IPYTHON__
3496 3503 methods which can call the system shell, but with python variable
3497 3504 expansion. The three such methods are: __IPYTHON__.system,
3498 3505 .getoutput and .getoutputerror. These need to be documented in a
3499 3506 'public API' section (to be written) of the manual.
3500 3507
3501 3508 2005-03-20 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3502 3509
3503 3510 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.set_custom_exc): new system
3504 3511 for custom exception handling. This is quite powerful, and it
3505 3512 allows for user-installable exception handlers which can trap
3506 3513 custom exceptions at runtime and treat them separately from
3507 3514 IPython's default mechanisms. At the request of FrΓ©dΓ©ric
3508 3515 Mantegazza <mantegazza-AT-ill.fr>.
3509 3516 (InteractiveShell.set_custom_completer): public API function to
3510 3517 add new completers at runtime.
3511 3518
3512 3519 2005-03-19 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3513 3520
3514 3521 * IPython/OInspect.py (getdoc): Add a call to obj.getdoc(), to
3515 3522 allow objects which provide their docstrings via non-standard
3516 3523 mechanisms (like Pyro proxies) to still be inspected by ipython's
3517 3524 ? system.
3518 3525
3519 3526 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.__init__): back off the _o/_e
3520 3527 automatic capture system. I tried quite hard to make it work
3521 3528 reliably, and simply failed. I tried many combinations with the
3522 3529 subprocess module, but eventually nothing worked in all needed
3523 3530 cases (not blocking stdin for the child, duplicating stdout
3524 3531 without blocking, etc). The new %sc/%sx still do capture to these
3525 3532 magical list/string objects which make shell use much more
3526 3533 conveninent, so not all is lost.
3527 3534
3528 3535 XXX - FIX MANUAL for the change above!
3529 3536
3530 3537 (runsource): I copied code.py's runsource() into ipython to modify
3531 3538 it a bit. Now the code object and source to be executed are
3532 3539 stored in ipython. This makes this info accessible to third-party
3533 3540 tools, like custom exception handlers. After a request by FrΓ©dΓ©ric
3534 3541 Mantegazza <mantegazza-AT-ill.fr>.
3535 3542
3536 3543 * IPython/UserConfig/ipythonrc: Add up/down arrow keys to
3537 3544 history-search via readline (like C-p/C-n). I'd wanted this for a
3538 3545 long time, but only recently found out how to do it. For users
3539 3546 who already have their ipythonrc files made and want this, just
3540 3547 add:
3541 3548
3542 3549 readline_parse_and_bind "\e[A": history-search-backward
3543 3550 readline_parse_and_bind "\e[B": history-search-forward
3544 3551
3545 3552 2005-03-18 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3546 3553
3547 3554 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_sc): %sc and %sx now use the fancy
3548 3555 LSString and SList classes which allow transparent conversions
3549 3556 between list mode and whitespace-separated string.
3550 3557 (magic_r): Fix recursion problem in %r.
3551 3558
3552 3559 * IPython/genutils.py (LSString): New class to be used for
3553 3560 automatic storage of the results of all alias/system calls in _o
3554 3561 and _e (stdout/err). These provide a .l/.list attribute which
3555 3562 does automatic splitting on newlines. This means that for most
3556 3563 uses, you'll never need to do capturing of output with %sc/%sx
3557 3564 anymore, since ipython keeps this always done for you. Note that
3558 3565 only the LAST results are stored, the _o/e variables are
3559 3566 overwritten on each call. If you need to save their contents
3560 3567 further, simply bind them to any other name.
3561 3568
3562 3569 2005-03-17 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3563 3570
3564 3571 * IPython/Prompts.py (BasePrompt.cwd_filt): a few more fixes for
3565 3572 prompt namespace handling.
3566 3573
3567 3574 2005-03-16 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3568 3575
3569 3576 * IPython/Prompts.py (CachedOutput.__init__): Fix default and
3570 3577 classic prompts to be '>>> ' (final space was missing, and it
3571 3578 trips the emacs python mode).
3572 3579 (BasePrompt.__str__): Added safe support for dynamic prompt
3573 3580 strings. Now you can set your prompt string to be '$x', and the
3574 3581 value of x will be printed from your interactive namespace. The
3575 3582 interpolation syntax includes the full Itpl support, so
3576 3583 ${foo()+x+bar()} is a valid prompt string now, and the function
3577 3584 calls will be made at runtime.
3578 3585
3579 3586 2005-03-15 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3580 3587
3581 3588 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_history): renamed %hist to %history, to
3582 3589 avoid name clashes in pylab. %hist still works, it just forwards
3583 3590 the call to %history.
3584 3591
3585 3592 2005-03-02 *** Released version 0.6.12
3586 3593
3587 3594 2005-03-02 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3588 3595
3589 3596 * IPython/iplib.py (handle_magic): log magic calls properly as
3590 3597 ipmagic() function calls.
3591 3598
3592 3599 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_time): Improved %time to support
3593 3600 statements and provide wall-clock as well as CPU time.
3594 3601
3595 3602 2005-02-27 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3596 3603
3597 3604 * IPython/hooks.py: New hooks module, to expose user-modifiable
3598 3605 IPython functionality in a clean manner. For now only the editor
3599 3606 hook is actually written, and other thigns which I intend to turn
3600 3607 into proper hooks aren't yet there. The display and prefilter
3601 3608 stuff, for example, should be hooks. But at least now the
3602 3609 framework is in place, and the rest can be moved here with more
3603 3610 time later. IPython had had a .hooks variable for a long time for
3604 3611 this purpose, but I'd never actually used it for anything.
3605 3612
3606 3613 2005-02-26 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3607 3614
3608 3615 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): make the default ipython
3609 3616 directory be called _ipython under win32, to follow more the
3610 3617 naming peculiarities of that platform (where buggy software like
3611 3618 Visual Sourcesafe breaks with .named directories). Reported by
3612 3619 Ville Vainio.
3613 3620
3614 3621 2005-02-23 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3615 3622
3616 3623 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.__init__): removed a few
3617 3624 auto_aliases for win32 which were causing problems. Users can
3618 3625 define the ones they personally like.
3619 3626
3620 3627 2005-02-21 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3621 3628
3622 3629 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_time): new magic to time execution of
3623 3630 expressions. After a request by Charles Moad <cmoad-AT-indiana.edu>.
3624 3631
3625 3632 2005-02-19 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3626 3633
3627 3634 * IPython/ConfigLoader.py (ConfigLoader.load): Allow empty strings
3628 3635 into keys (for prompts, for example).
3629 3636
3630 3637 * IPython/Prompts.py (BasePrompt.set_p_str): Fix to allow empty
3631 3638 prompts in case users want them. This introduces a small behavior
3632 3639 change: ipython does not automatically add a space to all prompts
3633 3640 anymore. To get the old prompts with a space, users should add it
3634 3641 manually to their ipythonrc file, so for example prompt_in1 should
3635 3642 now read 'In [\#]: ' instead of 'In [\#]:'.
3636 3643 (BasePrompt.__init__): New option prompts_pad_left (only in rc
3637 3644 file) to control left-padding of secondary prompts.
3638 3645
3639 3646 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.profile_missing_notice): Don't crash if
3640 3647 the profiler can't be imported. Fix for Debian, which removed
3641 3648 profile.py because of License issues. I applied a slightly
3642 3649 modified version of the original Debian patch at
3643 3650 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=294500.

3646 3653
3647 3654 * IPython/genutils.py (native_line_ends): Fix bug which would
3648 3655 cause improper line-ends under win32 b/c I was not opening files
3649 3656 in binary mode. Bug report and fix thanks to Ville.
3650 3657
3651 3658 * IPython/iplib.py (handle_auto): Fix bug which I introduced when
3652 3659 trying to catch spurious foo[1] autocalls. My fix actually broke
3653 3660 ',/' autoquote/call with explicit escape (bad regexp).
3654 3661
3655 3662 2005-02-15 *** Released version 0.6.11
3656 3663
3657 3664 2005-02-14 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3658 3665
3659 3666 * IPython/background_jobs.py: New background job management
3660 3667 subsystem. This is implemented via a new set of classes, and
3661 3668 IPython now provides a builtin 'jobs' object for background job
3662 3669 execution. A convenience %bg magic serves as a lightweight
3663 3670 frontend for starting the more common type of calls. This was
3664 3671 inspired by discussions with B. Granger and the BackgroundCommand
3665 3672 class described in the book Python Scripting for Computational
3666 3673 Science, by H. P. Langtangen: http://folk.uio.no/hpl/scripting
3667 3674 (although ultimately no code from this text was used, as IPython's
3668 3675 system is a separate implementation).
3669 3676
3670 3677 * IPython/iplib.py (MagicCompleter.python_matches): add new option
3671 3678 to control the completion of single/double underscore names
3672 3679 separately. As documented in the example ipytonrc file, the
3673 3680 readline_omit__names variable can now be set to 2, to omit even
3674 3681 single underscore names. Thanks to a patch by Brian Wong
3675 3682 <BrianWong-AT-AirgoNetworks.Com>.
3676 3683 (InteractiveShell.__init__): Fix bug which would cause foo[1] to
3677 3684 be autocalled as foo([1]) if foo were callable. A problem for
3678 3685 things which are both callable and implement __getitem__.
3679 3686 (init_readline): Fix autoindentation for win32. Thanks to a patch
3680 3687 by Vivian De Smedt <vivian-AT-vdesmedt.com>.

3683 3690
3684 3691 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): Disabled the stout traps
3685 3692 which I had written long ago to sort out user error messages which
3686 3693 may occur during startup. This seemed like a good idea initially,
3687 3694 but it has proven a disaster in retrospect. I don't want to
3688 3695 change much code for now, so my fix is to set the internal 'debug'
3689 3696 flag to true everywhere, whose only job was precisely to control
3690 3697 this subsystem. This closes issue 28 (as well as avoiding all
3691 3698 sorts of strange hangups which occur from time to time).

3694 3701
3695 3702 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_edit): Fix 'ed -p' not working when the
3696 3703 previous call produced a syntax error.
3697 3704
3698 3705 * IPython/OInspect.py (Inspector.pinfo): Fix crash when inspecting
3699 3706 classes without constructor.

3701 3708 2005-02-06 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3702 3709
3703 3710 * IPython/iplib.py (MagicCompleter.complete): Extend the list of
3704 3711 completions with the results of each matcher, so we return results
3705 3712 to the user from all namespaces. This breaks with ipython
3706 3713 tradition, but I think it's a nicer behavior. Now you get all
3707 3714 possible completions listed, from all possible namespaces (python,
3708 3715 filesystem, magics...) After a request by John Hunter
3709 3716 <jdhunter-AT-nitace.bsd.uchicago.edu>.

3711 3718 2005-02-05 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3712 3719
3713 3720 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_prun): Fix bug where prun would fail if
3714 3721 the call had quote characters in it (the quotes were stripped).
3715 3722
3716 3723 2005-01-31 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3717 3724
3718 3725 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.__init__): reduce reliance on
3719 3726 Itpl.itpl() to make the code more robust against psyco
3720 3727 optimizations.
3721 3728
3722 3729 * IPython/Itpl.py (Itpl.__str__): Use a _getframe() call instead
3723 3730 of causing an exception. Quicker, cleaner.
3724 3731
3725 3732 2005-01-28 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3726 3733
3727 3734 * scripts/ipython_win_post_install.py (install): hardcode
3728 3735 sys.prefix+'python.exe' as the executable path. It turns out that
3729 3736 during the post-installation run, sys.executable resolves to the
3730 3737 name of the binary installer! I should report this as a distutils
3731 3738 bug, I think. I updated the .10 release with this tiny fix, to
3732 3739 avoid annoying the lists further.
3733 3740
3734 3741 2005-01-27 *** Released version 0.6.10
3735 3742
3736 3743 2005-01-27 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3737 3744
3738 3745 * IPython/numutils.py (norm): Added 'inf' as optional name for
3739 3746 L-infinity norm, included references to mathworld.com for vector
3740 3747 norm definitions.
3741 3748 (amin/amax): added amin/amax for array min/max. Similar to what
3742 3749 pylab ships with after the recent reorganization of names.
3743 3750 (spike/spike_odd): removed deprecated spike/spike_odd functions.
3744 3751
3745 3752 * ipython.el: committed Alex's recent fixes and improvements.
3746 3753 Tested with python-mode from CVS, and it looks excellent. Since
3747 3754 python-mode hasn't released anything in a while, I'm temporarily
3748 3755 putting a copy of today's CVS (v 4.70) of python-mode in:
3749 3756 http://ipython.scipy.org/tmp/python-mode.el
3750 3757
3751 3758 * scripts/ipython_win_post_install.py (install): Win32 fix to use
3752 3759 sys.executable for the executable name, instead of assuming it's
3753 3760 called 'python.exe' (the post-installer would have produced broken
3754 3761 setups on systems with a differently named python binary).
3755 3762
3756 3763 * IPython/PyColorize.py (Parser.__call__): change explicit '\n'
3757 3764 references to os.linesep, to make the code more
3758 3765 platform-independent. This is also part of the win32 coloring
3759 3766 fixes.
3760 3767
3761 3768 * IPython/genutils.py (page_dumb): Remove attempts to chop long
3762 3769 lines, which actually cause coloring bugs because the length of
3763 3770 the line is very difficult to correctly compute with embedded
3764 3771 escapes. This was the source of all the coloring problems under
3765 3772 Win32. I think that _finally_, Win32 users have a properly
3766 3773 working ipython in all respects. This would never have happened
3767 3774 if not for Gary Bishop and Viktor Ransmayr's great help and work.
3768 3775
3769 3776 2005-01-26 *** Released version 0.6.9
3770 3777
3771 3778 2005-01-25 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3772 3779
3773 3780 * setup.py: finally, we have a true Windows installer, thanks to
3774 3781 the excellent work of Viktor Ransmayr
3775 3782 <viktor.ransmayr-AT-t-online.de>. The docs have been updated for
3776 3783 Windows users. The setup routine is quite a bit cleaner thanks to
3777 3784 this, and the post-install script uses the proper functions to
3778 3785 allow a clean de-installation using the standard Windows Control
3779 3786 Panel.
3780 3787
3781 3788 * IPython/genutils.py (get_home_dir): changed to use the $HOME
3782 3789 environment variable under all OSes (including win32) if
3783 3790 available. This will give consistency to win32 users who have set
3784 3791 this variable for any reason. If os.environ['HOME'] fails, the
3785 3792 previous policy of using HOMEDRIVE\HOMEPATH kicks in.
3786 3793
3787 3794 2005-01-24 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3788 3795
3789 3796 * IPython/numutils.py (empty_like): add empty_like(), similar to
3790 3797 zeros_like() but taking advantage of the new empty() Numeric routine.
3791 3798
3792 3799 2005-01-23 *** Released version 0.6.8
3793 3800
3794 3801 2005-01-22 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3795 3802
3796 3803 * IPython/Shell.py (MatplotlibShellBase.mplot_exec): I removed the
3797 3804 automatic show() calls. After discussing things with JDH, it
3798 3805 turns out there are too many corner cases where this can go wrong.
3799 3806 It's best not to try to be 'too smart', and simply have ipython
3800 3807 reproduce as much as possible the default behavior of a normal
3801 3808 python shell.
3802 3809
3803 3810 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.__init__): Modified the
3804 3811 line-splitting regexp and _prefilter() to avoid calling getattr()
3805 3812 on assignments. This closes
3806 3813 http://www.scipy.net/roundup/ipython/issue24. Note that Python's
3807 3814 readline uses getattr(), so a simple <TAB> keypress is still
3808 3815 enough to trigger getattr() calls on an object.
3809 3816
3810 3817 2005-01-21 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3811 3818
3812 3819 * IPython/Shell.py (MatplotlibShellBase.magic_run): Fix the %run
3813 3820 docstring under pylab so it doesn't mask the original.
3814 3821
3815 3822 2005-01-21 *** Released version 0.6.7
3816 3823
3817 3824 2005-01-21 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3818 3825
3819 3826 * IPython/Shell.py (MTInteractiveShell.runcode): Trap a crash with
3820 3827 signal handling for win32 users in multithreaded mode.
3821 3828
3822 3829 2005-01-17 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3823 3830
3824 3831 * IPython/OInspect.py (Inspector.pinfo): Fix crash when inspecting
3825 3832 instances with no __init__. After a crash report by Norbert Nemec
3826 3833 <Norbert-AT-nemec-online.de>.
3827 3834
3828 3835 2005-01-14 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3829 3836
3830 3837 * IPython/ultraTB.py (VerboseTB.text): Fix bug in reporting of
3831 3838 names for verbose exceptions, when multiple dotted names and the
3832 3839 'parent' object were present on the same line.
3833 3840
3834 3841 2005-01-11 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3835 3842
3836 3843 * IPython/genutils.py (flag_calls): new utility to trap and flag
3837 3844 calls in functions. I need it to clean up matplotlib support.
3838 3845 Also removed some deprecated code in genutils.
3839 3846
3840 3847 * IPython/Shell.py (MatplotlibShellBase.mplot_exec): small fix so
3841 3848 that matplotlib scripts called with %run, which don't call show()
3842 3849 themselves, still have their plotting windows open.
3843 3850
3844 3851 2005-01-05 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3845 3852
3846 3853 * IPython/Shell.py (IPShellGTK.__init__): Patch by Andrew Straw
3847 3854 <astraw-AT-caltech.edu>, to fix gtk deprecation warnings.
3848 3855
3849 3856 2004-12-19 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3850 3857
3851 3858 * IPython/Shell.py (MTInteractiveShell.runcode): Get rid of
3852 3859 parent_runcode, which was an eyesore. The same result can be
3853 3860 obtained with Python's regular superclass mechanisms.
3854 3861
3855 3862 2004-12-17 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3856 3863
3857 3864 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_sc): Fix quote stripping problem
3858 3865 reported by Prabhu.
3859 3866 (Magic.magic_sx): direct all errors to Term.cerr (defaults to
3860 3867 sys.stderr) instead of explicitly calling sys.stderr. This helps
3861 3868 maintain our I/O abstractions clean, for future GUI embeddings.
3862 3869
3863 3870 * IPython/genutils.py (info): added new utility for sys.stderr
3864 3871 unified info message handling (thin wrapper around warn()).
3865 3872
3866 3873 * IPython/ultraTB.py (VerboseTB.text): Fix misreported global
3867 3874 composite (dotted) names on verbose exceptions.
3868 3875 (VerboseTB.nullrepr): harden against another kind of errors which
3869 3876 Python's inspect module can trigger, and which were crashing
3870 3877 IPython. Thanks to a report by Marco Lombardi
3871 3878 <mlombard-AT-ma010192.hq.eso.org>.
3872 3879
3873 3880 2004-12-13 *** Released version 0.6.6
3874 3881
3875 3882 2004-12-12 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3876 3883
3877 3884 * IPython/Shell.py (IPShellGTK.mainloop): catch RuntimeErrors
3878 3885 generated by pygtk upon initialization if it was built without
3879 3886 threads (for matplotlib users). After a crash reported by
3880 3887 Leguijt, Jaap J SIEP-EPT-RES <Jaap.Leguijt-AT-shell.com>.
3881 3888
3882 3889 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): fix small bug in the
3883 3890 import_some parameter for multiple imports.
3884 3891
3885 3892 * IPython/iplib.py (ipmagic): simplified the interface of
3886 3893 ipmagic() to take a single string argument, just as it would be
3887 3894 typed at the IPython cmd line.
3888 3895 (ipalias): Added new ipalias() with an interface identical to
3889 3896 ipmagic(). This completes exposing a pure python interface to the
3890 3897 alias and magic system, which can be used in loops or more complex
3891 3898 code where IPython's automatic line mangling is not active.
3892 3899
3893 3900 * IPython/genutils.py (timing): changed interface of timing to
3894 3901 simply run code once, which is the most common case. timings()
3895 3902 remains unchanged, for the cases where you want multiple runs.
3896 3903
3897 3904 * IPython/Shell.py (MatplotlibShellBase._matplotlib_config): Fix a
3898 3905 bug where Python2.2 crashes with exec'ing code which does not end
3899 3906 in a single newline. Python 2.3 is OK, so I hadn't noticed this
3900 3907 before.
3901 3908
3902 3909 2004-12-10 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3903 3910
3904 3911 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_prun): changed name of option from
3905 3912 -t to -T, to accomodate the new -t flag in %run (the %run and
3906 3913 %prun options are kind of intermixed, and it's not easy to change
3907 3914 this with the limitations of python's getopt).
3908 3915
3909 3916 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_run): Added new -t option to time
3910 3917 the execution of scripts. It's not as fine-tuned as timeit.py,
3911 3918 but it works from inside ipython (and under 2.2, which lacks
3912 3919 timeit.py). Optionally a number of runs > 1 can be given for
3913 3920 timing very short-running code.
3914 3921
3915 3922 * IPython/genutils.py (uniq_stable): new routine which returns a
3916 3923 list of unique elements in any iterable, but in stable order of
3917 3924 appearance. I needed this for the ultraTB fixes, and it's a handy
3918 3925 utility.
3919 3926
3920 3927 * IPython/ultraTB.py (VerboseTB.text): Fix proper reporting of
3921 3928 dotted names in Verbose exceptions. This had been broken since
3922 3929 the very start, now x.y will properly be printed in a Verbose
3923 3930 traceback, instead of x being shown and y appearing always as an
3924 3931 'undefined global'. Getting this to work was a bit tricky,
3925 3932 because by default python tokenizers are stateless. Saved by
3926 3933 python's ability to easily add a bit of state to an arbitrary
3927 3934 function (without needing to build a full-blown callable object).
3928 3935
3929 3936 Also big cleanup of this code, which had horrendous runtime
3930 3937 lookups of zillions of attributes for colorization. Moved all
3931 3938 this code into a few templates, which make it cleaner and quicker.
3932 3939
3933 3940 Printout quality was also improved for Verbose exceptions: one
3934 3941 variable per line, and memory addresses are printed (this can be
3935 3942 quite handy in nasty debugging situations, which is what Verbose
3936 3943 is for).
3937 3944
3938 3945 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): Do NOT execute files named in
3939 3946 the command line as scripts to be loaded by embedded instances.
3940 3947 Doing so has the potential for an infinite recursion if there are
3941 3948 exceptions thrown in the process. This fixes a strange crash
3942 3949 reported by Philippe MULLER <muller-AT-irit.fr>.
3943 3950
3944 3951 2004-12-09 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3945 3952
3946 3953 * IPython/Shell.py (MatplotlibShellBase.use): Change pylab support
3947 3954 to reflect new names in matplotlib, which now expose the
3948 3955 matlab-compatible interface via a pylab module instead of the
3949 3956 'matlab' name. The new code is backwards compatible, so users of
3950 3957 all matplotlib versions are OK. Patch by J. Hunter.
3951 3958
3952 3959 * IPython/OInspect.py (Inspector.pinfo): Add to object? printing
3953 3960 of __init__ docstrings for instances (class docstrings are already
3954 3961 automatically printed). Instances with customized docstrings
3955 3962 (indep. of the class) are also recognized and all 3 separate
3956 3963 docstrings are printed (instance, class, constructor). After some
3957 3964 comments/suggestions by J. Hunter.
3958 3965
3959 3966 2004-12-05 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3960 3967
3961 3968 * IPython/iplib.py (MagicCompleter.complete): Remove annoying
3962 3969 warnings when tab-completion fails and triggers an exception.
3963 3970
3964 3971 2004-12-03 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3965 3972
3966 3973 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_prun): Fix bug where an exception would
3967 3974 be triggered when using 'run -p'. An incorrect option flag was
3968 3975 being set ('d' instead of 'D').
3969 3976 (manpage): fix missing escaped \- sign.
3970 3977
3971 3978 2004-11-30 *** Released version 0.6.5
3972 3979
3973 3980 2004-11-30 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3974 3981
3975 3982 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_run): Fix bug in breakpoint
3976 3983 setting with -d option.
3977 3984
3978 3985 * setup.py (docfiles): Fix problem where the doc glob I was using
3979 3986 was COMPLETELY BROKEN. It was giving the right files by pure
3980 3987 accident, but failed once I tried to include ipython.el. Note:
3981 3988 glob() does NOT allow you to do exclusion on multiple endings!
3982 3989
3983 3990 2004-11-29 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
3984 3991
3985 3992 * IPython/usage.py (__doc__): cleaned up usage docstring, by using
3986 3993 the manpage as the source. Better formatting & consistency.
3987 3994
3988 3995 * IPython/Magic.py (magic_run): Added new -d option, to run
3989 3996 scripts under the control of the python pdb debugger. Note that
3990 3997 this required changing the %prun option -d to -D, to avoid a clash
3991 3998 (since %run must pass options to %prun, and getopt is too dumb to
3992 3999 handle options with string values with embedded spaces). Thanks
3993 4000 to a suggestion by Matthew Arnison <maffew-AT-cat.org.au>.
3994 4001 (magic_who_ls): added type matching to %who and %whos, so that one
3995 4002 can filter their output to only include variables of certain
3996 4003 types. Another suggestion by Matthew.
3997 4004 (magic_whos): Added memory summaries in kb and Mb for arrays.
3998 4005 (magic_who): Improve formatting (break lines every 9 vars).
3999 4006
4000 4007 2004-11-28 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4001 4008
4002 4009 * IPython/Logger.py (Logger.log): Fix bug in syncing the input
4003 4010 cache when empty lines were present.
4004 4011
4005 4012 2004-11-24 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4006 4013
4007 4014 * IPython/usage.py (__doc__): document the re-activated threading
4008 4015 options for WX and GTK.
4009 4016
4010 4017 2004-11-23 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4011 4018
4012 4019 * IPython/Shell.py (start): Added Prabhu's big patch to reactivate
4013 4020 the -wthread and -gthread options, along with a new -tk one to try
4014 4021 and coordinate Tk threading with wx/gtk. The tk support is very
4015 4022 platform dependent, since it seems to require Tcl and Tk to be
4016 4023 built with threads (Fedora1/2 appears NOT to have it, but in
4017 4024 Prabhu's Debian boxes it works OK). But even with some Tk
4018 4025 limitations, this is a great improvement.
4019 4026
4020 4027 * IPython/Prompts.py (prompt_specials_color): Added \t for time
4021 4028 info in user prompts. Patch by Prabhu.
4022 4029
4023 4030 2004-11-18 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4024 4031
4025 4032 * IPython/genutils.py (ask_yes_no): Add check for a max of 20
4026 4033 EOFErrors and bail, to avoid infinite loops if a non-terminating
4027 4034 file is fed into ipython. Patch submitted in issue 19 by user,
4028 4035 many thanks.
4029 4036
4030 4037 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.handle_auto): do NOT trigger
4031 4038 autoquote/parens in continuation prompts, which can cause lots of
4032 4039 problems. Closes roundup issue 20.
4033 4040
4034 4041 2004-11-17 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4035 4042
4036 4043 * debian/control (Build-Depends-Indep): Fix dpatch dependency,
4037 4044 reported as debian bug #280505. I'm not sure my local changelog
4038 4045 entry has the proper debian format (Jack?).
4039 4046

4042 4049 2004-11-08 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4043 4050
4044 4051 * IPython/iplib.py (init_readline): Fix exit message for Windows
4045 4052 when readline is active. Thanks to a report by Eric Jones
4046 4053 <eric-AT-enthought.com>.
4047 4054
4048 4055 2004-11-07 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4049 4056
4050 4057 * IPython/genutils.py (page): Add a trap for OSError exceptions,
4051 4058 sometimes seen by win2k/cygwin users.
4052 4059
4053 4060 2004-11-06 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4054 4061
4055 4062 * IPython/iplib.py (interact): Change the handling of %Exit from
4056 4063 trying to propagate a SystemExit to an internal ipython flag.
4057 4064 This is less elegant than using Python's exception mechanism, but
4058 4065 I can't get that to work reliably with threads, so under -pylab
4059 4066 %Exit was hanging IPython. Cross-thread exception handling is
4060 4067 really a bitch. Thaks to a bug report by Stephen Walton
4061 4068 <stephen.walton-AT-csun.edu>.

4063 4070 2004-11-04 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4064 4071
4065 4072 * IPython/iplib.py (raw_input_original): store a pointer to the
4066 4073 true raw_input to harden against code which can modify it
4067 4074 (wx.py.PyShell does this and would otherwise crash ipython).
4068 4075 Thanks to a bug report by Jim Flowers <james.flowers-AT-lgx.com>.
4069 4076
4070 4077 * IPython/Shell.py (MTInteractiveShell.runsource): Cleaner fix for
4071 4078 Ctrl-C problem, which does not mess up the input line.
4072 4079
4073 4080 2004-11-03 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4074 4081
4075 4082 * IPython/Release.py: Changed licensing to BSD, in all files.
4076 4083 (name): lowercase name for tarball/RPM release.
4077 4084
4078 4085 * IPython/OInspect.py (getdoc): wrap inspect.getdoc() safely for
4079 4086 use throughout ipython.
4080 4087
4081 4088 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic._ofind): Switch to using the new
4082 4089 OInspect.getdoc() function.
4083 4090
4084 4091 * IPython/Shell.py (sigint_handler): Hack to ignore the execution
4085 4092 of the line currently being canceled via Ctrl-C. It's extremely
4086 4093 ugly, but I don't know how to do it better (the problem is one of
4087 4094 handling cross-thread exceptions).
4088 4095
4089 4096 2004-10-28 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4090 4097
4091 4098 * IPython/Shell.py (signal_handler): add signal handlers to trap
4092 4099 SIGINT and SIGSEGV in threaded code properly. Thanks to a bug
4093 4100 report by Francesc Alted.
4094 4101
4095 4102 2004-10-21 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4096 4103
4097 4104 * IPython/Extensions/InterpreterExec.py (prefilter_shell): Fix @
4098 4105 to % for pysh syntax extensions.
4099 4106
4100 4107 2004-10-09 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4101 4108
4102 4109 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_whos): modify output of Numeric
4103 4110 arrays to print a more useful summary, without calling str(arr).
4104 4111 This avoids the problem of extremely lengthy computations which
4105 4112 occur if arr is large, and appear to the user as a system lockup
4106 4113 with 100% cpu activity. After a suggestion by Kristian Sandberg
4107 4114 <Kristian.Sandberg@colorado.edu>.
4108 4115 (Magic.__init__): fix bug in global magic escapes not being
4109 4116 correctly set.
4110 4117
4111 4118 2004-10-08 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4112 4119
4113 4120 * IPython/Magic.py (__license__): change to absolute imports of
4114 4121 ipython's own internal packages, to start adapting to the absolute
4115 4122 import requirement of PEP-328.
4116 4123
4117 4124 * IPython/genutils.py (__author__): Fix coding to utf-8 on all
4118 4125 files, and standardize author/license marks through the Release
4119 4126 module instead of having per/file stuff (except for files with
4120 4127 particular licenses, like the MIT/PSF-licensed codes).
4121 4128
4122 4129 * IPython/Debugger.py: remove dead code for python 2.1
4123 4130
4124 4131 2004-10-04 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4125 4132
4126 4133 * IPython/iplib.py (ipmagic): New function for accessing magics
4127 4134 via a normal python function call.
4128 4135
4129 4136 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_magic): Change the magic escape
4130 4137 from '@' to '%', to accomodate the new @decorator syntax of python
4131 4138 2.4.
4132 4139
4133 4140 2004-09-29 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4134 4141
4135 4142 * IPython/Shell.py (MatplotlibShellBase.use): Added a wrapper to
4136 4143 matplotlib.use to prevent running scripts which try to switch
4137 4144 interactive backends from within ipython. This will just crash
4138 4145 the python interpreter, so we can't allow it (but a detailed error
4139 4146 is given to the user).
4140 4147
4141 4148 2004-09-28 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4142 4149
4143 4150 * IPython/Shell.py (MatplotlibShellBase.mplot_exec):
4144 4151 matplotlib-related fixes so that using @run with non-matplotlib
4145 4152 scripts doesn't pop up spurious plot windows. This requires
4146 4153 matplotlib >= 0.63, where I had to make some changes as well.
4147 4154
4148 4155 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): update version requirement to
4149 4156 python 2.2.
4150 4157
4151 4158 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.mainloop): Add an optional
4152 4159 banner arg for embedded customization.
4153 4160
4154 4161 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.__init__): big cleanup to remove all
4155 4162 explicit uses of __IP as the IPython's instance name. Now things
4156 4163 are properly handled via the shell.name value. The actual code
4157 4164 is a bit ugly b/c I'm doing it via a global in Magic.py, but this
4158 4165 is much better than before. I'll clean things completely when the
4159 4166 magic stuff gets a real overhaul.
4160 4167
4161 4168 * ipython.1: small fixes, sent in by Jack Moffit. He also sent in
4162 4169 minor changes to debian dir.
4163 4170
4164 4171 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.__init__): Fix adding a
4165 4172 pointer to the shell itself in the interactive namespace even when
4166 4173 a user-supplied dict is provided. This is needed for embedding
4167 4174 purposes (found by tests with Michel Sanner).
4168 4175
4169 4176 2004-09-27 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4170 4177
4171 4178 * IPython/UserConfig/ipythonrc: remove []{} from
4172 4179 readline_remove_delims, so that things like [modname.<TAB> do
4173 4180 proper completion. This disables [].TAB, but that's a less common
4174 4181 case than module names in list comprehensions, for example.
4175 4182 Thanks to a report by Andrea Riciputi.
4176 4183
4177 4184 2004-09-09 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4178 4185
4179 4186 * IPython/Shell.py (IPShellGTK.mainloop): reorder to avoid
4180 4187 blocking problems in win32 and osx. Fix by John.
4181 4188
4182 4189 2004-09-08 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4183 4190
4184 4191 * IPython/Shell.py (IPShellWX.OnInit): Fix output redirection bug
4185 4192 for Win32 and OSX. Fix by John Hunter.
4186 4193
4187 4194 2004-08-30 *** Released version 0.6.3
4188 4195
4189 4196 2004-08-30 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4190 4197
4191 4198 * setup.py (isfile): Add manpages to list of dependent files to be
4192 4199 updated.
4193 4200
4194 4201 2004-08-27 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4195 4202
4196 4203 * IPython/Shell.py (start): I've disabled -wthread and -gthread
4197 4204 for now. They don't really work with standalone WX/GTK code
4198 4205 (though matplotlib IS working fine with both of those backends).
4199 4206 This will neeed much more testing. I disabled most things with
4200 4207 comments, so turning it back on later should be pretty easy.
4201 4208
4202 4209 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.__init__): Fix accidental
4203 4210 autocalling of expressions like r'foo', by modifying the line
4204 4211 split regexp. Closes
4205 4212 http://www.scipy.net/roundup/ipython/issue18, reported by Nicholas
4206 4213 Riley <ipythonbugs-AT-sabi.net>.
4207 4214 (InteractiveShell.mainloop): honor --nobanner with banner
4208 4215 extensions.
4209 4216
4210 4217 * IPython/Shell.py: Significant refactoring of all classes, so
4211 4218 that we can really support ALL matplotlib backends and threading
4212 4219 models (John spotted a bug with Tk which required this). Now we
4213 4220 should support single-threaded, WX-threads and GTK-threads, both
4214 4221 for generic code and for matplotlib.
4215 4222
4216 4223 * IPython/ipmaker.py (__call__): Changed -mpthread option to
4217 4224 -pylab, to simplify things for users. Will also remove the pylab
4218 4225 profile, since now all of matplotlib configuration is directly
4219 4226 handled here. This also reduces startup time.
4220 4227
4221 4228 * IPython/Shell.py (IPShellGTK.run): Fixed bug where mainloop() of
4222 4229 shell wasn't being correctly called. Also in IPShellWX.
4223 4230
4224 4231 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.__init__): Added option to
4225 4232 fine-tune banner.
4226 4233
4227 4234 * IPython/numutils.py (spike): Deprecate these spike functions,
4228 4235 delete (long deprecated) gnuplot_exec handler.
4229 4236
4230 4237 2004-08-26 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4231 4238
4232 4239 * ipython.1: Update for threading options, plus some others which
4233 4240 were missing.
4234 4241
4235 4242 * IPython/ipmaker.py (__call__): Added -wthread option for
4236 4243 wxpython thread handling. Make sure threading options are only
4237 4244 valid at the command line.
4238 4245
4239 4246 * scripts/ipython: moved shell selection into a factory function
4240 4247 in Shell.py, to keep the starter script to a minimum.
4241 4248
4242 4249 2004-08-25 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4243 4250
4244 4251 * IPython/Shell.py (IPShellWX.wxexit): fixes to WX threading, by
4245 4252 John. Along with some recent changes he made to matplotlib, the
4246 4253 next versions of both systems should work very well together.
4247 4254
4248 4255 2004-08-24 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4249 4256
4250 4257 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_prun): cleanup some dead code. I
4251 4258 tried to switch the profiling to using hotshot, but I'm getting
4252 4259 strange errors from prof.runctx() there. I may be misreading the
4253 4260 docs, but it looks weird. For now the profiling code will
4254 4261 continue to use the standard profiler.
4255 4262
4256 4263 2004-08-23 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4257 4264
4258 4265 * IPython/Shell.py (IPShellWX.__init__): Improvements to the WX
4259 4266 threaded shell, by John Hunter. It's not quite ready yet, but
4260 4267 close.
4261 4268
4262 4269 2004-08-22 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4263 4270
4264 4271 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.interact): tab cleanups, also
4265 4272 in Magic and ultraTB.
4266 4273
4267 4274 * ipython.1: document threading options in manpage.
4268 4275
4269 4276 * scripts/ipython: Changed name of -thread option to -gthread,
4270 4277 since this is GTK specific. I want to leave the door open for a
4271 4278 -wthread option for WX, which will most likely be necessary. This
4272 4279 change affects usage and ipmaker as well.
4273 4280
4274 4281 * IPython/Shell.py (matplotlib_shell): Add a factory function to
4275 4282 handle the matplotlib shell issues. Code by John Hunter
4276 4283 <jdhunter-AT-nitace.bsd.uchicago.edu>.
4277 4284 (IPShellMatplotlibWX.__init__): Rudimentary WX support. It's
4278 4285 broken (and disabled for end users) for now, but it puts the
4279 4286 infrastructure in place.
4280 4287
4281 4288 2004-08-21 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4282 4289
4283 4290 * ipythonrc-pylab: Add matplotlib support.
4284 4291
4285 4292 * matplotlib_config.py: new files for matplotlib support, part of
4286 4293 the pylab profile.
4287 4294
4288 4295 * IPython/usage.py (__doc__): documented the threading options.
4289 4296
4290 4297 2004-08-20 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4291 4298
4292 4299 * ipython: Modified the main calling routine to handle the -thread
4293 4300 and -mpthread options. This needs to be done as a top-level hack,
4294 4301 because it determines which class to instantiate for IPython
4295 4302 itself.
4296 4303
4297 4304 * IPython/Shell.py (MTInteractiveShell.__init__): New set of
4298 4305 classes to support multithreaded GTK operation without blocking,
4299 4306 and matplotlib with all backends. This is a lot of still very
4300 4307 experimental code, and threads are tricky. So it may still have a
4301 4308 few rough edges... This code owes a lot to
4302 4309 http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Python/Recipe/65109, by
4303 4310 Brian # McErlean and John Finlay, to Antoon Pardon for fixes, and
4304 4311 to John Hunter for all the matplotlib work.
4305 4312
4306 4313 * IPython/ipmaker.py (__call__): Added -thread and -mpthread
4307 4314 options for gtk thread and matplotlib support.
4308 4315
4309 4316 2004-08-16 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4310 4317
4311 4318 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.__init__): don't trigger
4312 4319 autocall for things like p*q,p/q,p+q,p-q, when p is callable. Bug
4313 4320 reported by Stephen Walton <stephen.walton-AT-csun.edu>.
4314 4321
4315 4322 2004-08-11 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4316 4323
4317 4324 * setup.py (isfile): Fix build so documentation gets updated for
4318 4325 rpms (it was only done for .tgz builds).
4319 4326
4320 4327 2004-08-10 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4321 4328
4322 4329 * genutils.py (Term): Fix misspell of stdin stream (sin->cin).
4323 4330
4324 4331 * iplib.py : Silence syntax error exceptions in tab-completion.
4325 4332
4326 4333 2004-08-05 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4327 4334
4328 4335 * IPython/Prompts.py (Prompt2.set_colors): Fix incorrectly set
4329 4336 'color off' mark for continuation prompts. This was causing long
4330 4337 continuation lines to mis-wrap.
4331 4338
4332 4339 2004-08-01 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4333 4340
4334 4341 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): Allow the shell class used
4335 4342 for building ipython to be a parameter. All this is necessary
4336 4343 right now to have a multithreaded version, but this insane
4337 4344 non-design will be cleaned up soon. For now, it's a hack that
4338 4345 works.
4339 4346
4340 4347 * IPython/Shell.py (IPShell.__init__): Stop using mutable default
4341 4348 args in various places. No bugs so far, but it's a dangerous
4342 4349 practice.
4343 4350
4344 4351 2004-07-31 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4345 4352
4346 4353 * IPython/iplib.py (complete): ignore SyntaxError exceptions to
4347 4354 fix completion of files with dots in their names under most
4348 4355 profiles (pysh was OK because the completion order is different).
4349 4356
4350 4357 2004-07-27 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4351 4358
4352 4359 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.__init__): build dict of
4353 4360 keywords manually, b/c the one in keyword.py was removed in python
4354 4361 2.4. Patch by Anakim Border <aborder-AT-users.sourceforge.net>.
4355 4362 This is NOT a bug under python 2.3 and earlier.
4356 4363
4357 4364 2004-07-26 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4358 4365
4359 4366 * IPython/ultraTB.py (VerboseTB.text): Add another
4360 4367 linecache.checkcache() call to try to prevent inspect.py from
4361 4368 crashing under python 2.3. I think this fixes
4362 4369 http://www.scipy.net/roundup/ipython/issue17.
4363 4370
4364 4371 2004-07-26 *** Released version 0.6.2
4365 4372
4366 4373 2004-07-26 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4367 4374
4368 4375 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_cd): Fix bug where 'cd -N' would
4369 4376 fail for any number.
4370 4377 (Magic.magic_bookmark): Fix bug where 'bookmark -l' would fail for
4371 4378 empty bookmarks.
4372 4379
4373 4380 2004-07-26 *** Released version 0.6.1
4374 4381
4375 4382 2004-07-26 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4376 4383
4377 4384 * ipython_win_post_install.py (run): Added pysh shortcut for Windows.
4378 4385
4379 4386 * IPython/iplib.py (protect_filename): Applied Ville's patch for
4380 4387 escaping '()[]{}' in filenames.
4381 4388
4382 4389 * IPython/Magic.py (shlex_split): Fix handling of '*' and '?' for
4383 4390 Python 2.2 users who lack a proper shlex.split.
4384 4391
4385 4392 2004-07-19 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4386 4393
4387 4394 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.init_readline): Add support
4388 4395 for reading readline's init file. I follow the normal chain:
4389 4396 $INPUTRC is honored, otherwise ~/.inputrc is used. Thanks to a
4390 4397 report by Mike Heeter. This closes
4391 4398 http://www.scipy.net/roundup/ipython/issue16.
4392 4399
4393 4400 2004-07-18 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4394 4401
4395 4402 * IPython/iplib.py (__init__): Add better handling of '\' under
4396 4403 Win32 for filenames. After a patch by Ville.
4397 4404
4398 4405 2004-07-17 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4399 4406
4400 4407 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell._prefilter): fix bug where
4401 4408 autocalling would be triggered for 'foo is bar' if foo is
4402 4409 callable. I also cleaned up the autocall detection code to use a
4403 4410 regexp, which is faster. Bug reported by Alexander Schmolck.
4404 4411
4405 4412 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_pinfo): Fix bug where strings with
4406 4413 '?' in them would confuse the help system. Reported by Alex
4407 4414 Schmolck.
4408 4415
4409 4416 2004-07-16 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4410 4417
4411 4418 * IPython/GnuplotInteractive.py (__all__): added plot2.
4412 4419
4413 4420 * IPython/Gnuplot2.py (Gnuplot.plot2): added new function for
4414 4421 plotting dictionaries, lists or tuples of 1d arrays.
4415 4422
4416 4423 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_hist): small clenaups and
4417 4424 optimizations.
4418 4425
4419 4426 * IPython/iplib.py:Remove old Changelog info for cleanup. This is
4420 4427 the information which was there from Janko's original IPP code:
4421 4428
4422 4429 03.05.99 20:53 porto.ifm.uni-kiel.de
4423 4430 --Started changelog.
4424 4431 --make clear do what it say it does
4425 4432 --added pretty output of lines from inputcache
4426 4433 --Made Logger a mixin class, simplifies handling of switches
4427 4434 --Added own completer class. .string<TAB> expands to last history
4428 4435 line which starts with string. The new expansion is also present
4429 4436 with Ctrl-r from the readline library. But this shows, who this
4430 4437 can be done for other cases.
4431 4438 --Added convention that all shell functions should accept a
4432 4439 parameter_string This opens the door for different behaviour for
4433 4440 each function. @cd is a good example of this.
4434 4441
4435 4442 04.05.99 12:12 porto.ifm.uni-kiel.de
4436 4443 --added logfile rotation
4437 4444 --added new mainloop method which freezes first the namespace
4438 4445
4439 4446 07.05.99 21:24 porto.ifm.uni-kiel.de
4440 4447 --added the docreader classes. Now there is a help system.
4441 4448 -This is only a first try. Currently it's not easy to put new
4442 4449 stuff in the indices. But this is the way to go. Info would be
4443 4450 better, but HTML is every where and not everybody has an info
4444 4451 system installed and it's not so easy to change html-docs to info.
4445 4452 --added global logfile option
4446 4453 --there is now a hook for object inspection method pinfo needs to
4447 4454 be provided for this. Can be reached by two '??'.
4448 4455
4449 4456 08.05.99 20:51 porto.ifm.uni-kiel.de
4450 4457 --added a README
4451 4458 --bug in rc file. Something has changed so functions in the rc
4452 4459 file need to reference the shell and not self. Not clear if it's a
4453 4460 bug or feature.
4454 4461 --changed rc file for new behavior
4455 4462
4456 4463 2004-07-15 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4457 4464
4458 4465 * IPython/Logger.py (Logger.log): fixed recent bug where the input
4459 4466 cache was falling out of sync in bizarre manners when multi-line
4460 4467 input was present. Minor optimizations and cleanup.
4461 4468
4462 4469 (Logger): Remove old Changelog info for cleanup. This is the
4463 4470 information which was there from Janko's original code:
4464 4471
4465 4472 Changes to Logger: - made the default log filename a parameter
4466 4473
4467 4474 - put a check for lines beginning with !@? in log(). Needed
4468 4475 (even if the handlers properly log their lines) for mid-session
4469 4476 logging activation to work properly. Without this, lines logged
4470 4477 in mid session, which get read from the cache, would end up
4471 4478 'bare' (with !@? in the open) in the log. Now they are caught
4472 4479 and prepended with a #.
4473 4480
4474 4481 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.init_readline): added check
4475 4482 in case MagicCompleter fails to be defined, so we don't crash.
4476 4483
4477 4484 2004-07-13 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4478 4485
4479 4486 * IPython/Gnuplot2.py (Gnuplot.hardcopy): add automatic generation
4480 4487 of EPS if the requested filename ends in '.eps'.
4481 4488
4482 4489 2004-07-04 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4483 4490
4484 4491 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.handle_shell_escape): Fix
4485 4492 escaping of quotes when calling the shell.
4486 4493
4487 4494 2004-07-02 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4488 4495
4489 4496 * IPython/Prompts.py (CachedOutput.update): Fix problem with
4490 4497 gettext not working because we were clobbering '_'. Fixes
4491 4498 http://www.scipy.net/roundup/ipython/issue6.
4492 4499
4493 4500 2004-07-01 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4494 4501
4495 4502 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_cd): integrated bookmark handling
4496 4503 into @cd. Patch by Ville.
4497 4504
4498 4505 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.post_config_initialization):
4499 4506 new function to store things after ipmaker runs. Patch by Ville.
4500 4507 Eventually this will go away once ipmaker is removed and the class
4501 4508 gets cleaned up, but for now it's ok. Key functionality here is
4502 4509 the addition of the persistent storage mechanism, a dict for
4503 4510 keeping data across sessions (for now just bookmarks, but more can
4504 4511 be implemented later).
4505 4512
4506 4513 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_bookmark): New bookmark system,
4507 4514 persistent across sections. Patch by Ville, I modified it
4508 4515 soemwhat to allow bookmarking arbitrary dirs other than CWD. Also
4509 4516 added a '-l' option to list all bookmarks.
4510 4517
4511 4518 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.atexit_operations): new
4512 4519 center for cleanup. Registered with atexit.register(). I moved
4513 4520 here the old exit_cleanup(). After a patch by Ville.
4514 4521
4515 4522 * IPython/Magic.py (get_py_filename): added '~' to the accepted
4516 4523 characters in the hacked shlex_split for python 2.2.
4517 4524
4518 4525 * IPython/iplib.py (file_matches): more fixes to filenames with
4519 4526 whitespace in them. It's not perfect, but limitations in python's
4520 4527 readline make it impossible to go further.
4521 4528
4522 4529 2004-06-29 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4523 4530
4524 4531 * IPython/iplib.py (file_matches): escape whitespace correctly in
4525 4532 filename completions. Bug reported by Ville.
4526 4533
4527 4534 2004-06-28 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4528 4535
4529 4536 * IPython/ipmaker.py (__call__): Added per-profile histories. Now
4530 4537 the history file will be called 'history-PROFNAME' (or just
4531 4538 'history' if no profile is loaded). I was getting annoyed at
4532 4539 getting my Numerical work history clobbered by pysh sessions.
4533 4540
4534 4541 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.__init__): Internal
4535 4542 getoutputerror() function so that we can honor the system_verbose
4536 4543 flag for _all_ system calls. I also added escaping of #
4537 4544 characters here to avoid confusing Itpl.
4538 4545
4539 4546 * IPython/Magic.py (shlex_split): removed call to shell in
4540 4547 parse_options and replaced it with shlex.split(). The annoying
4541 4548 part was that in Python 2.2, shlex.split() doesn't exist, so I had
4542 4549 to backport it from 2.3, with several frail hacks (the shlex
4543 4550 module is rather limited in 2.2). Thanks to a suggestion by Ville
4544 4551 Vainio <vivainio@kolumbus.fi>. For Python 2.3 there should be no
4545 4552 problem.
4546 4553
4547 4554 (Magic.magic_system_verbose): new toggle to print the actual
4548 4555 system calls made by ipython. Mainly for debugging purposes.
4549 4556
4550 4557 * IPython/GnuplotRuntime.py (gnu_out): fix bug for cygwin, which
4551 4558 doesn't support persistence. Reported (and fix suggested) by
4552 4559 Travis Caldwell <travis_caldwell2000@yahoo.com>.
4553 4560
4554 4561 2004-06-26 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4555 4562
4556 4563 * IPython/Logger.py (Logger.log): fix to handle correctly empty
4557 4564 continue prompts.
4558 4565
4559 4566 * IPython/Extensions/InterpreterExec.py (pysh): moved the pysh()
4560 4567 function (basically a big docstring) and a few more things here to
4561 4568 speedup startup. pysh.py is now very lightweight. We want because
4562 4569 it gets execfile'd, while InterpreterExec gets imported, so
4563 4570 byte-compilation saves time.
4564 4571
4565 4572 2004-06-25 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4566 4573
4567 4574 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_cd): Fixed to restore usage of 'cd
4568 4575 -NUM', which was recently broken.
4569 4576
4570 4577 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.handle_shell_escape): allow !
4571 4578 in multi-line input (but not !!, which doesn't make sense there).
4572 4579
4573 4580 * IPython/UserConfig/ipythonrc: made autoindent on by default.
4574 4581 It's just too useful, and people can turn it off in the less
4575 4582 common cases where it's a problem.
4576 4583
4577 4584 2004-06-24 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4578 4585
4579 4586 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell._prefilter): big change -
4580 4587 special syntaxes (like alias calling) is now allied in multi-line
4581 4588 input. This is still _very_ experimental, but it's necessary for
4582 4589 efficient shell usage combining python looping syntax with system
4583 4590 calls. For now it's restricted to aliases, I don't think it
4584 4591 really even makes sense to have this for magics.
4585 4592
4586 4593 2004-06-23 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4587 4594
4588 4595 * IPython/Extensions/InterpreterExec.py (prefilter_shell): Added
4589 4596 $var=cmd <=> @sc var=cmd and $$var=cmd <=> @sc -l var=cmd.
4590 4597
4591 4598 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_rehashx): modified to handle
4592 4599 extensions under Windows (after code sent by Gary Bishop). The
4593 4600 extensions considered 'executable' are stored in IPython's rc
4594 4601 structure as win_exec_ext.
4595 4602
4596 4603 * IPython/genutils.py (shell): new function, like system() but
4597 4604 without return value. Very useful for interactive shell work.
4598 4605
4599 4606 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_unalias): New @unalias function to
4600 4607 delete aliases.
4601 4608
4602 4609 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.alias_table_update): make
4603 4610 sure that the alias table doesn't contain python keywords.
4604 4611
4605 4612 2004-06-21 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4606 4613
4607 4614 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_rehash): Fix crash when
4608 4615 non-existent items are found in $PATH. Reported by Thorsten.
4609 4616
4610 4617 2004-06-20 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4611 4618
4612 4619 * IPython/iplib.py (complete): modified the completer so that the
4613 4620 order of priorities can be easily changed at runtime.
4614 4621
4615 4622 * IPython/Extensions/InterpreterExec.py (prefilter_shell):
4616 4623 Modified to auto-execute all lines beginning with '~', '/' or '.'.
4617 4624
4618 4625 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_sx): modified @sc and @sx to
4619 4626 expand Python variables prepended with $ in all system calls. The
4620 4627 same was done to InteractiveShell.handle_shell_escape. Now all
4621 4628 system access mechanisms (!, !!, @sc, @sx and aliases) allow the
4622 4629 expansion of python variables and expressions according to the
4623 4630 syntax of PEP-215 - http://www.python.org/peps/pep-0215.html.
4624 4631
4625 4632 Though PEP-215 has been rejected, a similar (but simpler) one
4626 4633 seems like it will go into Python 2.4, PEP-292 -
4627 4634 http://www.python.org/peps/pep-0292.html.
4628 4635
4629 4636 I'll keep the full syntax of PEP-215, since IPython has since the
4630 4637 start used Ka-Ping Yee's reference implementation discussed there
4631 4638 (Itpl), and I actually like the powerful semantics it offers.
4632 4639
4633 4640 In order to access normal shell variables, the $ has to be escaped
4634 4641 via an extra $. For example:
4635 4642
4636 4643 In [7]: PATH='a python variable'
4637 4644
4638 4645 In [8]: !echo $PATH
4639 4646 a python variable
4640 4647
4641 4648 In [9]: !echo $$PATH
4642 4649 /usr/local/lf9560/bin:/usr/local/intel/compiler70/ia32/bin:...
4643 4650
4644 4651 (Magic.parse_options): escape $ so the shell doesn't evaluate
4645 4652 things prematurely.
4646 4653
4647 4654 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.call_alias): added the
4648 4655 ability for aliases to expand python variables via $.
4649 4656
4650 4657 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_rehash): based on the new alias
4651 4658 system, now there's a @rehash/@rehashx pair of magics. These work
4652 4659 like the csh rehash command, and can be invoked at any time. They
4653 4660 build a table of aliases to everything in the user's $PATH
4654 4661 (@rehash uses everything, @rehashx is slower but only adds
4655 4662 executable files). With this, the pysh.py-based shell profile can
4656 4663 now simply call rehash upon startup, and full access to all
4657 4664 programs in the user's path is obtained.
4658 4665
4659 4666 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.call_alias): The new alias
4660 4667 functionality is now fully in place. I removed the old dynamic
4661 4668 code generation based approach, in favor of a much lighter one
4662 4669 based on a simple dict. The advantage is that this allows me to
4663 4670 now have thousands of aliases with negligible cost (unthinkable
4664 4671 with the old system).
4665 4672
4666 4673 2004-06-19 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4667 4674
4668 4675 * IPython/iplib.py (__init__): extended MagicCompleter class to
4669 4676 also complete (last in priority) on user aliases.
4670 4677
4671 4678 * IPython/Itpl.py (Itpl.__str__): fixed order of globals/locals in
4672 4679 call to eval.
4673 4680 (ItplNS.__init__): Added a new class which functions like Itpl,
4674 4681 but allows configuring the namespace for the evaluation to occur
4675 4682 in.
4676 4683
4677 4684 2004-06-18 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4678 4685
4679 4686 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.runcode): modify to print a
4680 4687 better message when 'exit' or 'quit' are typed (a common newbie
4681 4688 confusion).
4682 4689
4683 4690 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_colors): Added the runtime color
4684 4691 check for Windows users.
4685 4692
4686 4693 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.user_setup): removed
4687 4694 disabling of colors for Windows. I'll test at runtime and issue a
4688 4695 warning if Gary's readline isn't found, as to nudge users to
4689 4696 download it.
4690 4697
4691 4698 2004-06-16 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4692 4699
4693 4700 * IPython/genutils.py (Stream.__init__): changed to print errors
4694 4701 to sys.stderr. I had a circular dependency here. Now it's
4695 4702 possible to run ipython as IDLE's shell (consider this pre-alpha,
4696 4703 since true stdout things end up in the starting terminal instead
4697 4704 of IDLE's out).
4698 4705
4699 4706 * IPython/Prompts.py (Prompt2.set_colors): prevent crashes for
4700 4707 users who haven't # updated their prompt_in2 definitions. Remove
4701 4708 eventually.
4702 4709 (multiple_replace): added credit to original ASPN recipe.
4703 4710
4704 4711 2004-06-15 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4705 4712
4706 4713 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.__init__): add 'cp' to the
4707 4714 list of auto-defined aliases.
4708 4715
4709 4716 2004-06-13 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4710 4717
4711 4718 * setup.py (scriptfiles): Don't trigger win_post_install unless an
4712 4719 install was really requested (so setup.py can be used for other
4713 4720 things under Windows).
4714 4721
4715 4722 2004-06-10 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4716 4723
4717 4724 * IPython/Logger.py (Logger.create_log): Manually remove any old
4718 4725 backup, since os.remove may fail under Windows. Fixes bug
4719 4726 reported by Thorsten.
4720 4727
4721 4728 2004-06-09 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4722 4729
4723 4730 * examples/example-embed.py: fixed all references to %n (replaced
4724 4731 with \\# for ps1/out prompts and with \\D for ps2 prompts). Done
4725 4732 for all examples and the manual as well.
4726 4733
4727 4734 2004-06-08 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4728 4735
4729 4736 * IPython/Prompts.py (Prompt2.set_p_str): fixed all prompt
4730 4737 alignment and color management. All 3 prompt subsystems now
4731 4738 inherit from BasePrompt.
4732 4739
4733 4740 * tools/release: updates for windows installer build and tag rpms
4734 4741 with python version (since paths are fixed).
4735 4742
4736 4743 * IPython/UserConfig/ipythonrc: modified to use \# instead of %n,
4737 4744 which will become eventually obsolete. Also fixed the default
4738 4745 prompt_in2 to use \D, so at least new users start with the correct
4739 4746 defaults.
4740 4747 WARNING: Users with existing ipythonrc files will need to apply
4741 4748 this fix manually!
4742 4749
4743 4750 * setup.py: make windows installer (.exe). This is finally the
4744 4751 integration of an old patch by Cory Dodt <dodt-AT-fcoe.k12.ca.us>,
4745 4752 which I hadn't included because it required Python 2.3 (or recent
4746 4753 distutils).
4747 4754
4748 4755 * IPython/usage.py (__doc__): update docs (and manpage) to reflect
4749 4756 usage of new '\D' escape.
4750 4757
4751 4758 * IPython/Prompts.py (ROOT_SYMBOL): Small fix for Windows (which
4752 4759 lacks os.getuid())
4753 4760 (CachedOutput.set_colors): Added the ability to turn coloring
4754 4761 on/off with @colors even for manually defined prompt colors. It
4755 4762 uses a nasty global, but it works safely and via the generic color
4756 4763 handling mechanism.
4757 4764 (Prompt2.__init__): Introduced new escape '\D' for continuation
4758 4765 prompts. It represents the counter ('\#') as dots.
4759 4766 *** NOTE *** THIS IS A BACKWARDS-INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE. Users will
4760 4767 need to update their ipythonrc files and replace '%n' with '\D' in
4761 4768 their prompt_in2 settings everywhere. Sorry, but there's
4762 4769 otherwise no clean way to get all prompts to properly align. The
4763 4770 ipythonrc shipped with IPython has been updated.
4764 4771
4765 4772 2004-06-07 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4766 4773
4767 4774 * setup.py (isfile): Pass local_icons option to latex2html, so the
4768 4775 resulting HTML file is self-contained. Thanks to
4769 4776 dryice-AT-liu.com.cn for the tip.
4770 4777
4771 4778 * pysh.py: I created a new profile 'shell', which implements a
4772 4779 _rudimentary_ IPython-based shell. This is in NO WAY a realy
4773 4780 system shell, nor will it become one anytime soon. It's mainly
4774 4781 meant to illustrate the use of the new flexible bash-like prompts.
4775 4782 I guess it could be used by hardy souls for true shell management,
4776 4783 but it's no tcsh/bash... pysh.py is loaded by the 'shell'
4777 4784 profile. This uses the InterpreterExec extension provided by
4778 4785 W.J. van der Laan <gnufnork-AT-hetdigitalegat.nl>
4779 4786
4780 4787 * IPython/Prompts.py (PromptOut.__str__): now it will correctly
4781 4788 auto-align itself with the length of the previous input prompt
4782 4789 (taking into account the invisible color escapes).
4783 4790 (CachedOutput.__init__): Large restructuring of this class. Now
4784 4791 all three prompts (primary1, primary2, output) are proper objects,
4785 4792 managed by the 'parent' CachedOutput class. The code is still a
4786 4793 bit hackish (all prompts share state via a pointer to the cache),
4787 4794 but it's overall far cleaner than before.
4788 4795
4789 4796 * IPython/genutils.py (getoutputerror): modified to add verbose,
4790 4797 debug and header options. This makes the interface of all getout*
4791 4798 functions uniform.
4792 4799 (SystemExec.getoutputerror): added getoutputerror to SystemExec.
4793 4800
4794 4801 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.default_option): added a function to
4795 4802 allow registering default options for any magic command. This
4796 4803 makes it easy to have profiles which customize the magics globally
4797 4804 for a certain use. The values set through this function are
4798 4805 picked up by the parse_options() method, which all magics should
4799 4806 use to parse their options.
4800 4807
4801 4808 * IPython/genutils.py (warn): modified the warnings framework to
4802 4809 use the Term I/O class. I'm trying to slowly unify all of
4803 4810 IPython's I/O operations to pass through Term.
4804 4811
4805 4812 * IPython/Prompts.py (Prompt2._str_other): Added functionality in
4806 4813 the secondary prompt to correctly match the length of the primary
4807 4814 one for any prompt. Now multi-line code will properly line up
4808 4815 even for path dependent prompts, such as the new ones available
4809 4816 via the prompt_specials.
4810 4817
4811 4818 2004-06-06 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4812 4819
4813 4820 * IPython/Prompts.py (prompt_specials): Added the ability to have
4814 4821 bash-like special sequences in the prompts, which get
4815 4822 automatically expanded. Things like hostname, current working
4816 4823 directory and username are implemented already, but it's easy to
4817 4824 add more in the future. Thanks to a patch by W.J. van der Laan
4818 4825 <gnufnork-AT-hetdigitalegat.nl>
4819 4826 (prompt_specials): Added color support for prompt strings, so
4820 4827 users can define arbitrary color setups for their prompts.
4821 4828
4822 4829 2004-06-05 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4823 4830
4824 4831 * IPython/genutils.py (Term.reopen_all): Added Windows-specific
4825 4832 code to load Gary Bishop's readline and configure it
4826 4833 automatically. Thanks to Gary for help on this.
4827 4834
4828 4835 2004-06-01 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4829 4836
4830 4837 * IPython/Logger.py (Logger.create_log): fix bug for logging
4831 4838 with no filename (previous fix was incomplete).
4832 4839
4833 4840 2004-05-25 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4834 4841
4835 4842 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.parse_options): fix bug where naked
4836 4843 parens would get passed to the shell.
4837 4844
4838 4845 2004-05-20 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4839 4846
4840 4847 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_prun): changed default profile
4841 4848 sort order to 'time' (the more common profiling need).
4842 4849
4843 4850 * IPython/OInspect.py (Inspector.pinfo): flush the inspect cache
4844 4851 so that source code shown is guaranteed in sync with the file on
4845 4852 disk (also changed in psource). Similar fix to the one for
4846 4853 ultraTB on 2004-05-06. Thanks to a bug report by Yann Le Du
4847 4854 <yann.ledu-AT-noos.fr>.
4848 4855
4849 4856 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.parse_options): Fixed bug where commands
4850 4857 with a single option would not be correctly parsed. Closes
4851 4858 http://www.scipy.net/roundup/ipython/issue14. This bug had been
4852 4859 introduced in 0.6.0 (on 2004-05-06).
4853 4860
4854 4861 2004-05-13 *** Released version 0.6.0
4855 4862
4856 4863 2004-05-13 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4857 4864
4858 4865 * debian/: Added debian/ directory to CVS, so that debian support
4859 4866 is publicly accessible. The debian package is maintained by Jack
4860 4867 Moffit <jack-AT-xiph.org>.
4861 4868
4862 4869 * Documentation: included the notes about an ipython-based system
4863 4870 shell (the hypothetical 'pysh') into the new_design.pdf document,
4864 4871 so that these ideas get distributed to users along with the
4865 4872 official documentation.
4866 4873
4867 4874 2004-05-10 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4868 4875
4869 4876 * IPython/Logger.py (Logger.create_log): fix recently introduced
4870 4877 bug (misindented line) where logstart would fail when not given an
4871 4878 explicit filename.
4872 4879
4873 4880 2004-05-09 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4874 4881
4875 4882 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.parse_options): skip system call when
4876 4883 there are no options to look for. Faster, cleaner for the common
4877 4884 case.
4878 4885
4879 4886 * Documentation: many updates to the manual: describing Windows
4880 4887 support better, Gnuplot updates, credits, misc small stuff. Also
4881 4888 updated the new_design doc a bit.
4882 4889
4883 4890 2004-05-06 *** Released version 0.6.0.rc1
4884 4891
4885 4892 2004-05-06 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4886 4893
4887 4894 * IPython/ultraTB.py (ListTB.text): modified a ton of string +=
4888 4895 operations to use the vastly more efficient list/''.join() method.
4889 4896 (FormattedTB.text): Fix
4890 4897 http://www.scipy.net/roundup/ipython/issue12 - exception source
4891 4898 extract not updated after reload. Thanks to Mike Salib
4892 4899 <msalib-AT-mit.edu> for pinning the source of the problem.
4893 4900 Fortunately, the solution works inside ipython and doesn't require
4894 4901 any changes to python proper.
4895 4902
4896 4903 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.parse_options): Improved to process the
4897 4904 argument list as a true shell would (by actually using the
4898 4905 underlying system shell). This way, all @magics automatically get
4899 4906 shell expansion for variables. Thanks to a comment by Alex
4900 4907 Schmolck.
4901 4908
4902 4909 2004-04-04 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4903 4910
4904 4911 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.interact): Added a special
4905 4912 trap for a debugger quit exception, which is basically impossible
4906 4913 to handle by normal mechanisms, given what pdb does to the stack.
4907 4914 This fixes a crash reported by <fgibbons-AT-llama.med.harvard.edu>.
4908 4915
4909 4916 2004-04-03 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4910 4917
4911 4918 * IPython/genutils.py (Term): Standardized the names of the Term
4912 4919 class streams to cin/cout/cerr, following C++ naming conventions
4913 4920 (I can't use in/out/err because 'in' is not a valid attribute
4914 4921 name).
4915 4922
4916 4923 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.interact): don't increment
4917 4924 the prompt if there's no user input. By Daniel 'Dang' Griffith
4918 4925 <pythondev-dang-AT-lazytwinacres.net>, after a suggestion from
4919 4926 Francois Pinard.
4920 4927
4921 4928 2004-04-02 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4922 4929
4923 4930 * IPython/genutils.py (Stream.__init__): Modified to survive at
4924 4931 least importing in contexts where stdin/out/err aren't true file
4925 4932 objects, such as PyCrust (they lack fileno() and mode). However,
4926 4933 the recovery facilities which rely on these things existing will
4927 4934 not work.
4928 4935
4929 4936 2004-04-01 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4930 4937
4931 4938 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_sx): modified (as well as @sc) to
4932 4939 use the new getoutputerror() function, so it properly
4933 4940 distinguishes stdout/err.
4934 4941
4935 4942 * IPython/genutils.py (getoutputerror): added a function to
4936 4943 capture separately the standard output and error of a command.
4937 4944 After a comment from dang on the mailing lists. This code is
4938 4945 basically a modified version of commands.getstatusoutput(), from
4939 4946 the standard library.
4940 4947
4941 4948 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.handle_shell_escape): added
4942 4949 '!!' as a special syntax (shorthand) to access @sx.
4943 4950
4944 4951 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_sx): new magic, to execute a shell
4945 4952 command and return its output as a list split on '\n'.
4946 4953
4947 4954 2004-03-31 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4948 4955
4949 4956 * IPython/FakeModule.py (FakeModule.__init__): added __nonzero__
4950 4957 method to dictionaries used as FakeModule instances if they lack
4951 4958 it. At least pydoc in python2.3 breaks for runtime-defined
4952 4959 functions without this hack. At some point I need to _really_
4953 4960 understand what FakeModule is doing, because it's a gross hack.
4954 4961 But it solves Arnd's problem for now...
4955 4962
4956 4963 2004-02-27 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4957 4964
4958 4965 * IPython/Logger.py (Logger.create_log): Fix bug where 'rotate'
4959 4966 mode would behave erratically. Also increased the number of
4960 4967 possible logs in rotate mod to 999. Thanks to Rod Holland
4961 4968 <rhh@StructureLABS.com> for the report and fixes.
4962 4969
4963 4970 2004-02-26 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4964 4971
4965 4972 * IPython/genutils.py (page): Check that the curses module really
4966 4973 has the initscr attribute before trying to use it. For some
4967 4974 reason, the Solaris curses module is missing this. I think this
4968 4975 should be considered a Solaris python bug, but I'm not sure.
4969 4976
4970 4977 2004-01-17 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4971 4978
4972 4979 * IPython/genutils.py (Stream.__init__): Changes to try to make
4973 4980 ipython robust against stdin/out/err being closed by the user.
4974 4981 This is 'user error' (and blocks a normal python session, at least
4975 4982 the stdout case). However, Ipython should be able to survive such
4976 4983 instances of abuse as gracefully as possible. To simplify the
4977 4984 coding and maintain compatibility with Gary Bishop's Term
4978 4985 contributions, I've made use of classmethods for this. I think
4979 4986 this introduces a dependency on python 2.2.
4980 4987
4981 4988 2004-01-13 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4982 4989
4983 4990 * IPython/numutils.py (exp_safe): simplified the code a bit and
4984 4991 removed the need for importing the kinds module altogether.
4985 4992
4986 4993 2004-01-06 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4987 4994
4988 4995 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_sc): Made the shell capture system
4989 4996 a magic function instead, after some community feedback. No
4990 4997 special syntax will exist for it, but its name is deliberately
4991 4998 very short.
4992 4999
4993 5000 2003-12-20 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
4994 5001
4995 5002 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.handle_shell_assign): Added
4996 5003 new functionality, to automagically assign the result of a shell
4997 5004 command to a variable. I'll solicit some community feedback on
4998 5005 this before making it permanent.
4999 5006
5000 5007 * IPython/OInspect.py (Inspector.pinfo): Fix crash when info was
5001 5008 requested about callables for which inspect couldn't obtain a
5002 5009 proper argspec. Thanks to a crash report sent by Etienne
5003 5010 Posthumus <etienne-AT-apple01.cs.vu.nl>.
5004 5011
5005 5012 2003-12-09 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5006 5013
5007 5014 * IPython/genutils.py (page): patch for the pager to work across
5008 5015 various versions of Windows. By Gary Bishop.
5009 5016
5010 5017 2003-12-04 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5011 5018
5012 5019 * IPython/Gnuplot2.py (PlotItems): Fixes for working with
5013 5020 Gnuplot.py version 1.7, whose internal names changed quite a bit.
5014 5021 While I tested this and it looks ok, there may still be corner
5015 5022 cases I've missed.
5016 5023
5017 5024 2003-12-01 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5018 5025
5019 5026 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell._prefilter): Fixed a bug
5020 5027 where a line like 'p,q=1,2' would fail because the automagic
5021 5028 system would be triggered for @p.
5022 5029
5023 5030 * IPython/DPyGetOpt.py (DPyGetOpt.processArguments): Tab-related
5024 5031 cleanups, code unmodified.
5025 5032
5026 5033 * IPython/genutils.py (Term): added a class for IPython to handle
5027 5034 output. In most cases it will just be a proxy for stdout/err, but
5028 5035 having this allows modifications to be made for some platforms,
5029 5036 such as handling color escapes under Windows. All of this code
5030 5037 was contributed by Gary Bishop, with minor modifications by me.
5031 5038 The actual changes affect many files.
5032 5039
5033 5040 2003-11-30 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5034 5041
5035 5042 * IPython/iplib.py (file_matches): new completion code, courtesy
5036 5043 of Jeff Collins. This enables filename completion again under
5037 5044 python 2.3, which disabled it at the C level.
5038 5045
5039 5046 2003-11-11 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5040 5047
5041 5048 * IPython/numutils.py (amap): Added amap() fn. Simple shorthand
5042 5049 for Numeric.array(map(...)), but often convenient.
5043 5050
5044 5051 2003-11-05 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5045 5052
5046 5053 * IPython/numutils.py (frange): Changed a call from int() to
5047 5054 int(round()) to prevent a problem reported with arange() in the
5048 5055 numpy list.
5049 5056
5050 5057 2003-10-06 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5051 5058
5052 5059 * IPython/DPyGetOpt.py (DPyGetOpt.processArguments): changed to
5053 5060 prevent crashes if sys lacks an argv attribute (it happens with
5054 5061 embedded interpreters which build a bare-bones sys module).
5055 5062 Thanks to a report/bugfix by Adam Hupp <hupp-AT-cs.wisc.edu>.
5056 5063
5057 5064 2003-09-24 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5058 5065
5059 5066 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic._ofind): blanket except around getattr()
5060 5067 to protect against poorly written user objects where __getattr__
5061 5068 raises exceptions other than AttributeError. Thanks to a bug
5062 5069 report by Oliver Sander <osander-AT-gmx.de>.
5063 5070
5064 5071 * IPython/FakeModule.py (FakeModule.__repr__): this method was
5065 5072 missing. Thanks to bug report by Ralf Schmitt <ralf-AT-brainbot.com>.
5066 5073
5067 5074 2003-09-09 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5068 5075
5069 5076 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell._prefilter): fix bug where
5070 5077 unpacking a list whith a callable as first element would
5071 5078 mistakenly trigger autocalling. Thanks to a bug report by Jeffery
5072 5079 Collins.
5073 5080
5074 5081 2003-08-25 *** Released version 0.5.0
5075 5082
5076 5083 2003-08-22 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5077 5084
5078 5085 * IPython/ultraTB.py (VerboseTB.linereader): Improved handling of
5079 5086 improperly defined user exceptions. Thanks to feedback from Mark
5080 5087 Russell <mrussell-AT-verio.net>.
5081 5088
5082 5089 2003-08-20 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5083 5090
5084 5091 * IPython/OInspect.py (Inspector.pinfo): changed String Form
5085 5092 printing so that it would print multi-line string forms starting
5086 5093 with a new line. This way the formatting is better respected for
5087 5094 objects which work hard to make nice string forms.
5088 5095
5089 5096 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.handle_auto): Fix bug where
5090 5097 autocall would overtake data access for objects with both
5091 5098 __getitem__ and __call__.
5092 5099
5093 5100 2003-08-19 *** Released version 0.5.0-rc1
5094 5101
5095 5102 2003-08-19 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5096 5103
5097 5104 * IPython/deep_reload.py (load_tail): single tiny change here
5098 5105 seems to fix the long-standing bug of dreload() failing to work
5099 5106 for dotted names. But this module is pretty tricky, so I may have
5100 5107 missed some subtlety. Needs more testing!.
5101 5108
5102 5109 * IPython/ultraTB.py (VerboseTB.linereader): harden against user
5103 5110 exceptions which have badly implemented __str__ methods.
5104 5111 (VerboseTB.text): harden against inspect.getinnerframes crashing,
5105 5112 which I've been getting reports about from Python 2.3 users. I
5106 5113 wish I had a simple test case to reproduce the problem, so I could
5107 5114 either write a cleaner workaround or file a bug report if
5108 5115 necessary.
5109 5116
5110 5117 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_edit): fixed bug where after
5111 5118 making a class 'foo', file 'foo.py' couldn't be edited. Thanks to
5112 5119 a bug report by Tjabo Kloppenburg.
5113 5120
5114 5121 * IPython/ultraTB.py (VerboseTB.debugger): hardened against pdb
5115 5122 crashes. Wrapped the pdb call in a blanket try/except, since pdb
5116 5123 seems rather unstable. Thanks to a bug report by Tjabo
5117 5124 Kloppenburg <tjabo.kloppenburg-AT-unix-ag.uni-siegen.de>.
5118 5125
5119 5126 * IPython/Release.py (version): release 0.5.0-rc1. I want to put
5120 5127 this out soon because of the critical fixes in the inner loop for
5121 5128 generators.
5122 5129
5123 5130 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.getargspec): removed. This (and
5124 5131 _get_def) have been obsoleted by OInspect for a long time, I
5125 5132 hadn't noticed that they were dead code.
5126 5133 (Magic._ofind): restored _ofind functionality for a few literals
5127 5134 (those in ["''",'""','[]','{}','()']). But it won't work anymore
5128 5135 for things like "hello".capitalize?, since that would require a
5129 5136 potentially dangerous eval() again.
5130 5137
5131 5138 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell._prefilter): reorganized the
5132 5139 logic a bit more to clean up the escapes handling and minimize the
5133 5140 use of _ofind to only necessary cases. The interactive 'feel' of
5134 5141 IPython should have improved quite a bit with the changes in
5135 5142 _prefilter and _ofind (besides being far safer than before).
5136 5143
5137 5144 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_edit): Fixed old bug (but rather
5138 5145 obscure, never reported). Edit would fail to find the object to
5139 5146 edit under some circumstances.
5140 5147 (Magic._ofind): CRITICAL FIX. Finally removed the eval() calls
5141 5148 which were causing double-calling of generators. Those eval calls
5142 5149 were _very_ dangerous, since code with side effects could be
5143 5150 triggered. As they say, 'eval is evil'... These were the
5144 5151 nastiest evals in IPython. Besides, _ofind is now far simpler,
5145 5152 and it should also be quite a bit faster. Its use of inspect is
5146 5153 also safer, so perhaps some of the inspect-related crashes I've
5147 5154 seen lately with Python 2.3 might be taken care of. That will
5148 5155 need more testing.

5150 5157 2003-08-17 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5151 5158
5152 5159 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell._prefilter): significant
5153 5160 simplifications to the logic for handling user escapes. Faster
5154 5161 and simpler code.
5155 5162
5156 5163 2003-08-14 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5157 5164
5158 5165 * IPython/numutils.py (sum_flat): rewrote to be non-recursive.
5159 5166 Now it requires O(N) storage (N=size(a)) for non-contiguous input,
5160 5167 but it should be quite a bit faster. And the recursive version
5161 5168 generated O(log N) intermediate storage for all rank>1 arrays,
5162 5169 even if they were contiguous.
5163 5170 (l1norm): Added this function.
5164 5171 (norm): Added this function for arbitrary norms (including
5165 5172 l-infinity). l1 and l2 are still special cases for convenience
5166 5173 and speed.
5167 5174
5168 5175 2003-08-03 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5169 5176
5170 5177 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_edit): Removed all remaining string
5171 5178 exceptions, which now raise PendingDeprecationWarnings in Python
5172 5179 2.3. There were some in Magic and some in Gnuplot2.
5173 5180
5174 5181 2003-06-30 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5175 5182
5176 5183 * IPython/genutils.py (page): modified to call curses only for
5177 5184 terminals where TERM=='xterm'. After problems under many other
5178 5185 terminals were reported by Keith Beattie <KSBeattie-AT-lbl.gov>.
5179 5186
5180 5187 * IPython/iplib.py (complete): removed spurious 'print "IE"' which
5181 5188 would be triggered when readline was absent. This was just an old
5182 5189 debugging statement I'd forgotten to take out.
5183 5190
5184 5191 2003-06-20 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5185 5192
5186 5193 * IPython/genutils.py (clock): modified to return only user time
5187 5194 (not counting system time), after a discussion on scipy. While
5188 5195 system time may be a useful quantity occasionally, it may much
5189 5196 more easily be skewed by occasional swapping or other similar
5190 5197 activity.
5191 5198
5192 5199 2003-06-05 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5193 5200
5194 5201 * IPython/numutils.py (identity): new function, for building
5195 5202 arbitrary rank Kronecker deltas (mostly backwards compatible with
5196 5203 Numeric.identity)
5197 5204
5198 5205 2003-06-03 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5199 5206
5200 5207 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.handle_magic): protect
5201 5208 arguments passed to magics with spaces, to allow trailing '\' to
5202 5209 work normally (mainly for Windows users).
5203 5210
5204 5211 2003-05-29 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5205 5212
5206 5213 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): Load site._Helper() as help
5207 5214 instead of pydoc.help. This fixes a bizarre behavior where
5208 5215 printing '%s' % locals() would trigger the help system. Now
5209 5216 ipython behaves like normal python does.
5210 5217
5211 5218 Note that if one does 'from pydoc import help', the bizarre
5212 5219 behavior returns, but this will also happen in normal python, so
5213 5220 it's not an ipython bug anymore (it has to do with how pydoc.help
5214 5221 is implemented).
5215 5222
5216 5223 2003-05-22 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5217 5224
5218 5225 * IPython/FlexCompleter.py (Completer.attr_matches): fixed to
5219 5226 return [] instead of None when nothing matches, also match to end
5220 5227 of line. Patch by Gary Bishop.
5221 5228
5222 5229 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): Added same sys.excepthook
5223 5230 protection as before, for files passed on the command line. This
5224 5231 prevents the CrashHandler from kicking in if user files call into
5225 5232 sys.excepthook (such as PyQt and WxWindows have a nasty habit of
5226 5233 doing). After a report by Kasper Souren <Kasper.Souren-AT-ircam.fr>
5227 5234
5228 5235 2003-05-20 *** Released version 0.4.0
5229 5236
5230 5237 2003-05-20 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5231 5238
5232 5239 * setup.py: added support for manpages. It's a bit hackish b/c of
5233 5240 a bug in the way the bdist_rpm distutils target handles gzipped
5234 5241 manpages, but it works. After a patch by Jack.
5235 5242
5236 5243 2003-05-19 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5237 5244
5238 5245 * IPython/numutils.py: added a mockup of the kinds module, since
5239 5246 it was recently removed from Numeric. This way, numutils will
5240 5247 work for all users even if they are missing kinds.
5241 5248
5242 5249 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic._ofind): Harden against an inspect
5243 5250 failure, which can occur with SWIG-wrapped extensions. After a
5244 5251 crash report from Prabhu.
5245 5252
5246 5253 2003-05-16 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5247 5254
5248 5255 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.excepthook): New method to
5249 5256 protect ipython from user code which may call directly
5250 5257 sys.excepthook (this looks like an ipython crash to the user, even
5251 5258 when it isn't). After a patch by Gary Bishop <gb-AT-cs.unc.edu>.
5252 5259 This is especially important to help users of WxWindows, but may
5253 5260 also be useful in other cases.
5254 5261
5255 5262 * IPython/ultraTB.py (AutoFormattedTB.__call__): Changed to allow
5256 5263 an optional tb_offset to be specified, and to preserve exception
5257 5264 info if given. After a patch by Gary Bishop <gb-AT-cs.unc.edu>.
5258 5265
5259 5266 * ipython.1 (Default): Thanks to Jack's work, we now have manpages!
5260 5267
5261 5268 2003-05-15 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5262 5269
5263 5270 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.user_setup): Fix crash when
5264 5271 installing for a new user under Windows.
5265 5272
5266 5273 2003-05-12 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5267 5274
5268 5275 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.handle_emacs): New line
5269 5276 handler for Emacs comint-based lines. Currently it doesn't do
5270 5277 much (but importantly, it doesn't update the history cache). In
5271 5278 the future it may be expanded if Alex needs more functionality
5272 5279 there.
5273 5280
5274 5281 * IPython/CrashHandler.py (CrashHandler.__call__): Added platform
5275 5282 info to crash reports.
5276 5283
5277 5284 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.mainloop): Added -c option,
5278 5285 just like Python's -c. Also fixed crash with invalid -color
5279 5286 option value at startup. Thanks to Will French
5280 5287 <wfrench-AT-bestweb.net> for the bug report.
5281 5288
5282 5289 2003-05-09 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5283 5290
5284 5291 * IPython/genutils.py (EvalDict.__getitem__): Renamed EvalString
5285 5292 to EvalDict (it's a mapping, after all) and simplified its code
5286 5293 quite a bit, after a nice discussion on c.l.py where Gustavo
5287 5294 CΓ³rdova <gcordova-AT-sismex.com> suggested the new version.
5288 5295
5289 5296 2003-04-30 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5290 5297
5291 5298 * IPython/genutils.py (timings_out): modified it to reduce its
5292 5299 overhead in the common reps==1 case.
5293 5300
5294 5301 2003-04-29 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5295 5302
5296 5303 * IPython/genutils.py (timings_out): Modified to use the resource
5297 5304 module, which avoids the wraparound problems of time.clock().
5298 5305
5299 5306 2003-04-17 *** Released version 0.2.15pre4
5300 5307
5301 5308 2003-04-17 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5302 5309
5303 5310 * setup.py (scriptfiles): Split windows-specific stuff over to a
5304 5311 separate file, in an attempt to have a Windows GUI installer.
5305 5312 That didn't work, but part of the groundwork is done.
5306 5313
5307 5314 * IPython/UserConfig/ipythonrc: Added M-i, M-o and M-I for
5308 5315 indent/unindent with 4 spaces. Particularly useful in combination
5309 5316 with the new auto-indent option.
5310 5317
5311 5318 2003-04-16 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5312 5319
5313 5320 * IPython/Magic.py: various replacements of self.rc for
5314 5321 self.shell.rc. A lot more remains to be done to fully disentangle
5315 5322 this class from the main Shell class.
5316 5323
5317 5324 * IPython/GnuplotRuntime.py: added checks for mouse support so
5318 5325 that we don't try to enable it if the current gnuplot doesn't
5319 5326 really support it. Also added checks so that we don't try to
5320 5327 enable persist under Windows (where Gnuplot doesn't recognize the
5321 5328 option).
5322 5329
5323 5330 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.interact): Added optional
5324 5331 auto-indenting code, after a patch by King C. Shu
5325 5332 <kingshu-AT-myrealbox.com>. It's off by default because it doesn't
5326 5333 get along well with pasting indented code. If I ever figure out
5327 5334 how to make that part go well, it will become on by default.
5328 5335
5329 5336 * IPython/Prompts.py (Prompt1.auto_rewrite): Fixed bug which would
5330 5337 crash ipython if there was an unmatched '%' in the user's prompt
5331 5338 string. Reported by Thorsten Kampe <thorsten-AT-thorstenkampe.de>.
5332 5339
5333 5340 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.interact): removed the
5334 5341 ability to ask the user whether he wants to crash or not at the
5335 5342 'last line' exception handler. Calling functions at that point
5336 5343 changes the stack, and the error reports would have incorrect
5337 5344 tracebacks.
5338 5345
5339 5346 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_page): Added new @page magic, to
5340 5347 pass through a peger a pretty-printed form of any object. After a
5341 5348 contribution by Olivier Aubert <oaubert-AT-bat710.univ-lyon1.fr>

5343 5350 2003-04-14 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5344 5351
5345 5352 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.user_setup): Fixed bug where
5346 5353 all files in ~ would be modified at first install (instead of
5347 5354 ~/.ipython). This could be potentially disastrous, as the
5348 5355 modification (make line-endings native) could damage binary files.
5349 5356
5350 5357 2003-04-10 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5351 5358
5352 5359 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.handle_help): Modified to
5353 5360 handle only lines which are invalid python. This now means that
5354 5361 lines like 'x=1 #?' execute properly. Thanks to Jeffery Collins
5355 5362 for the bug report.
5356 5363
5357 5364 2003-04-01 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5358 5365
5359 5366 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.showtraceback): Fixed bug
5360 5367 where failing to set sys.last_traceback would crash pdb.pm().
5361 5368 Thanks to Jeffery D. Collins <Jeff.Collins-AT-vexcel.com> for the bug
5362 5369 report.
5363 5370
5364 5371 2003-03-25 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5365 5372
5366 5373 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_prun): rstrip() output of profiler
5367 5374 before printing it (it had a lot of spurious blank lines at the
5368 5375 end).
5369 5376
5370 5377 * IPython/Gnuplot2.py (Gnuplot.hardcopy): fixed bug where lpr
5371 5378 output would be sent 21 times! Obviously people don't use this
5372 5379 too often, or I would have heard about it.
5373 5380
5374 5381 2003-03-24 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5375 5382
5376 5383 * setup.py (scriptfiles): renamed the data_files parameter from
5377 5384 'base' to 'data' to fix rpm build issues. Thanks to Ralf Ahlbrink
5378 5385 for the patch.
5379 5386
5380 5387 2003-03-20 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5381 5388
5382 5389 * IPython/genutils.py (error): added error() and fatal()
5383 5390 functions.

5388 5395
5389 5396 * setupext/install_data_ext.py
5390 5397 (install_data_ext.initialize_options): Class contributed by Jack
5391 5398 Moffit for fixing the old distutils hack. He is sending this to
5392 5399 the distutils folks so in the future we may not need it as a
5393 5400 private fix.
5394 5401
5395 5402 * MANIFEST.in: Extensive reorganization, based on Jack Moffit's
5396 5403 changes for Debian packaging. See his patch for full details.
5397 5404 The old distutils hack of making the ipythonrc* files carry a
5398 5405 bogus .py extension is gone, at last. Examples were moved to a
5399 5406 separate subdir under doc/, and the separate executable scripts
5400 5407 now live in their own directory. Overall a great cleanup. The
5401 5408 manual was updated to use the new files, and setup.py has been
5402 5409 fixed for this setup.
5403 5410
5404 5411 * IPython/PyColorize.py (Parser.usage): made non-executable and
5405 5412 created a pycolor wrapper around it to be included as a script.
5406 5413
5407 5414 2003-03-12 *** Released version 0.2.15pre2

5409 5416 2003-03-12 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5410 5417
5411 5418 * IPython/ColorANSI.py (make_color_table): Finally fixed the
5412 5419 long-standing problem with garbage characters in some terminals.
5413 5420 The issue was really that the \001 and \002 escapes must _only_ be
5414 5421 passed to input prompts (which call readline), but _never_ to
5415 5422 normal text to be printed on screen. I changed ColorANSI to have
5416 5423 two classes: TermColors and InputTermColors, each with the
5417 5424 appropriate escapes for input prompts or normal text. The code in
5418 5425 Prompts.py got slightly more complicated, but this very old and
5419 5426 annoying bug is finally fixed.
5420 5427
5421 5428 All the credit for nailing down the real origin of this problem
5422 5429 and the correct solution goes to Jack Moffit <jack-AT-xiph.org>.
5423 5430 *Many* thanks to him for spending quite a bit of effort on this.
5424 5431
5425 5432 2003-03-05 *** Released version 0.2.15pre1
5426 5433
5427 5434 2003-03-03 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5428 5435
5429 5436 * IPython/FakeModule.py: Moved the former _FakeModule to a
5430 5437 separate file, because it's also needed by Magic (to fix a similar
5431 5438 pickle-related issue in @run).
5432 5439
5433 5440 2003-03-02 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5434 5441
5435 5442 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_autocall): new magic to control
5436 5443 the autocall option at runtime.
5437 5444 (Magic.magic_dhist): changed self.user_ns to self.shell.user_ns
5438 5445 across Magic.py to start separating Magic from InteractiveShell.
5439 5446 (Magic._ofind): Fixed to return proper namespace for dotted
5440 5447 names. Before, a dotted name would always return 'not currently
5441 5448 defined', because it would find the 'parent'. s.x would be found,
5442 5449 but since 'x' isn't defined by itself, it would get confused.
5443 5450 (Magic.magic_run): Fixed pickling problems reported by Ralf
5444 5451 Ahlbrink <RAhlbrink-AT-RosenInspection.net>. The fix was similar to
5445 5452 that I'd used when Mike Heeter reported similar issues at the
5446 5453 top-level, but now for @run. It boils down to injecting the
5447 5454 namespace where code is being executed with something that looks
5448 5455 enough like a module to fool pickle.dump(). Since a pickle stores
5449 5456 a named reference to the importing module, we need this for
5450 5457 pickles to save something sensible.
5451 5458
5452 5459 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): added an autocall option.
5453 5460
5454 5461 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell._prefilter): reordered all of
5455 5462 the auto-eval code. Now autocalling is an option, and the code is
5456 5463 also vastly safer. There is no more eval() involved at all.
5457 5464
5458 5465 2003-03-01 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5459 5466
5460 5467 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic._ofind): Changed interface to return a
5461 5468 dict with named keys instead of a tuple.
5462 5469
5463 5470 * IPython: Started using CVS for IPython as of 0.2.15pre1.
5464 5471
5465 5472 * setup.py (make_shortcut): Fixed message about directories
5466 5473 created during Windows installation (the directories were ok, just
5467 5474 the printed message was misleading). Thanks to Chris Liechti
5468 5475 <cliechti-AT-gmx.net> for the heads up.

5470 5477 2003-02-21 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5471 5478
5472 5479 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell._prefilter): Fixed catching
5473 5480 of ValueError exception when checking for auto-execution. This
5474 5481 one is raised by things like Numeric arrays arr.flat when the
5475 5482 array is non-contiguous.
5476 5483
5477 5484 2003-01-31 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5478 5485
5479 5486 * IPython/genutils.py (SystemExec.bq): Fixed bug where bq would
5480 5487 not return any value at all (even though the command would get
5481 5488 executed).
5482 5489 (xsys): Flush stdout right after printing the command to ensure
5483 5490 proper ordering of commands and command output in the total
5484 5491 output.
5485 5492 (SystemExec/xsys/bq): Switched the names of xsys/bq and
5486 5493 system/getoutput as defaults. The old ones are kept for
5487 5494 compatibility reasons, so no code which uses this library needs
5488 5495 changing.
5489 5496
5490 5497 2003-01-27 *** Released version 0.2.14
5491 5498
5492 5499 2003-01-25 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5493 5500
5494 5501 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_edit): Fixed problem where
5495 5502 functions defined in previous edit sessions could not be re-edited
5496 5503 (because the temp files were immediately removed). Now temp files
5497 5504 are removed only at IPython's exit.
5498 5505 (Magic.magic_run): Improved @run to perform shell-like expansions
5499 5506 on its arguments (~users and $VARS). With this, @run becomes more
5500 5507 like a normal command-line.
5501 5508
5502 5509 * IPython/Shell.py (IPShellEmbed.__call__): Fixed a bunch of small
5503 5510 bugs related to embedding and cleaned up that code. A fairly
5504 5511 important one was the impossibility to access the global namespace
5505 5512 through the embedded IPython (only local variables were visible).
5506 5513
5507 5514 2003-01-14 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5508 5515
5509 5516 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell._prefilter): Fixed
5510 5517 auto-calling to be a bit more conservative. Now it doesn't get
5511 5518 triggered if any of '!=()<>' are in the rest of the input line, to
5512 5519 allow comparing callables. Thanks to Alex for the heads up.
5513 5520
5514 5521 2003-01-07 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5515 5522
5516 5523 * IPython/genutils.py (page): fixed estimation of the number of
5517 5524 lines in a string to be paged to simply count newlines. This
5518 5525 prevents over-guessing due to embedded escape sequences. A better
5519 5526 long-term solution would involve stripping out the control chars
5520 5527 for the count, but it's potentially so expensive I just don't
5521 5528 think it's worth doing.
5522 5529
5523 5530 2002-12-19 *** Released version 0.2.14pre50
5524 5531
5525 5532 2002-12-19 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5526 5533
5527 5534 * tools/release (version): Changed release scripts to inform
5528 5535 Andrea and build a NEWS file with a list of recent changes.
5529 5536
5530 5537 * IPython/ColorANSI.py (__all__): changed terminal detection
5531 5538 code. Seems to work better for xterms without breaking
5532 5539 konsole. Will need more testing to determine if WinXP and Mac OSX
5533 5540 also work ok.
5534 5541
5535 5542 2002-12-18 *** Released version 0.2.14pre49
5536 5543
5537 5544 2002-12-18 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5538 5545
5539 5546 * Docs: added new info about Mac OSX, from Andrea.
5540 5547
5541 5548 * IPython/Gnuplot2.py (String): Added a String PlotItem class to
5542 5549 allow direct plotting of python strings whose format is the same
5543 5550 of gnuplot data files.
5544 5551
5545 5552 2002-12-16 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5546 5553
5547 5554 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.interact): fixed default (y)
5548 5555 value of exit question to be acknowledged.
5549 5556
5550 5557 2002-12-03 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5551 5558
5552 5559 * IPython/ipmaker.py: removed generators, which had been added
5553 5560 by mistake in an earlier debugging run. This was causing trouble
5554 5561 to users of python 2.1.x. Thanks to Abel Daniel <abli-AT-freemail.hu>
5555 5562 for pointing this out.
5556 5563
5557 5564 2002-11-17 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5558 5565
5559 5566 * Manual: updated the Gnuplot section.
5560 5567
5561 5568 * IPython/GnuplotRuntime.py: refactored a lot all this code, with
5562 5569 a much better split of what goes in Runtime and what goes in
5563 5570 Interactive.
5564 5571
5565 5572 * IPython/ipmaker.py: fixed bug where import_fail_info wasn't
5566 5573 being imported from iplib.
5567 5574
5568 5575 * IPython/GnuplotInteractive.py (magic_gpc): renamed @gp to @gpc
5569 5576 for command-passing. Now the global Gnuplot instance is called
5570 5577 'gp' instead of 'g', which was really a far too fragile and
5571 5578 common name.
5572 5579
5573 5580 * IPython/Gnuplot2.py (eps_fix_bbox): added this to fix broken
5574 5581 bounding boxes generated by Gnuplot for square plots.
5575 5582
5576 5583 * IPython/genutils.py (popkey): new function added. I should
5577 5584 suggest this on c.l.py as a dict method, it seems useful.
5578 5585
5579 5586 * IPython/Gnuplot2.py (Gnuplot.plot): Overhauled plot and replot
5580 5587 to transparently handle PostScript generation. MUCH better than
5581 5588 the previous plot_eps/replot_eps (which I removed now). The code
5582 5589 is also fairly clean and well documented now (including
5583 5590 docstrings).
5584 5591
5585 5592 2002-11-13 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5586 5593
5587 5594 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_edit): fixed docstring
5588 5595 (inconsistent with options).
5589 5596
5590 5597 * IPython/Gnuplot2.py (Gnuplot.hardcopy): hardcopy had been
5591 5598 manually disabled, I don't know why. Fixed it.
5592 5599 (Gnuplot._plot_eps): added new plot_eps/replot_eps to get directly
5593 5600 eps output.
5594 5601
5595 5602 2002-11-12 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5596 5603
5597 5604 * IPython/genutils.py (ask_yes_no): trap EOF and ^C so that they
5598 5605 don't propagate up to caller. Fixes crash reported by François
5599 5606 Pinard.
5600 5607
5601 5608 2002-11-09 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5602 5609
5603 5610 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): fixed problem with writing
5604 5611 history file for new users.
5605 5612 (make_IPython): fixed bug where initial install would leave the
5606 5613 user running in the .ipython dir.
5607 5614 (make_IPython): fixed bug where config dir .ipython would be
5608 5615 created regardless of the given -ipythondir option. Thanks to Cory
5609 5616 Dodt <cdodt-AT-fcoe.k12.ca.us> for the bug report.
5610 5617
5611 5618 * IPython/genutils.py (ask_yes_no): new function for asking yes/no
5612 5619 type confirmations. Will need to use it in all of IPython's code
5613 5620 consistently.
5614 5621
5615 5622 * IPython/CrashHandler.py (CrashHandler.__call__): changed the
5616 5623 context to print 31 lines instead of the default 5. This will make
5617 5624 the crash reports extremely detailed in case the problem is in
5618 5625 libraries I don't have access to.
5619 5626
5620 5627 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.interact): changed the 'last
5621 5628 line of defense' code to still crash, but giving users fair
5622 5629 warning. I don't want internal errors to go unreported: if there's
5623 5630 an internal problem, IPython should crash and generate a full
5624 5631 report.
5625 5632
5626 5633 2002-11-08 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5627 5634
5628 5635 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.interact): added code to trap
5629 5636 otherwise uncaught exceptions which can appear if people set
5630 5637 sys.stdout to something badly broken. Thanks to a crash report
5631 5638 from henni-AT-mail.brainbot.com.
5632 5639
5633 5640 2002-11-04 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5634 5641
5635 5642 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.interact): added
5636 5643 __IPYTHON__active to the builtins. It's a flag which goes on when
5637 5644 the interaction starts and goes off again when it stops. This
5638 5645 allows embedding code to detect being inside IPython. Before this
5639 5646 was done via __IPYTHON__, but that only shows that an IPython
5640 5647 instance has been created.
5641 5648
5642 5649 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_env): I realized that in a
5643 5650 UserDict, instance.data holds the data as a normal dict. So I
5644 5651 modified @env to return os.environ.data instead of rebuilding a
5645 5652 dict by hand.
5646 5653
5647 5654 2002-11-02 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5648 5655
5649 5656 * IPython/genutils.py (warn): changed so that level 1 prints no
5650 5657 header. Level 2 is now the default (with 'WARNING' header, as
5651 5658 before). I think I tracked all places where changes were needed in
5652 5659 IPython, but outside code using the old level numbering may have
5653 5660 broken.
5654 5661
5655 5662 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.runcode): added this to
5656 5663 handle the tracebacks in SystemExit traps correctly. The previous
5657 5664 code (through interact) was printing more of the stack than
5658 5665 necessary, showing IPython internal code to the user.
5659 5666
5660 5667 * IPython/UserConfig/ipythonrc.py: Made confirm_exit 1 by
5661 5668 default. Now that the default at the confirmation prompt is yes,
5662 5669 it's not so intrusive. François' argument that ipython sessions
5663 5670 tend to be complex enough not to lose them from an accidental C-d,
5664 5671 is a valid one.
5665 5672
5666 5673 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.interact): added a
5667 5674 showtraceback() call to the SystemExit trap, and modified the exit
5668 5675 confirmation to have yes as the default.
5669 5676
5670 5677 * IPython/UserConfig/ipythonrc.py: removed 'session' option from
5671 5678 this file. It's been gone from the code for a long time, this was
5672 5679 simply leftover junk.
5673 5680
5674 5681 2002-11-01 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5675 5682
5676 5683 * IPython/UserConfig/ipythonrc.py: new confirm_exit option
5677 5684 added. If set, IPython now traps EOF and asks for
5678 5685 confirmation. After a request by François Pinard.
5679 5686
5680 5687 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_Exit): New @Exit and @Quit instead
5681 5688 of @abort, and with a new (better) mechanism for handling the
5682 5689 exceptions.
5683 5690
5684 5691 2002-10-27 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5685 5692
5686 5693 * IPython/usage.py (__doc__): updated the --help information and
5687 5694 the ipythonrc file to indicate that -log generates
5688 5695 ./ipython.log. Also fixed the corresponding info in @logstart.
5689 5696 This and several other fixes in the manuals thanks to reports by
5690 5697 François Pinard <pinard-AT-iro.umontreal.ca>.
5691 5698
5692 5699 * IPython/Logger.py (Logger.switch_log): Fixed error message to
5693 5700 refer to @logstart (instead of @log, which doesn't exist).
5694 5701
5695 5702 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell._prefilter): fixed
5696 5703 AttributeError crash. Thanks to Christopher Armstrong
5697 5704 <radix-AT-twistedmatrix.com> for the report/fix. This bug had been
5698 5705 introduced recently (in 0.2.14pre37) with the fix to the eval
5699 5706 problem mentioned below.
5700 5707
5701 5708 2002-10-17 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5702 5709
5703 5710 * IPython/ConfigLoader.py (ConfigLoader.load): Fixes for Windows
5704 5711 installation. Thanks to Leonardo Santagada <retype-AT-terra.com.br>.
5705 5712
5706 5713 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell._prefilter): Many changes to
5707 5714 this function to fix a problem reported by Alex Schmolck. He saw
5708 5715 it with list comprehensions and generators, which were getting
5709 5716 called twice. The real problem was an 'eval' call in testing for
5710 5717 automagic which was evaluating the input line silently.
5711 5718
5712 5719 This is a potentially very nasty bug, if the input has side
5713 5720 effects which must not be repeated. The code is much cleaner now,
5714 5721 without any blanket 'except' left and with a regexp test for
5715 5722 actual function names.
5716 5723
5717 5724 But an eval remains, which I'm not fully comfortable with. I just
5718 5725 don't know how to find out if an expression could be a callable in
5719 5726 the user's namespace without doing an eval on the string. However
5720 5727 that string is now much more strictly checked so that no code
5721 5728 slips by, so the eval should only happen for things that can
5722 5729 really be only function/method names.
5723 5730
5724 5731 2002-10-15 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5725 5732
5726 5733 * Updated LyX to 1.2.1 so I can work on the docs again. Added Mac
5727 5734 OSX information to main manual, removed README_Mac_OSX file from
5728 5735 distribution. Also updated credits for recent additions.
5729 5736
5730 5737 2002-10-10 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5731 5738
5732 5739 * README_Mac_OSX: Added a README for Mac OSX users for fixing
5733 5740 terminal-related issues. Many thanks to Andrea Riciputi
5734 5741 <andrea.riciputi-AT-libero.it> for writing it.
5735 5742
5736 5743 * IPython/UserConfig/ipythonrc.py: Fixes to various small issues,
5737 5744 thanks to Thorsten Kampe <thorsten-AT-thorstenkampe.de>.
5738 5745
5739 5746 * setup.py (make_shortcut): Fixes for Windows installation. Thanks
5740 5747 to Fredrik Kant <fredrik.kant-AT-front.com> and Syver Enstad
5741 5748 <syver-en-AT-online.no> who both submitted patches for this problem.
5742 5749
5743 5750 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.embed_mainloop): Patch for
5744 5751 global embedding to make sure that things don't overwrite user
5745 5752 globals accidentally. Thanks to Richard <rxe-AT-renre-europe.com>
5746 5753
5747 5754 * IPython/Gnuplot2.py (gp): Patch for Gnuplot.py 1.6
5748 5755 compatibility. Thanks to Hayden Callow
5749 5756 <h.callow-AT-elec.canterbury.ac.nz>
5750 5757
5751 5758 2002-10-04 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5752 5759
5753 5760 * IPython/Gnuplot2.py (PlotItem): Added 'index' option for
5754 5761 Gnuplot.File objects.
5755 5762
5756 5763 2002-07-23 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5757 5764
5758 5765 * IPython/genutils.py (timing): Added timings() and timing() for
5759 5766 quick access to the most commonly needed data, the execution
5760 5767 times. Old timing() renamed to timings_out().
5761 5768
5762 5769 2002-07-18 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5763 5770
5764 5771 * IPython/Shell.py (IPShellEmbed.restore_system_completer): fixed
5765 5772 bug with nested instances disrupting the parent's tab completion.
5766 5773
5767 5774 * IPython/iplib.py (all_completions): Added Alex Schmolck's
5768 5775 all_completions code to begin the emacs integration.
5769 5776
5770 5777 * IPython/Gnuplot2.py (zip_items): Added optional 'titles'
5771 5778 argument to allow titling individual arrays when plotting.
5772 5779
5773 5780 2002-07-15 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5774 5781
5775 5782 * setup.py (make_shortcut): changed to retrieve the value of
5776 5783 'Program Files' directory from the registry (this value changes in
5777 5784 non-english versions of Windows). Thanks to Thomas Fanslau
5778 5785 <tfanslau-AT-gmx.de> for the report.
5779 5786
5780 5787 2002-07-10 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5781 5788
5782 5789 * IPython/ultraTB.py (VerboseTB.debugger): enabled workaround for
5783 5790 a bug in pdb, which crashes if a line with only whitespace is
5784 5791 entered. Bug report submitted to sourceforge.
5785 5792
5786 5793 2002-07-09 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5787 5794
5788 5795 * IPython/ultraTB.py (VerboseTB.nullrepr): fixed rare crash when
5789 5796 reporting exceptions (it's a bug in inspect.py, I just set a
5790 5797 workaround).
5791 5798
5792 5799 2002-07-08 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5793 5800
5794 5801 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.__init__): fixed reference to
5795 5802 __IPYTHON__ in __builtins__ to show up in user_ns.
5796 5803
5797 5804 2002-07-03 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5798 5805
5799 5806 * IPython/GnuplotInteractive.py (magic_gp_set_default): changed
5800 5807 name from @gp_set_instance to @gp_set_default.
5801 5808
5802 5809 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): default editor value set to
5803 5810 '0' (a string), to match the rc file. Otherwise will crash when
5804 5811 .strip() is called on it.
5805 5812
5806 5813
5807 5814 2002-06-28 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5808 5815
5809 5816 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.safe_execfile): fix importing
5810 5817 of files in current directory when a file is executed via
5811 5818 @run. Patch also by RA <ralf_ahlbrink-AT-web.de>.
5812 5819
5813 5820 * setup.py (manfiles): fix for rpm builds, submitted by RA
5814 5821 <ralf_ahlbrink-AT-web.de>. Now we have RPMs!
5815 5822
5816 5823 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): fixed lookup of default
5817 5824 editor when set to '0'. Problem was, '0' evaluates to True (it's a
5818 5825 string!). A. Schmolck caught this one.
5819 5826
5820 5827 2002-06-27 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5821 5828
5822 5829 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): fixed bug when running user
5823 5830 defined files at the cmd line. __name__ wasn't being set to
5824 5831 __main__.
5825 5832
5826 5833 * IPython/Gnuplot2.py (zip_items): improved it so it can plot also
5827 5834 regular lists and tuples besides Numeric arrays.
5828 5835
5829 5836 * IPython/Prompts.py (CachedOutput.__call__): Added output
5830 5837 supression for input ending with ';'. Similar to Mathematica and
5831 5838 Matlab. The _* vars and Out[] list are still updated, just like
5832 5839 Mathematica behaves.
5833 5840
5834 5841 2002-06-25 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5835 5842
5836 5843 * IPython/ConfigLoader.py (ConfigLoader.load): fixed checking of
5837 5844 .ini extensions for profiels under Windows.
5838 5845
5839 5846 * IPython/OInspect.py (Inspector.pinfo): improved alignment of
5840 5847 string form. Fix contributed by Alexander Schmolck
5841 5848 <a.schmolck-AT-gmx.net>
5842 5849
5843 5850 * IPython/GnuplotRuntime.py (gp_new): new function. Returns a
5844 5851 pre-configured Gnuplot instance.
5845 5852
5846 5853 2002-06-21 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5847 5854
5848 5855 * IPython/numutils.py (exp_safe): new function, works around the
5849 5856 underflow problems in Numeric.
5850 5857 (log2): New fn. Safe log in base 2: returns exact integer answer
5851 5858 for exact integer powers of 2.
5852 5859
5853 5860 * IPython/Magic.py (get_py_filename): fixed it not expanding '~'
5854 5861 properly.
5855 5862
5856 5863 2002-06-20 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5857 5864
5858 5865 * IPython/genutils.py (timing): new function like
5859 5866 Mathematica's. Similar to time_test, but returns more info.
5860 5867
5861 5868 2002-06-18 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5862 5869
5863 5870 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_save): modified @save and @r
5864 5871 according to Mike Heeter's suggestions.
5865 5872
5866 5873 2002-06-16 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5867 5874
5868 5875 * IPython/GnuplotRuntime.py: Massive overhaul to the Gnuplot
5869 5876 system. GnuplotMagic is gone as a user-directory option. New files
5870 5877 make it easier to use all the gnuplot stuff both from external
5871 5878 programs as well as from IPython. Had to rewrite part of
5872 5879 hardcopy() b/c of a strange bug: often the ps files simply don't
5873 5880 get created, and require a repeat of the command (often several
5874 5881 times).
5875 5882
5876 5883 * IPython/ultraTB.py (AutoFormattedTB.__call__): changed to
5877 5884 resolve output channel at call time, so that if sys.stderr has
5878 5885 been redirected by user this gets honored.
5879 5886
5880 5887 2002-06-13 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5881 5888
5882 5889 * IPython/Shell.py (IPShell.__init__): Changed IPythonShell to
5883 5890 IPShell. Kept a copy with the old names to avoid breaking people's
5884 5891 embedded code.
5885 5892
5886 5893 * IPython/ipython: simplified it to the bare minimum after
5887 5894 Holger's suggestions. Added info about how to use it in
5888 5895 PYTHONSTARTUP.
5889 5896
5890 5897 * IPython/Shell.py (IPythonShell): changed the options passing
5891 5898 from a string with funky %s replacements to a straight list. Maybe
5892 5899 a bit more typing, but it follows sys.argv conventions, so there's
5893 5900 less special-casing to remember.
5894 5901
5895 5902 2002-06-12 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5896 5903
5897 5904 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_r): new magic auto-repeat
5898 5905 command. Thanks to a suggestion by Mike Heeter.
5899 5906 (Magic.magic_pfile): added behavior to look at filenames if given
5900 5907 arg is not a defined object.
5901 5908 (Magic.magic_save): New @save function to save code snippets. Also
5902 5909 a Mike Heeter idea.
5903 5910
5904 5911 * IPython/UserConfig/GnuplotMagic.py (plot): Improvements to
5905 5912 plot() and replot(). Much more convenient now, especially for
5906 5913 interactive use.
5907 5914
5908 5915 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_run): Added .py automatically to
5909 5916 filenames.
5910 5917
5911 5918 2002-06-02 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5912 5919
5913 5920 * IPython/Struct.py (Struct.__init__): modified to admit
5914 5921 initialization via another struct.
5915 5922
5916 5923 * IPython/genutils.py (SystemExec.__init__): New stateful
5917 5924 interface to xsys and bq. Useful for writing system scripts.
5918 5925
5919 5926 2002-05-30 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5920 5927
5921 5928 * MANIFEST.in: Changed docfile selection to exclude all the lyx
5922 5929 documents. This will make the user download smaller (it's getting
5923 5930 too big).
5924 5931
5925 5932 2002-05-29 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5926 5933
5927 5934 * IPython/iplib.py (_FakeModule.__init__): New class introduced to
5928 5935 fix problems with shelve and pickle. Seems to work, but I don't
5929 5936 know if corner cases break it. Thanks to Mike Heeter
5930 5937 <korora-AT-SDF.LONESTAR.ORG> for the bug reports and test cases.
5931 5938
5932 5939 2002-05-24 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5933 5940
5934 5941 * IPython/Magic.py (Macro.__init__): fixed magics embedded in
5935 5942 macros having broken.
5936 5943
5937 5944 2002-05-21 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5938 5945
5939 5946 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_logstart): fixed recently
5940 5947 introduced logging bug: all history before logging started was
5941 5948 being written one character per line! This came from the redesign
5942 5949 of the input history as a special list which slices to strings,
5943 5950 not to lists.
5944 5951
5945 5952 2002-05-20 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5946 5953
5947 5954 * IPython/Prompts.py (CachedOutput.__init__): made the color table
5948 5955 be an attribute of all classes in this module. The design of these
5949 5956 classes needs some serious overhauling.
5950 5957
5951 5958 * IPython/DPyGetOpt.py (DPyGetOpt.setPosixCompliance): fixed bug
5952 5959 which was ignoring '_' in option names.
5953 5960
5954 5961 * IPython/ultraTB.py (FormattedTB.__init__): Changed
5955 5962 'Verbose_novars' to 'Context' and made it the new default. It's a
5956 5963 bit more readable and also safer than verbose.
5957 5964
5958 5965 * IPython/PyColorize.py (Parser.__call__): Fixed coloring of
5959 5966 triple-quoted strings.
5960 5967
5961 5968 * IPython/OInspect.py (__all__): new module exposing the object
5962 5969 introspection facilities. Now the corresponding magics are dummy
5963 5970 wrappers around this. Having this module will make it much easier
5964 5971 to put these functions into our modified pdb.
5965 5972 This new object inspector system uses the new colorizing module,
5966 5973 so source code and other things are nicely syntax highlighted.
5967 5974
5968 5975 2002-05-18 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5969 5976
5970 5977 * IPython/ColorANSI.py: Split the coloring tools into a separate
5971 5978 module so I can use them in other code easier (they were part of
5972 5979 ultraTB).
5973 5980
5974 5981 2002-05-17 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5975 5982
5976 5983 * IPython/UserConfig/GnuplotMagic.py (magic_gp_set_instance):
5977 5984 fixed it to set the global 'g' also to the called instance, as
5978 5985 long as 'g' was still a gnuplot instance (so it doesn't overwrite
5979 5986 user's 'g' variables).
5980 5987
5981 5988 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.__init__): Added In/Out
5982 5989 global variables (aliases to _ih,_oh) so that users which expect
5983 5990 In[5] or Out[7] to work aren't unpleasantly surprised.
5984 5991 (InputList.__getslice__): new class to allow executing slices of
5985 5992 input history directly. Very simple class, complements the use of
5986 5993 macros.
5987 5994
5988 5995 2002-05-16 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5989 5996
5990 5997 * setup.py (docdirbase): make doc directory be just doc/IPython
5991 5998 without version numbers, it will reduce clutter for users.
5992 5999
5993 6000 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_run): Add explicit local dict to
5994 6001 execfile call to prevent possible memory leak. See for details:
5995 6002 http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2002-February/088476.html
5996 6003
5997 6004 2002-05-15 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
5998 6005
5999 6006 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_psource): made the object
6000 6007 introspection names be more standard: pdoc, pdef, pfile and
6001 6008 psource. They all print/page their output, and it makes
6002 6009 remembering them easier. Kept old names for compatibility as
6003 6010 aliases.
6004 6011
6005 6012 2002-05-14 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6006 6013
6007 6014 * IPython/UserConfig/GnuplotMagic.py: I think I finally understood
6008 6015 what the mouse problem was. The trick is to use gnuplot with temp
6009 6016 files and NOT with pipes (for data communication), because having
6010 6017 both pipes and the mouse on is bad news.
6011 6018
6012 6019 2002-05-13 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6013 6020
6014 6021 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic._ofind): fixed namespace order search
6015 6022 bug. Information would be reported about builtins even when
6016 6023 user-defined functions overrode them.
6017 6024
6018 6025 2002-05-11 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6019 6026
6020 6027 * IPython/__init__.py (__all__): removed FlexCompleter from
6021 6028 __all__ so that things don't fail in platforms without readline.
6022 6029
6023 6030 2002-05-10 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6024 6031
6025 6032 * IPython/__init__.py (__all__): removed numutils from __all__ b/c
6026 6033 it requires Numeric, effectively making Numeric a dependency for
6027 6034 IPython.
6028 6035
6029 6036 * Released 0.2.13
6030 6037
6031 6038 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_prun): big overhaul to the
6032 6039 profiler interface. Now all the major options from the profiler
6033 6040 module are directly supported in IPython, both for single
6034 6041 expressions (@prun) and for full programs (@run -p).
6035 6042
6036 6043 2002-05-09 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6037 6044
6038 6045 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_doc): fixed to show docstrings of
6039 6046 magic properly formatted for screen.
6040 6047
6041 6048 * setup.py (make_shortcut): Changed things to put pdf version in
6042 6049 doc/ instead of doc/manual (had to change lyxport a bit).
6043 6050
6044 6051 * IPython/Magic.py (Profile.string_stats): made profile runs go
6045 6052 through pager (they are long and a pager allows searching, saving,
6046 6053 etc.)
6047 6054
6048 6055 2002-05-08 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6049 6056
6050 6057 * Released 0.2.12
6051 6058
6052 6059 2002-05-06 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6053 6060
6054 6061 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_hist): small bug fixed (recently
6055 6062 introduced); 'hist n1 n2' was broken.
6056 6063 (Magic.magic_pdb): added optional on/off arguments to @pdb
6057 6064 (Magic.magic_run): added option -i to @run, which executes code in
6058 6065 the IPython namespace instead of a clean one. Also added @irun as
6059 6066 an alias to @run -i.
6060 6067
6061 6068 * IPython/UserConfig/GnuplotMagic.py (magic_gp_set_instance):
6062 6069 fixed (it didn't really do anything, the namespaces were wrong).
6063 6070
6064 6071 * IPython/Debugger.py (__init__): Added workaround for python 2.1
6065 6072
6066 6073 * IPython/__init__.py (__all__): Fixed package namespace, now
6067 6074 'import IPython' does give access to IPython.<all> as
6068 6075 expected. Also renamed __release__ to Release.
6069 6076
6070 6077 * IPython/Debugger.py (__license__): created new Pdb class which
6071 6078 functions like a drop-in for the normal pdb.Pdb but does NOT
6072 6079 import readline by default. This way it doesn't muck up IPython's
6073 6080 readline handling, and now tab-completion finally works in the
6074 6081 debugger -- sort of. It completes things globally visible, but the
6075 6082 completer doesn't track the stack as pdb walks it. That's a bit
6076 6083 tricky, and I'll have to implement it later.
6077 6084
6078 6085 2002-05-05 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6079 6086
6080 6087 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_oinfo): fixed formatting bug for
6081 6088 magic docstrings when printed via ? (explicit \'s were being
6082 6089 printed).
6083 6090
6084 6091 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): fixed namespace
6085 6092 identification bug. Now variables loaded via logs or command-line
6086 6093 files are recognized in the interactive namespace by @who.
6087 6094
6088 6095 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.safe_execfile): Fixed bug in
6089 6096 log replay system stemming from the string form of Structs.
6090 6097
6091 6098 * IPython/Magic.py (Macro.__init__): improved macros to properly
6092 6099 handle magic commands in them.
6093 6100 (Magic.magic_logstart): usernames are now expanded so 'logstart
6094 6101 ~/mylog' now works.
6095 6102
6096 6103 * IPython/iplib.py (complete): fixed bug where paths starting with
6097 6104 '/' would be completed as magic names.
6098 6105
6099 6106 2002-05-04 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6100 6107
6101 6108 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_run): added options -p and -f to
6102 6109 allow running full programs under the profiler's control.
6103 6110
6104 6111 * IPython/ultraTB.py (FormattedTB.__init__): Added Verbose_novars
6105 6112 mode to report exceptions verbosely but without formatting
6106 6113 variables. This addresses the issue of ipython 'freezing' (it's
6107 6114 not frozen, but caught in an expensive formatting loop) when huge
6108 6115 variables are in the context of an exception.
6109 6116 (VerboseTB.text): Added '--->' markers at line where exception was
6110 6117 triggered. Much clearer to read, especially in NoColor modes.
6111 6118
6112 6119 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_run): bugfix: -n option had been
6113 6120 implemented in reverse when changing to the new parse_options().
6114 6121
6115 6122 2002-05-03 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6116 6123
6117 6124 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.parse_options): new function so that
6118 6125 magics can parse options easier.
6119 6126 (Magic.magic_prun): new function similar to profile.run(),
6120 6127 suggested by Chris Hart.
6121 6128 (Magic.magic_cd): fixed behavior so that it only changes if
6122 6129 directory actually is in history.
6123 6130
6124 6131 * IPython/usage.py (__doc__): added information about potential
6125 6132 slowness of Verbose exception mode when there are huge data
6126 6133 structures to be formatted (thanks to Archie Paulson).
6127 6134
6128 6135 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): Changed default logging
6129 6136 (when simply called with -log) to use curr_dir/ipython.log in
6130 6137 rotate mode. Fixed crash which was occuring with -log before
6131 6138 (thanks to Jim Boyle).
6132 6139
6133 6140 2002-05-01 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6134 6141
6135 6142 * Released 0.2.11 for these fixes (mainly the ultraTB one which
6136 6143 was nasty -- though somewhat of a corner case).
6137 6144
6138 6145 * IPython/ultraTB.py (AutoFormattedTB.text): renamed __text to
6139 6146 text (was a bug).
6140 6147
6141 6148 2002-04-30 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6142 6149
6143 6150 * IPython/UserConfig/GnuplotMagic.py (magic_gp): Minor fix to add
6144 6151 a print after ^D or ^C from the user so that the In[] prompt
6145 6152 doesn't over-run the gnuplot one.
6146 6153
6147 6154 2002-04-29 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6148 6155
6149 6156 * Released 0.2.10
6150 6157
6151 6158 * IPython/__release__.py (version): get date dynamically.
6152 6159
6153 6160 * Misc. documentation updates thanks to Arnd's comments. Also ran
6154 6161 a full spellcheck on the manual (hadn't been done in a while).
6155 6162
6156 6163 2002-04-27 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6157 6164
6158 6165 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_logstart): Fixed bug where
6159 6166 starting a log in mid-session would reset the input history list.
6160 6167
6161 6168 2002-04-26 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6162 6169
6163 6170 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.wait): Fixed bug where not
6164 6171 all files were being included in an update. Now anything in
6165 6172 UserConfig that matches [A-Za-z]*.py will go (this excludes
6166 6173 __init__.py)
6167 6174
6168 6175 2002-04-25 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6169 6176
6170 6177 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.__init__): Added __IPYTHON__
6171 6178 to __builtins__ so that any form of embedded or imported code can
6172 6179 test for being inside IPython.
6173 6180
6174 6181 * IPython/UserConfig/GnuplotMagic.py: (magic_gp_set_instance):
6175 6182 changed to GnuplotMagic because it's now an importable module,
6176 6183 this makes the name follow that of the standard Gnuplot module.
6177 6184 GnuplotMagic can now be loaded at any time in mid-session.
6178 6185
6179 6186 2002-04-24 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6180 6187
6181 6188 * IPython/numutils.py: removed SIUnits. It doesn't properly set
6182 6189 the globals (IPython has its own namespace) and the
6183 6190 PhysicalQuantity stuff is much better anyway.
6184 6191
6185 6192 * IPython/UserConfig/example-gnuplot.py (g2): Added gnuplot
6186 6193 embedding example to standard user directory for
6187 6194 distribution. Also put it in the manual.
6188 6195
6189 6196 * IPython/numutils.py (gnuplot_exec): Changed to take a gnuplot
6190 6197 instance as first argument (so it doesn't rely on some obscure
6191 6198 hidden global).
6192 6199
6193 6200 * IPython/UserConfig/ipythonrc.py: put () back in accepted
6194 6201 delimiters. While it prevents ().TAB from working, it allows
6195 6202 completions in open (... expressions. This is by far a more common
6196 6203 case.
6197 6204
6198 6205 2002-04-23 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6199 6206
6200 6207 * IPython/Extensions/InterpreterPasteInput.py: new
6201 6208 syntax-processing module for pasting lines with >>> or ... at the
6202 6209 start.
6203 6210
6204 6211 * IPython/Extensions/PhysicalQ_Interactive.py
6205 6212 (PhysicalQuantityInteractive.__int__): fixed to work with either
6206 6213 Numeric or math.
6207 6214
6208 6215 * IPython/UserConfig/ipythonrc-numeric.py: reorganized the
6209 6216 provided profiles. Now we have:
6210 6217 -math -> math module as * and cmath with its own namespace.
6211 6218 -numeric -> Numeric as *, plus gnuplot & grace
6212 6219 -physics -> same as before
6213 6220
6214 6221 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_magic): Fixed bug where
6215 6222 user-defined magics wouldn't be found by @magic if they were
6216 6223 defined as class methods. Also cleaned up the namespace search
6217 6224 logic and the string building (to use %s instead of many repeated
6218 6225 string adds).
6219 6226
6220 6227 * IPython/UserConfig/example-magic.py (magic_foo): updated example
6221 6228 of user-defined magics to operate with class methods (cleaner, in
6222 6229 line with the gnuplot code).
6223 6230
6224 6231 2002-04-22 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6225 6232
6226 6233 * setup.py: updated dependency list so that manual is updated when
6227 6234 all included files change.
6228 6235
6229 6236 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): Fixed bug which was ignoring
6230 6237 the delimiter removal option (the fix is ugly right now).
6231 6238
6232 6239 * IPython/UserConfig/ipythonrc-physics.py: simplified not to load
6233 6240 all of the math profile (quicker loading, no conflict between
6234 6241 g-9.8 and g-gnuplot).
6235 6242
6236 6243 * IPython/CrashHandler.py (CrashHandler.__call__): changed default
6237 6244 name of post-mortem files to IPython_crash_report.txt.
6238 6245
6239 6246 * Cleanup/update of the docs. Added all the new readline info and
6240 6247 formatted all lists as 'real lists'.
6241 6248
6242 6249 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): removed now-obsolete
6243 6250 tab-completion options, since the full readline parse_and_bind is
6244 6251 now accessible.
6245 6252
6246 6253 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.init_readline): Changed
6247 6254 handling of readline options. Now users can specify any string to
6248 6255 be passed to parse_and_bind(), as well as the delimiters to be
6249 6256 removed.
6250 6257 (InteractiveShell.__init__): Added __name__ to the global
6251 6258 namespace so that things like Itpl which rely on its existence
6252 6259 don't crash.
6253 6260 (InteractiveShell._prefilter): Defined the default with a _ so
6254 6261 that prefilter() is easier to override, while the default one
6255 6262 remains available.
6256 6263
6257 6264 2002-04-18 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6258 6265
6259 6266 * Added information about pdb in the docs.
6260 6267
6261 6268 2002-04-17 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6262 6269
6263 6270 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): added rc_override option to
6264 6271 allow passing config options at creation time which may override
6265 6272 anything set in the config files or command line. This is
6266 6273 particularly useful for configuring embedded instances.
6267 6274
6268 6275 2002-04-15 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6269 6276
6270 6277 * IPython/Logger.py (Logger.log): Fixed a nasty bug which could
6271 6278 crash embedded instances because of the input cache falling out of
6272 6279 sync with the output counter.
6273 6280
6274 6281 * IPython/Shell.py (IPythonShellEmbed.__init__): added a debug
6275 6282 mode which calls pdb after an uncaught exception in IPython itself.
6276 6283
6277 6284 2002-04-14 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6278 6285
6279 6286 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.showtraceback): pdb mucks up
6280 6287 readline, fix it back after each call.
6281 6288
6282 6289 * IPython/ultraTB.py (AutoFormattedTB.__text): made text a private
6283 6290 method to force all access via __call__(), which guarantees that
6284 6291 traceback references are properly deleted.
6285 6292
6286 6293 * IPython/Prompts.py (CachedOutput._display): minor fixes to
6287 6294 improve printing when pprint is in use.
6288 6295
6289 6296 2002-04-13 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6290 6297
6291 6298 * IPython/Shell.py (IPythonShellEmbed.__call__): SystemExit
6292 6299 exceptions aren't caught anymore. If the user triggers one, he
6293 6300 should know why he's doing it and it should go all the way up,
6294 6301 just like any other exception. So now @abort will fully kill the
6295 6302 embedded interpreter and the embedding code (unless that happens
6296 6303 to catch SystemExit).
6297 6304
6298 6305 * IPython/ultraTB.py (VerboseTB.__init__): added a call_pdb flag
6299 6306 and a debugger() method to invoke the interactive pdb debugger
6300 6307 after printing exception information. Also added the corresponding
6301 6308 -pdb option and @pdb magic to control this feature, and updated
6302 6309 the docs. After a suggestion from Christopher Hart
6303 6310 (hart-AT-caltech.edu).
6304 6311
6305 6312 2002-04-12 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6306 6313
6307 6314 * IPython/Shell.py (IPythonShellEmbed.__init__): modified to use
6308 6315 the exception handlers defined by the user (not the CrashHandler)
6309 6316 so that user exceptions don't trigger an ipython bug report.
6310 6317
6311 6318 * IPython/ultraTB.py (ColorTB.__init__): made the color scheme
6312 6319 configurable (it should have always been so).
6313 6320
6314 6321 2002-03-26 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6315 6322
6316 6323 * IPython/Shell.py (IPythonShellEmbed.__call__): many changes here
6317 6324 and there to fix embedding namespace issues. This should all be
6318 6325 done in a more elegant way.
6319 6326
6320 6327 2002-03-25 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6321 6328
6322 6329 * IPython/genutils.py (get_home_dir): Try to make it work under
6323 6330 win9x also.
6324 6331
6325 6332 2002-03-20 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6326 6333
6327 6334 * IPython/Shell.py (IPythonShellEmbed.__init__): leave
6328 6335 sys.displayhook untouched upon __init__.
6329 6336
6330 6337 2002-03-19 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6331 6338
6332 6339 * Released 0.2.9 (for embedding bug, basically).
6333 6340
6334 6341 * IPython/Shell.py (IPythonShellEmbed.__call__): Trap SystemExit
6335 6342 exceptions so that enclosing shell's state can be restored.
6336 6343
6337 6344 * Changed magic_gnuplot.py to magic-gnuplot.py to standardize
6338 6345 naming conventions in the .ipython/ dir.
6339 6346
6340 6347 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.init_readline): removed '-'
6341 6348 from delimiters list so filenames with - in them get expanded.
6342 6349
6343 6350 * IPython/Shell.py (IPythonShellEmbed.__call__): fixed bug with
6344 6351 sys.displayhook not being properly restored after an embedded call.
6345 6352
6346 6353 2002-03-18 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6347 6354
6348 6355 * Released 0.2.8
6349 6356
6350 6357 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.user_setup): fixed bug where
6351 6358 some files weren't being included in a -upgrade.
6352 6359 (InteractiveShell.init_readline): Added 'set show-all-if-ambiguous
6353 6360 on' so that the first tab completes.
6354 6361 (InteractiveShell.handle_magic): fixed bug with spaces around
6355 6362 quotes breaking many magic commands.
6356 6363
6357 6364 * setup.py: added note about ignoring the syntax error messages at
6358 6365 installation.
6359 6366
6360 6367 * IPython/UserConfig/magic_gnuplot.py (magic_gp): finished
6361 6368 streamlining the gnuplot interface, now there's only one magic @gp.
6362 6369
6363 6370 2002-03-17 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6364 6371
6365 6372 * IPython/UserConfig/magic_gnuplot.py: new name for the
6366 6373 example-magic_pm.py file. Much enhanced system, now with a shell
6367 6374 for communicating directly with gnuplot, one command at a time.
6368 6375
6369 6376 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_run): added option -n to prevent
6370 6377 setting __name__=='__main__'.
6371 6378
6372 6379 * IPython/UserConfig/example-magic_pm.py (magic_pm): Added
6373 6380 mini-shell for accessing gnuplot from inside ipython. Should
6374 6381 extend it later for grace access too. Inspired by Arnd's
6375 6382 suggestion.
6376 6383
6377 6384 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.handle_magic): fixed bug when
6378 6385 calling magic functions with () in their arguments. Thanks to Arnd
6379 6386 Baecker for pointing this to me.
6380 6387
6381 6388 * IPython/numutils.py (sum_flat): fixed bug. Would recurse
6382 6389 infinitely for integer or complex arrays (only worked with floats).
6383 6390
6384 6391 2002-03-16 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6385 6392
6386 6393 * setup.py: Merged setup and setup_windows into a single script
6387 6394 which properly handles things for windows users.
6388 6395
6389 6396 2002-03-15 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6390 6397
6391 6398 * Big change to the manual: now the magics are all automatically
6392 6399 documented. This information is generated from their docstrings
6393 6400 and put in a latex file included by the manual lyx file. This way
6394 6401 we get always up to date information for the magics. The manual
6395 6402 now also has proper version information, also auto-synced.
6396 6403
6397 6404 For this to work, an undocumented --magic_docstrings option was added.
6398 6405
6399 6406 2002-03-13 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6400 6407
6401 6408 * IPython/ultraTB.py (TermColors): fixed problem with dark colors
6402 6409 under CDE terminals. An explicit ;2 color reset is needed in the escapes.
6403 6410
6404 6411 2002-03-12 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6405 6412
6406 6413 * IPython/ultraTB.py (TermColors): changed color escapes again to
6407 6414 fix the (old, reintroduced) line-wrapping bug. Basically, if
6408 6415 \001..\002 aren't given in the color escapes, lines get wrapped
6409 6416 weirdly. But giving those screws up old xterms and emacs terms. So
6410 6417 I added some logic for emacs terms to be ok, but I can't identify old
6411 6418 xterms separately ($TERM=='xterm' for many terminals, like konsole).
6412 6419
6413 6420 2002-03-10 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6414 6421
6415 6422 * IPython/usage.py (__doc__): Various documentation cleanups and
6416 6423 updates, both in usage docstrings and in the manual.
6417 6424
6418 6425 * IPython/Prompts.py (CachedOutput.set_colors): cleanups for
6419 6426 handling of caching. Set minimum acceptabe value for having a
6420 6427 cache at 20 values.
6421 6428
6422 6429 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.user_setup): moved the
6423 6430 install_first_time function to a method, renamed it and added an
6424 6431 'upgrade' mode. Now people can update their config directory with
6425 6432 a simple command line switch (-upgrade, also new).
6426 6433
6427 6434 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_pfile): Made @pfile an alias to
6428 6435 @file (convenient for automagic users under Python >= 2.2).
6429 6436 Removed @files (it seemed more like a plural than an abbrev. of
6430 6437 'file show').
6431 6438
6432 6439 * IPython/iplib.py (install_first_time): Fixed crash if there were
6433 6440 backup files ('~') in .ipython/ install directory.
6434 6441
6435 6442 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): fixes for new prompt
6436 6443 system. Things look fine, but these changes are fairly
6437 6444 intrusive. Test them for a few days.
6438 6445
6439 6446 * IPython/Prompts.py (CachedOutput.__init__): Massive rewrite of
6440 6447 the prompts system. Now all in/out prompt strings are user
6441 6448 controllable. This is particularly useful for embedding, as one
6442 6449 can tag embedded instances with particular prompts.
6443 6450
6444 6451 Also removed global use of sys.ps1/2, which now allows nested
6445 6452 embeddings without any problems. Added command-line options for
6446 6453 the prompt strings.
6447 6454
6448 6455 2002-03-08 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6449 6456
6450 6457 * IPython/UserConfig/example-embed-short.py (ipshell): added
6451 6458 example file with the bare minimum code for embedding.
6452 6459
6453 6460 * IPython/Shell.py (IPythonShellEmbed.set_dummy_mode): added
6454 6461 functionality for the embeddable shell to be activated/deactivated
6455 6462 either globally or at each call.
6456 6463
6457 6464 * IPython/Prompts.py (Prompt1.auto_rewrite): Fixes the problem of
6458 6465 rewriting the prompt with '--->' for auto-inputs with proper
6459 6466 coloring. Now the previous UGLY hack in handle_auto() is gone, and
6460 6467 this is handled by the prompts class itself, as it should.
6461 6468
6462 6469 2002-03-05 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6463 6470
6464 6471 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_logstart): Changed @log to
6465 6472 @logstart to avoid name clashes with the math log function.
6466 6473
6467 6474 * Big updates to X/Emacs section of the manual.
6468 6475
6469 6476 * Removed ipython_emacs. Milan explained to me how to pass
6470 6477 arguments to ipython through Emacs. Some day I'm going to end up
6471 6478 learning some lisp...
6472 6479
6473 6480 2002-03-04 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6474 6481
6475 6482 * IPython/ipython_emacs: Created script to be used as the
6476 6483 py-python-command Emacs variable so we can pass IPython
6477 6484 parameters. I can't figure out how to tell Emacs directly to pass
6478 6485 parameters to IPython, so a dummy shell script will do it.
6479 6486
6480 6487 Other enhancements made for things to work better under Emacs'
6481 6488 various types of terminals. Many thanks to Milan Zamazal
6482 6489 <pdm-AT-zamazal.org> for all the suggestions and pointers.
6483 6490
6484 6491 2002-03-01 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6485 6492
6486 6493 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): added a --readline! option so
6487 6494 that loading of readline is now optional. This gives better
6488 6495 control to emacs users.
6489 6496
6490 6497 * IPython/ultraTB.py (__date__): Modified color escape sequences
6491 6498 and now things work fine under xterm and in Emacs' term buffers
6492 6499 (though not shell ones). Well, in emacs you get colors, but all
6493 6500 seem to be 'light' colors (no difference between dark and light
6494 6501 ones). But the garbage chars are gone, and also in xterms. It
6495 6502 seems that now I'm using 'cleaner' ansi sequences.
6496 6503
6497 6504 2002-02-21 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6498 6505
6499 6506 * Released 0.2.7 (mainly to publish the scoping fix).
6500 6507
6501 6508 * IPython/Logger.py (Logger.logstate): added. A corresponding
6502 6509 @logstate magic was created.
6503 6510
6504 6511 * IPython/Magic.py: fixed nested scoping problem under Python
6505 6512 2.1.x (automagic wasn't working).
6506 6513
6507 6514 2002-02-20 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6508 6515
6509 6516 * Released 0.2.6.
6510 6517
6511 6518 * IPython/OutputTrap.py (OutputTrap.__init__): added a 'quiet'
6512 6519 option so that logs can come out without any headers at all.
6513 6520
6514 6521 * IPython/UserConfig/ipythonrc-scipy.py: created a profile for
6515 6522 SciPy.
6516 6523
6517 6524 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.embed_mainloop): Changed so
6518 6525 that embedded IPython calls don't require vars() to be explicitly
6519 6526 passed. Now they are extracted from the caller's frame (code
6520 6527 snatched from Eric Jones' weave). Added better documentation to
6521 6528 the section on embedding and the example file.
6522 6529
6523 6530 * IPython/genutils.py (page): Changed so that under emacs, it just
6524 6531 prints the string. You can then page up and down in the emacs
6525 6532 buffer itself. This is how the builtin help() works.
6526 6533
6527 6534 * IPython/Prompts.py (CachedOutput.__call__): Fixed issue with
6528 6535 macro scoping: macros need to be executed in the user's namespace
6529 6536 to work as if they had been typed by the user.
6530 6537
6531 6538 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_macro): Changed macros so they
6532 6539 execute automatically (no need to type 'exec...'). They then
6533 6540 behave like 'true macros'. The printing system was also modified
6534 6541 for this to work.
6535 6542
6536 6543 2002-02-19 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6537 6544
6538 6545 * IPython/genutils.py (page_file): new function for paging files
6539 6546 in an OS-independent way. Also necessary for file viewing to work
6540 6547 well inside Emacs buffers.
6541 6548 (page): Added checks for being in an emacs buffer.
6542 6549 (page): fixed bug for Windows ($TERM isn't set in Windows). Fixed
6543 6550 same bug in iplib.
6544 6551
6545 6552 2002-02-18 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6546 6553
6547 6554 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.init_readline): modified use
6548 6555 of readline so that IPython can work inside an Emacs buffer.
6549 6556
6550 6557 * IPython/ultraTB.py (AutoFormattedTB.__call__): some fixes to
6551 6558 method signatures (they weren't really bugs, but it looks cleaner
6552 6559 and keeps PyChecker happy).
6553 6560
6554 6561 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): added hooks Struct to __IP
6555 6562 for implementing various user-defined hooks. Currently only
6556 6563 display is done.
6557 6564
6558 6565 * IPython/Prompts.py (CachedOutput._display): changed display
6559 6566 functions so that they can be dynamically changed by users easily.
6560 6567
6561 6568 * IPython/Extensions/numeric_formats.py (num_display): added an
6562 6569 extension for printing NumPy arrays in flexible manners. It
6563 6570 doesn't do anything yet, but all the structure is in
6564 6571 place. Ultimately the plan is to implement output format control
6565 6572 like in Octave.
6566 6573
6567 6574 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.lsmagic): changed so that bound magic
6568 6575 methods are found at run-time by all the automatic machinery.
6569 6576
6570 6577 2002-02-17 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6571 6578
6572 6579 * setup_Windows.py (make_shortcut): documented. Cleaned up the
6573 6580 whole file a little.
6574 6581
6575 6582 * ToDo: closed this document. Now there's a new_design.lyx
6576 6583 document for all new ideas. Added making a pdf of it for the
6577 6584 end-user distro.
6578 6585
6579 6586 * IPython/Logger.py (Logger.switch_log): Created this to replace
6580 6587 logon() and logoff(). It also fixes a nasty crash reported by
6581 6588 Philip Hisley <compsys-AT-starpower.net>. Many thanks to him.
6582 6589
6583 6590 * IPython/iplib.py (complete): got auto-completion to work with
6584 6591 automagic (I had wanted this for a long time).
6585 6592
6586 6593 * IPython/Magic.py (Magic.magic_files): Added @files as an alias
6587 6594 to @file, since file() is now a builtin and clashes with automagic
6588 6595 for @file.
6589 6596
6590 6597 * Made some new files: Prompts, CrashHandler, Magic, Logger. All
6591 6598 of this was previously in iplib, which had grown to more than 2000
6592 6599 lines, way too long. No new functionality, but it makes managing
6593 6600 the code a bit easier.
6594 6601
6595 6602 * IPython/iplib.py (IPythonCrashHandler.__call__): Added version
6596 6603 information to crash reports.
6597 6604
6598 6605 2002-02-12 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6599 6606
6600 6607 * Released 0.2.5.
6601 6608
6602 6609 2002-02-11 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6603 6610
6604 6611 * Wrote a relatively complete Windows installer. It puts
6605 6612 everything in place, creates Start Menu entries and fixes the
6606 6613 color issues. Nothing fancy, but it works.
6607 6614
6608 6615 2002-02-10 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6609 6616
6610 6617 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.safe_execfile): added an
6611 6618 os.path.expanduser() call so that we can type @run ~/myfile.py and
6612 6619 have thigs work as expected.
6613 6620
6614 6621 * IPython/genutils.py (page): fixed exception handling so things
6615 6622 work both in Unix and Windows correctly. Quitting a pager triggers
6616 6623 an IOError/broken pipe in Unix, and in windows not finding a pager
6617 6624 is also an IOError, so I had to actually look at the return value
6618 6625 of the exception, not just the exception itself. Should be ok now.
6619 6626
6620 6627 * IPython/ultraTB.py (ColorSchemeTable.set_active_scheme):
6621 6628 modified to allow case-insensitive color scheme changes.
6622 6629
6623 6630 2002-02-09 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6624 6631
6625 6632 * IPython/genutils.py (native_line_ends): new function to leave
6626 6633 user config files with os-native line-endings.
6627 6634
6628 6635 * README and manual updates.
6629 6636
6630 6637 * IPython/genutils.py: fixed unicode bug: use types.StringTypes
6631 6638 instead of StringType to catch Unicode strings.
6632 6639
6633 6640 * IPython/genutils.py (filefind): fixed bug for paths with
6634 6641 embedded spaces (very common in Windows).
6635 6642
6636 6643 * IPython/ipmaker.py (make_IPython): added a '.ini' to the rc
6637 6644 files under Windows, so that they get automatically associated
6638 6645 with a text editor. Windows makes it a pain to handle
6639 6646 extension-less files.
6640 6647
6641 6648 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.init_readline): Made the
6642 6649 warning about readline only occur for Posix. In Windows there's no
6643 6650 way to get readline, so why bother with the warning.
6644 6651
6645 6652 * IPython/Struct.py (Struct.__str__): fixed to use self.__dict__
6646 6653 for __str__ instead of dir(self), since dir() changed in 2.2.
6647 6654
6648 6655 * Ported to Windows! Tested on XP, I suspect it should work fine
6649 6656 on NT/2000, but I don't think it will work on 98 et al. That
6650 6657 series of Windows is such a piece of junk anyway that I won't try
6651 6658 porting it there. The XP port was straightforward, showed a few
6652 6659 bugs here and there (fixed all), in particular some string
6653 6660 handling stuff which required considering Unicode strings (which
6654 6661 Windows uses). This is good, but hasn't been too tested :) No
6655 6662 fancy installer yet, I'll put a note in the manual so people at
6656 6663 least make manually a shortcut.
6657 6664
6658 6665 * IPython/iplib.py (Magic.magic_colors): Unified the color options
6659 6666 into a single one, "colors". This now controls both prompt and
6660 6667 exception color schemes, and can be changed both at startup
6661 6668 (either via command-line switches or via ipythonrc files) and at
6662 6669 runtime, with @colors.
6663 6670 (Magic.magic_run): renamed @prun to @run and removed the old
6664 6671 @run. The two were too similar to warrant keeping both.
6665 6672
6666 6673 2002-02-03 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6667 6674
6668 6675 * IPython/iplib.py (install_first_time): Added comment on how to
6669 6676 configure the color options for first-time users. Put a <return>
6670 6677 request at the end so that small-terminal users get a chance to
6671 6678 read the startup info.
6672 6679
6673 6680 2002-01-23 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6674 6681
6675 6682 * IPython/iplib.py (CachedOutput.update): Changed output memory
6676 6683 variable names from _o,_oo,_ooo,_o<n> to simply _,__,___,_<n>. For
6677 6684 input history we still use _i. Did this b/c these variable are
6678 6685 very commonly used in interactive work, so the less we need to
6679 6686 type the better off we are.
6680 6687 (Magic.magic_prun): updated @prun to better handle the namespaces
6681 6688 the file will run in, including a fix for __name__ not being set
6682 6689 before.
6683 6690
6684 6691 2002-01-20 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6685 6692
6686 6693 * IPython/ultraTB.py (VerboseTB.linereader): Fixed printing of
6687 6694 extra garbage for Python 2.2. Need to look more carefully into
6688 6695 this later.
6689 6696
6690 6697 2002-01-19 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6691 6698
6692 6699 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.showtraceback): fixed to
6693 6700 display SyntaxError exceptions properly formatted when they occur
6694 6701 (they can be triggered by imported code).
6695 6702
6696 6703 2002-01-18 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6697 6704
6698 6705 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.safe_execfile): now
6699 6706 SyntaxError exceptions are reported nicely formatted, instead of
6700 6707 spitting out only offset information as before.
6701 6708 (Magic.magic_prun): Added the @prun function for executing
6702 6709 programs with command line args inside IPython.
6703 6710
6704 6711 2002-01-16 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6705 6712
6706 6713 * IPython/iplib.py (Magic.magic_hist): Changed @hist and @dhist
6707 6714 to *not* include the last item given in a range. This brings their
6708 6715 behavior in line with Python's slicing:
6709 6716 a[n1:n2] -> a[n1]...a[n2-1]
6710 6717 It may be a bit less convenient, but I prefer to stick to Python's
6711 6718 conventions *everywhere*, so users never have to wonder.
6712 6719 (Magic.magic_macro): Added @macro function to ease the creation of
6713 6720 macros.
6714 6721
6715 6722 2002-01-05 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6716 6723
6717 6724 * Released 0.2.4.
6718 6725
6719 6726 * IPython/iplib.py (Magic.magic_pdef):
6720 6727 (InteractiveShell.safe_execfile): report magic lines and error
6721 6728 lines without line numbers so one can easily copy/paste them for
6722 6729 re-execution.
6723 6730
6724 6731 * Updated manual with recent changes.
6725 6732
6726 6733 * IPython/iplib.py (Magic.magic_oinfo): added constructor
6727 6734 docstring printing when class? is called. Very handy for knowing
6728 6735 how to create class instances (as long as __init__ is well
6729 6736 documented, of course :)
6730 6737 (Magic.magic_doc): print both class and constructor docstrings.
6731 6738 (Magic.magic_pdef): give constructor info if passed a class and
6732 6739 __call__ info for callable object instances.
6733 6740
6734 6741 2002-01-04 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6735 6742
6736 6743 * Made deep_reload() off by default. It doesn't always work
6737 6744 exactly as intended, so it's probably safer to have it off. It's
6738 6745 still available as dreload() anyway, so nothing is lost.
6739 6746
6740 6747 2002-01-02 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6741 6748
6742 6749 * Released 0.2.3 (contacted R.Singh at CU about biopython course,
6743 6750 so I wanted an updated release).
6744 6751
6745 6752 2001-12-27 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6746 6753
6747 6754 * IPython/iplib.py (InteractiveShell.interact): Added the original
6748 6755 code from 'code.py' for this module in order to change the
6749 6756 handling of a KeyboardInterrupt. This was necessary b/c otherwise
6750 6757 the history cache would break when the user hit Ctrl-C, and
6751 6758 interact() offers no way to add any hooks to it.
6752 6759
6753 6760 2001-12-23 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6754 6761
6755 6762 * setup.py: added check for 'MANIFEST' before trying to remove
6756 6763 it. Thanks to Sean Reifschneider.
6757 6764
6758 6765 2001-12-22 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6759 6766
6760 6767 * Released 0.2.2.
6761 6768
6762 6769 * Finished (reasonably) writing the manual. Later will add the
6763 6770 python-standard navigation stylesheets, but for the time being
6764 6771 it's fairly complete. Distribution will include html and pdf
6765 6772 versions.
6766 6773
6767 6774 * Bugfix: '.' wasn't being added to sys.path. Thanks to Prabhu
6768 6775 (MayaVi author).
6769 6776
6770 6777 2001-12-21 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6771 6778
6772 6779 * Released 0.2.1. Barring any nasty bugs, this is it as far as a
6773 6780 good public release, I think (with the manual and the distutils
6774 6781 installer). The manual can use some work, but that can go
6775 6782 slowly. Otherwise I think it's quite nice for end users. Next
6776 6783 summer, rewrite the guts of it...
6777 6784
6778 6785 * Changed format of ipythonrc files to use whitespace as the
6779 6786 separator instead of an explicit '='. Cleaner.
6780 6787
6781 6788 2001-12-20 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6782 6789
6783 6790 * Started a manual in LyX. For now it's just a quick merge of the
6784 6791 various internal docstrings and READMEs. Later it may grow into a
6785 6792 nice, full-blown manual.
6786 6793
6787 6794 * Set up a distutils based installer. Installation should now be
6788 6795 trivially simple for end-users.
6789 6796
6790 6797 2001-12-11 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6791 6798
6792 6799 * Released 0.2.0. First public release, announced it at
6793 6800 comp.lang.python. From now on, just bugfixes...
6794 6801
6795 6802 * Went through all the files, set copyright/license notices and
6796 6803 cleaned up things. Ready for release.
6797 6804
6798 6805 2001-12-10 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6799 6806
6800 6807 * Changed the first-time installer not to use tarfiles. It's more
6801 6808 robust now and less unix-dependent. Also makes it easier for
6802 6809 people to later upgrade versions.
6803 6810
6804 6811 * Changed @exit to @abort to reflect the fact that it's pretty
6805 6812 brutal (a sys.exit()). The difference between @abort and Ctrl-D
6806 6813 becomes significant only when IPyhton is embedded: in that case,
6807 6814 C-D closes IPython only, but @abort kills the enclosing program
6808 6815 too (unless it had called IPython inside a try catching
6809 6816 SystemExit).
6810 6817
6811 6818 * Created Shell module which exposes the actuall IPython Shell
6812 6819 classes, currently the normal and the embeddable one. This at
6813 6820 least offers a stable interface we won't need to change when
6814 6821 (later) the internals are rewritten. That rewrite will be confined
6815 6822 to iplib and ipmaker, but the Shell interface should remain as is.
6816 6823
6817 6824 * Added embed module which offers an embeddable IPShell object,
6818 6825 useful to fire up IPython *inside* a running program. Great for
6819 6826 debugging or dynamical data analysis.
6820 6827
6821 6828 2001-12-08 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6822 6829
6823 6830 * Fixed small bug preventing seeing info from methods of defined
6824 6831 objects (incorrect namespace in _ofind()).
6825 6832
6826 6833 * Documentation cleanup. Moved the main usage docstrings to a
6827 6834 separate file, usage.py (cleaner to maintain, and hopefully in the
6828 6835 future some perlpod-like way of producing interactive, man and
6829 6836 html docs out of it will be found).
6830 6837
6831 6838 * Added @profile to see your profile at any time.
6832 6839
6833 6840 * Added @p as an alias for 'print'. It's especially convenient if
6834 6841 using automagic ('p x' prints x).
6835 6842
6836 6843 * Small cleanups and fixes after a pychecker run.
6837 6844
6838 6845 * Changed the @cd command to handle @cd - and @cd -<n> for
6839 6846 visiting any directory in _dh.
6840 6847
6841 6848 * Introduced _dh, a history of visited directories. @dhist prints
6842 6849 it out with numbers.
6843 6850
6844 6851 2001-12-07 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6845 6852
6846 6853 * Released 0.1.22
6847 6854
6848 6855 * Made initialization a bit more robust against invalid color
6849 6856 options in user input (exit, not traceback-crash).
6850 6857
6851 6858 * Changed the bug crash reporter to write the report only in the
6852 6859 user's .ipython directory. That way IPython won't litter people's
6853 6860 hard disks with crash files all over the place. Also print on
6854 6861 screen the necessary mail command.
6855 6862
6856 6863 * With the new ultraTB, implemented LightBG color scheme for light
6857 6864 background terminals. A lot of people like white backgrounds, so I
6858 6865 guess we should at least give them something readable.
6859 6866
6860 6867 2001-12-06 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6861 6868
6862 6869 * Modified the structure of ultraTB. Now there's a proper class
6863 6870 for tables of color schemes which allow adding schemes easily and
6864 6871 switching the active scheme without creating a new instance every
6865 6872 time (which was ridiculous). The syntax for creating new schemes
6866 6873 is also cleaner. I think ultraTB is finally done, with a clean
6867 6874 class structure. Names are also much cleaner (now there's proper
6868 6875 color tables, no need for every variable to also have 'color' in
6869 6876 its name).
6870 6877
6871 6878 * Broke down genutils into separate files. Now genutils only
6872 6879 contains utility functions, and classes have been moved to their
6873 6880 own files (they had enough independent functionality to warrant
6874 6881 it): ConfigLoader, OutputTrap, Struct.
6875 6882
6876 6883 2001-12-05 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6877 6884
6878 6885 * IPython turns 21! Released version 0.1.21, as a candidate for
6879 6886 public consumption. If all goes well, release in a few days.
6880 6887
6881 6888 * Fixed path bug (files in Extensions/ directory wouldn't be found
6882 6889 unless IPython/ was explicitly in sys.path).
6883 6890
6884 6891 * Extended the FlexCompleter class as MagicCompleter to allow
6885 6892 completion of @-starting lines.
6886 6893
6887 6894 * Created __release__.py file as a central repository for release
6888 6895 info that other files can read from.
6889 6896
6890 6897 * Fixed small bug in logging: when logging was turned on in
6891 6898 mid-session, old lines with special meanings (!@?) were being
6892 6899 logged without the prepended comment, which is necessary since
6893 6900 they are not truly valid python syntax. This should make session
6894 6901 restores produce less errors.
6895 6902
6896 6903 * The namespace cleanup forced me to make a FlexCompleter class
6897 6904 which is nothing but a ripoff of rlcompleter, but with selectable
6898 6905 namespace (rlcompleter only works in __main__.__dict__). I'll try
6899 6906 to submit a note to the authors to see if this change can be
6900 6907 incorporated in future rlcompleter releases (Dec.6: done)
6901 6908
6902 6909 * More fixes to namespace handling. It was a mess! Now all
6903 6910 explicit references to __main__.__dict__ are gone (except when
6904 6911 really needed) and everything is handled through the namespace
6905 6912 dicts in the IPython instance. We seem to be getting somewhere
6906 6913 with this, finally...
6907 6914
6908 6915 * Small documentation updates.
6909 6916
6910 6917 * Created the Extensions directory under IPython (with an
6911 6918 __init__.py). Put the PhysicalQ stuff there. This directory should
6912 6919 be used for all special-purpose extensions.
6913 6920
6914 6921 * File renaming:
6915 6922 ipythonlib --> ipmaker
6916 6923 ipplib --> iplib
6917 6924 This makes a bit more sense in terms of what these files actually do.
6918 6925
6919 6926 * Moved all the classes and functions in ipythonlib to ipplib, so
6920 6927 now ipythonlib only has make_IPython(). This will ease up its
6921 6928 splitting in smaller functional chunks later.
6922 6929
6923 6930 * Cleaned up (done, I think) output of @whos. Better column
6924 6931 formatting, and now shows str(var) for as much as it can, which is
6925 6932 typically what one gets with a 'print var'.
6926 6933
6927 6934 2001-12-04 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6928 6935
6929 6936 * Fixed namespace problems. Now builtin/IPyhton/user names get
6930 6937 properly reported in their namespace. Internal namespace handling
6931 6938 is finally getting decent (not perfect yet, but much better than
6932 6939 the ad-hoc mess we had).
6933 6940
6934 6941 * Removed -exit option. If people just want to run a python
6935 6942 script, that's what the normal interpreter is for. Less
6936 6943 unnecessary options, less chances for bugs.
6937 6944
6938 6945 * Added a crash handler which generates a complete post-mortem if
6939 6946 IPython crashes. This will help a lot in tracking bugs down the
6940 6947 road.
6941 6948
6942 6949 * Fixed nasty bug in auto-evaluation part of prefilter(). Names
6943 6950 which were boud to functions being reassigned would bypass the
6944 6951 logger, breaking the sync of _il with the prompt counter. This
6945 6952 would then crash IPython later when a new line was logged.
6946 6953
6947 6954 2001-12-02 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6948 6955
6949 6956 * Made IPython a package. This means people don't have to clutter
6950 6957 their sys.path with yet another directory. Changed the INSTALL
6951 6958 file accordingly.
6952 6959
6953 6960 * Cleaned up the output of @who_ls, @who and @whos. @who_ls now
6954 6961 sorts its output (so @who shows it sorted) and @whos formats the
6955 6962 table according to the width of the first column. Nicer, easier to
6956 6963 read. Todo: write a generic table_format() which takes a list of
6957 6964 lists and prints it nicely formatted, with optional row/column
6958 6965 separators and proper padding and justification.
6959 6966
6960 6967 * Released 0.1.20
6961 6968
6962 6969 * Fixed bug in @log which would reverse the inputcache list (a
6963 6970 copy operation was missing).
6964 6971
6965 6972 * Code cleanup. @config was changed to use page(). Better, since
6966 6973 its output is always quite long.
6967 6974
6968 6975 * Itpl is back as a dependency. I was having too many problems
6969 6976 getting the parametric aliases to work reliably, and it's just
6970 6977 easier to code weird string operations with it than playing %()s
6971 6978 games. It's only ~6k, so I don't think it's too big a deal.
6972 6979
6973 6980 * Found (and fixed) a very nasty bug with history. !lines weren't
6974 6981 getting cached, and the out of sync caches would crash
6975 6982 IPython. Fixed it by reorganizing the prefilter/handlers/logger
6976 6983 division of labor a bit better. Bug fixed, cleaner structure.
6977 6984
6978 6985 2001-12-01 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6979 6986
6980 6987 * Released 0.1.19
6981 6988
6982 6989 * Added option -n to @hist to prevent line number printing. Much
6983 6990 easier to copy/paste code this way.
6984 6991
6985 6992 * Created global _il to hold the input list. Allows easy
6986 6993 re-execution of blocks of code by slicing it (inspired by Janko's
6987 6994 comment on 'macros').
6988 6995
6989 6996 * Small fixes and doc updates.
6990 6997
6991 6998 * Rewrote @history function (was @h). Renamed it to @hist, @h is
6992 6999 much too fragile with automagic. Handles properly multi-line
6993 7000 statements and takes parameters.
6994 7001
6995 7002 2001-11-30 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
6996 7003
6997 7004 * Version 0.1.18 released.
6998 7005
6999 7006 * Fixed nasty namespace bug in initial module imports.
7000 7007
7001 7008 * Added copyright/license notes to all code files (except
7002 7009 DPyGetOpt). For the time being, LGPL. That could change.
7003 7010
7004 7011 * Rewrote a much nicer README, updated INSTALL, cleaned up
7005 7012 ipythonrc-* samples.
7006 7013
7007 7014 * Overall code/documentation cleanup. Basically ready for
7008 7015 release. Only remaining thing: licence decision (LGPL?).
7009 7016
7010 7017 * Converted load_config to a class, ConfigLoader. Now recursion
7011 7018 control is better organized. Doesn't include the same file twice.
7012 7019
7013 7020 2001-11-29 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
7014 7021
7015 7022 * Got input history working. Changed output history variables from
7016 7023 _p to _o so that _i is for input and _o for output. Just cleaner
7017 7024 convention.
7018 7025
7019 7026 * Implemented parametric aliases. This pretty much allows the
7020 7027 alias system to offer full-blown shell convenience, I think.
7021 7028
7022 7029 * Version 0.1.17 released, 0.1.18 opened.
7023 7030
7024 7031 * dot_ipython/ipythonrc (alias): added documentation.
7025 7032 (xcolor): Fixed small bug (xcolors -> xcolor)
7026 7033
7027 7034 * Changed the alias system. Now alias is a magic command to define
7028 7035 aliases just like the shell. Rationale: the builtin magics should
7029 7036 be there for things deeply connected to IPython's
7030 7037 architecture. And this is a much lighter system for what I think
7031 7038 is the really important feature: allowing users to define quickly
7032 7039 magics that will do shell things for them, so they can customize
7033 7040 IPython easily to match their work habits. If someone is really
7034 7041 desperate to have another name for a builtin alias, they can
7035 7042 always use __IP.magic_newname = __IP.magic_oldname. Hackish but
7036 7043 works.
7037 7044
7038 7045 2001-11-28 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
7039 7046
7040 7047 * Changed @file so that it opens the source file at the proper
7041 7048 line. Since it uses less, if your EDITOR environment is
7042 7049 configured, typing v will immediately open your editor of choice
7043 7050 right at the line where the object is defined. Not as quick as
7044 7051 having a direct @edit command, but for all intents and purposes it
7045 7052 works. And I don't have to worry about writing @edit to deal with
7046 7053 all the editors, less does that.
7047 7054
7048 7055 * Version 0.1.16 released, 0.1.17 opened.
7049 7056
7050 7057 * Fixed some nasty bugs in the page/page_dumb combo that could
7051 7058 crash IPython.
7052 7059
7053 7060 2001-11-27 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
7054 7061
7055 7062 * Version 0.1.15 released, 0.1.16 opened.
7056 7063
7057 7064 * Finally got ? and ?? to work for undefined things: now it's
7058 7065 possible to type {}.get? and get information about the get method
7059 7066 of dicts, or os.path? even if only os is defined (so technically
7060 7067 os.path isn't). Works at any level. For example, after import os,
7061 7068 os?, os.path?, os.path.abspath? all work. This is great, took some
7062 7069 work in _ofind.
7063 7070
7064 7071 * Fixed more bugs with logging. The sanest way to do it was to add
7065 7072 to @log a 'mode' parameter. Killed two in one shot (this mode
7066 7073 option was a request of Janko's). I think it's finally clean
7067 7074 (famous last words).
7068 7075
7069 7076 * Added a page_dumb() pager which does a decent job of paging on
7070 7077 screen, if better things (like less) aren't available. One less
7071 7078 unix dependency (someday maybe somebody will port this to
7072 7079 windows).
7073 7080
7074 7081 * Fixed problem in magic_log: would lock of logging out if log
7075 7082 creation failed (because it would still think it had succeeded).
7076 7083
7077 7084 * Improved the page() function using curses to auto-detect screen
7078 7085 size. Now it can make a much better decision on whether to print
7079 7086 or page a string. Option screen_length was modified: a value 0
7080 7087 means auto-detect, and that's the default now.
7081 7088
7082 7089 * Version 0.1.14 released, 0.1.15 opened. I think this is ready to
7083 7090 go out. I'll test it for a few days, then talk to Janko about
7084 7091 licences and announce it.
7085 7092
7086 7093 * Fixed the length of the auto-generated ---> prompt which appears
7087 7094 for auto-parens and auto-quotes. Getting this right isn't trivial,
7088 7095 with all the color escapes, different prompt types and optional
7089 7096 separators. But it seems to be working in all the combinations.
7090 7097
7091 7098 2001-11-26 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
7092 7099
7093 7100 * Wrote a regexp filter to get option types from the option names
7094 7101 string. This eliminates the need to manually keep two duplicate
7095 7102 lists.
7096 7103
7097 7104 * Removed the unneeded check_option_names. Now options are handled
7098 7105 in a much saner manner and it's easy to visually check that things
7099 7106 are ok.
7100 7107
7101 7108 * Updated version numbers on all files I modified to carry a
7102 7109 notice so Janko and Nathan have clear version markers.
7103 7110
7104 7111 * Updated docstring for ultraTB with my changes. I should send
7105 7112 this to Nathan.
7106 7113
7107 7114 * Lots of small fixes. Ran everything through pychecker again.
7108 7115
7109 7116 * Made loading of deep_reload an cmd line option. If it's not too
7110 7117 kosher, now people can just disable it. With -nodeep_reload it's
7111 7118 still available as dreload(), it just won't overwrite reload().
7112 7119
7113 7120 * Moved many options to the no| form (-opt and -noopt
7114 7121 accepted). Cleaner.
7115 7122
7116 7123 * Changed magic_log so that if called with no parameters, it uses
7117 7124 'rotate' mode. That way auto-generated logs aren't automatically
7118 7125 over-written. For normal logs, now a backup is made if it exists
7119 7126 (only 1 level of backups). A new 'backup' mode was added to the
7120 7127 Logger class to support this. This was a request by Janko.
7121 7128
7122 7129 * Added @logoff/@logon to stop/restart an active log.
7123 7130
7124 7131 * Fixed a lot of bugs in log saving/replay. It was pretty
7125 7132 broken. Now special lines (!@,/) appear properly in the command
7126 7133 history after a log replay.
7127 7134
7128 7135 * Tried and failed to implement full session saving via pickle. My
7129 7136 idea was to pickle __main__.__dict__, but modules can't be
7130 7137 pickled. This would be a better alternative to replaying logs, but
7131 7138 seems quite tricky to get to work. Changed -session to be called
7132 7139 -logplay, which more accurately reflects what it does. And if we
7133 7140 ever get real session saving working, -session is now available.
7134 7141
7135 7142 * Implemented color schemes for prompts also. As for tracebacks,
7136 7143 currently only NoColor and Linux are supported. But now the
7137 7144 infrastructure is in place, based on a generic ColorScheme
7138 7145 class. So writing and activating new schemes both for the prompts
7139 7146 and the tracebacks should be straightforward.
7140 7147
7141 7148 * Version 0.1.13 released, 0.1.14 opened.
7142 7149
7143 7150 * Changed handling of options for output cache. Now counter is
7144 7151 hardwired starting at 1 and one specifies the maximum number of
7145 7152 entries *in the outcache* (not the max prompt counter). This is
7146 7153 much better, since many statements won't increase the cache
7147 7154 count. It also eliminated some confusing options, now there's only
7148 7155 one: cache_size.
7149 7156
7150 7157 * Added 'alias' magic function and magic_alias option in the
7151 7158 ipythonrc file. Now the user can easily define whatever names he
7152 7159 wants for the magic functions without having to play weird
7153 7160 namespace games. This gives IPython a real shell-like feel.
7154 7161
7155 7162 * Fixed doc/?/?? for magics. Now all work, in all forms (explicit
7156 7163 @ or not).
7157 7164
7158 7165 This was one of the last remaining 'visible' bugs (that I know
7159 7166 of). I think if I can clean up the session loading so it works
7160 7167 100% I'll release a 0.2.0 version on c.p.l (talk to Janko first
7161 7168 about licensing).
7162 7169
7163 7170 2001-11-25 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
7164 7171
7165 7172 * Rewrote somewhat oinfo (?/??). Nicer, now uses page() and
7166 7173 there's a cleaner distinction between what ? and ?? show.
7167 7174
7168 7175 * Added screen_length option. Now the user can define his own
7169 7176 screen size for page() operations.
7170 7177
7171 7178 * Implemented magic shell-like functions with automatic code
7172 7179 generation. Now adding another function is just a matter of adding
7173 7180 an entry to a dict, and the function is dynamically generated at
7174 7181 run-time. Python has some really cool features!
7175 7182
7176 7183 * Renamed many options to cleanup conventions a little. Now all
7177 7184 are lowercase, and only underscores where needed. Also in the code
7178 7185 option name tables are clearer.
7179 7186
7180 7187 * Changed prompts a little. Now input is 'In [n]:' instead of
7181 7188 'In[n]:='. This allows it the numbers to be aligned with the
7182 7189 Out[n] numbers, and removes usage of ':=' which doesn't exist in
7183 7190 Python (it was a Mathematica thing). The '...' continuation prompt
7184 7191 was also changed a little to align better.
7185 7192
7186 7193 * Fixed bug when flushing output cache. Not all _p<n> variables
7187 7194 exist, so their deletion needs to be wrapped in a try:
7188 7195
7189 7196 * Figured out how to properly use inspect.formatargspec() (it
7190 7197 requires the args preceded by *). So I removed all the code from
7191 7198 _get_pdef in Magic, which was just replicating that.
7192 7199
7193 7200 * Added test to prefilter to allow redefining magic function names
7194 7201 as variables. This is ok, since the @ form is always available,
7195 7202 but whe should allow the user to define a variable called 'ls' if
7196 7203 he needs it.
7197 7204
7198 7205 * Moved the ToDo information from README into a separate ToDo.
7199 7206
7200 7207 * General code cleanup and small bugfixes. I think it's close to a
7201 7208 state where it can be released, obviously with a big 'beta'
7202 7209 warning on it.
7203 7210
7204 7211 * Got the magic function split to work. Now all magics are defined
7205 7212 in a separate class. It just organizes things a bit, and now
7206 7213 Xemacs behaves nicer (it was choking on InteractiveShell b/c it
7207 7214 was too long).
7208 7215
7209 7216 * Changed @clear to @reset to avoid potential confusions with
7210 7217 the shell command clear. Also renamed @cl to @clear, which does
7211 7218 exactly what people expect it to from their shell experience.
7212 7219
7213 7220 Added a check to the @reset command (since it's so
7214 7221 destructive, it's probably a good idea to ask for confirmation).
7215 7222 But now reset only works for full namespace resetting. Since the
7216 7223 del keyword is already there for deleting a few specific
7217 7224 variables, I don't see the point of having a redundant magic
7218 7225 function for the same task.
7219 7226
7220 7227 2001-11-24 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
7221 7228
7222 7229 * Updated the builtin docs (esp. the ? ones).
7223 7230
7224 7231 * Ran all the code through pychecker. Not terribly impressed with
7225 7232 it: lots of spurious warnings and didn't really find anything of
7226 7233 substance (just a few modules being imported and not used).
7227 7234
7228 7235 * Implemented the new ultraTB functionality into IPython. New
7229 7236 option: xcolors. This chooses color scheme. xmode now only selects
7230 7237 between Plain and Verbose. Better orthogonality.
7231 7238
7232 7239 * Large rewrite of ultraTB. Much cleaner now, with a separation of
7233 7240 mode and color scheme for the exception handlers. Now it's
7234 7241 possible to have the verbose traceback with no coloring.
7235 7242
7236 7243 2001-11-23 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
7237 7244
7238 7245 * Version 0.1.12 released, 0.1.13 opened.
7239 7246
7240 7247 * Removed option to set auto-quote and auto-paren escapes by
7241 7248 user. The chances of breaking valid syntax are just too high. If
7242 7249 someone *really* wants, they can always dig into the code.
7243 7250
7244 7251 * Made prompt separators configurable.
7245 7252
7246 7253 2001-11-22 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
7247 7254
7248 7255 * Small bugfixes in many places.
7249 7256
7250 7257 * Removed the MyCompleter class from ipplib. It seemed redundant
7251 7258 with the C-p,C-n history search functionality. Less code to
7252 7259 maintain.
7253 7260
7254 7261 * Moved all the original ipython.py code into ipythonlib.py. Right
7255 7262 now it's just one big dump into a function called make_IPython, so
7256 7263 no real modularity has been gained. But at least it makes the
7257 7264 wrapper script tiny, and since ipythonlib is a module, it gets
7258 7265 compiled and startup is much faster.
7259 7266
7260 7267 This is a reasobably 'deep' change, so we should test it for a
7261 7268 while without messing too much more with the code.
7262 7269
7263 7270 2001-11-21 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
7264 7271
7265 7272 * Version 0.1.11 released, 0.1.12 opened for further work.
7266 7273
7267 7274 * Removed dependency on Itpl. It was only needed in one place. It
7268 7275 would be nice if this became part of python, though. It makes life
7269 7276 *a lot* easier in some cases.
7270 7277
7271 7278 * Simplified the prefilter code a bit. Now all handlers are
7272 7279 expected to explicitly return a value (at least a blank string).
7273 7280
7274 7281 * Heavy edits in ipplib. Removed the help system altogether. Now
7275 7282 obj?/?? is used for inspecting objects, a magic @doc prints
7276 7283 docstrings, and full-blown Python help is accessed via the 'help'
7277 7284 keyword. This cleans up a lot of code (less to maintain) and does
7278 7285 the job. Since 'help' is now a standard Python component, might as
7279 7286 well use it and remove duplicate functionality.
7280 7287
7281 7288 Also removed the option to use ipplib as a standalone program. By
7282 7289 now it's too dependent on other parts of IPython to function alone.
7283 7290
7284 7291 * Fixed bug in genutils.pager. It would crash if the pager was
7285 7292 exited immediately after opening (broken pipe).
7286 7293
7287 7294 * Trimmed down the VerboseTB reporting a little. The header is
7288 7295 much shorter now and the repeated exception arguments at the end
7289 7296 have been removed. For interactive use the old header seemed a bit
7290 7297 excessive.
7291 7298
7292 7299 * Fixed small bug in output of @whos for variables with multi-word
7293 7300 types (only first word was displayed).
7294 7301
7295 7302 2001-11-17 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
7296 7303
7297 7304 * Version 0.1.10 released, 0.1.11 opened for further work.
7298 7305
7299 7306 * Modified dirs and friends. dirs now *returns* the stack (not
7300 7307 prints), so one can manipulate it as a variable. Convenient to
7301 7308 travel along many directories.
7302 7309
7303 7310 * Fixed bug in magic_pdef: would only work with functions with
7304 7311 arguments with default values.
7305 7312
7306 7313 2001-11-14 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
7307 7314
7308 7315 * Added the PhysicsInput stuff to dot_ipython so it ships as an
7309 7316 example with IPython. Various other minor fixes and cleanups.
7310 7317
7311 7318 * Version 0.1.9 released, 0.1.10 opened for further work.
7312 7319
7313 7320 * Added sys.path to the list of directories searched in the
7314 7321 execfile= option. It used to be the current directory and the
7315 7322 user's IPYTHONDIR only.
7316 7323
7317 7324 2001-11-13 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
7318 7325
7319 7326 * Reinstated the raw_input/prefilter separation that Janko had
7320 7327 initially. This gives a more convenient setup for extending the
7321 7328 pre-processor from the outside: raw_input always gets a string,
7322 7329 and prefilter has to process it. We can then redefine prefilter
7323 7330 from the outside and implement extensions for special
7324 7331 purposes.
7325 7332
7326 7333 Today I got one for inputting PhysicalQuantity objects
7327 7334 (from Scientific) without needing any function calls at
7328 7335 all. Extremely convenient, and it's all done as a user-level
7329 7336 extension (no IPython code was touched). Now instead of:
7330 7337 a = PhysicalQuantity(4.2,'m/s**2')
7331 7338 one can simply say
7332 7339 a = 4.2 m/s**2
7333 7340 or even
7334 7341 a = 4.2 m/s^2
7335 7342
7336 7343 I use this, but it's also a proof of concept: IPython really is
7337 7344 fully user-extensible, even at the level of the parsing of the
7338 7345 command line. It's not trivial, but it's perfectly doable.
7339 7346
7340 7347 * Added 'add_flip' method to inclusion conflict resolver. Fixes
7341 7348 the problem of modules being loaded in the inverse order in which
7342 7349 they were defined in
7343 7350
7344 7351 * Version 0.1.8 released, 0.1.9 opened for further work.
7345 7352
7346 7353 * Added magics pdef, source and file. They respectively show the
7347 7354 definition line ('prototype' in C), source code and full python
7348 7355 file for any callable object. The object inspector oinfo uses
7349 7356 these to show the same information.
7350 7357
7351 7358 * Version 0.1.7 released, 0.1.8 opened for further work.
7352 7359
7353 7360 * Separated all the magic functions into a class called Magic. The
7354 7361 InteractiveShell class was becoming too big for Xemacs to handle
7355 7362 (de-indenting a line would lock it up for 10 seconds while it
7356 7363 backtracked on the whole class!)
7357 7364
7358 7365 FIXME: didn't work. It can be done, but right now namespaces are
7359 7366 all messed up. Do it later (reverted it for now, so at least
7360 7367 everything works as before).
7361 7368
7362 7369 * Got the object introspection system (magic_oinfo) working! I
7363 7370 think this is pretty much ready for release to Janko, so he can
7364 7371 test it for a while and then announce it. Pretty much 100% of what
7365 7372 I wanted for the 'phase 1' release is ready. Happy, tired.

7367 7374 2001-11-12 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
7368 7375
7369 7376 * Version 0.1.6 released, 0.1.7 opened for further work.
7370 7377
7371 7378 * Fixed bug in printing: it used to test for truth before
7372 7379 printing, so 0 wouldn't print. Now checks for None.
7373 7380
7374 7381 * Fixed bug where auto-execs increase the prompt counter by 2 (b/c
7375 7382 they have to call len(str(sys.ps1)) ). But the fix is ugly, it
7376 7383 reaches by hand into the outputcache. Think of a better way to do
7377 7384 this later.
7378 7385
7379 7386 * Various small fixes thanks to Nathan's comments.
7380 7387
7381 7388 * Changed magic_pprint to magic_Pprint. This way it doesn't
7382 7389 collide with pprint() and the name is consistent with the command
7383 7390 line option.
7384 7391
7385 7392 * Changed prompt counter behavior to be fully like
7386 7393 Mathematica's. That is, even input that doesn't return a result
7387 7394 raises the prompt counter. The old behavior was kind of confusing
7388 7395 (getting the same prompt number several times if the operation
7389 7396 didn't return a result).
7390 7397
7391 7398 * Fixed Nathan's last name in a couple of places (Gray, not Graham).
7392 7399
7393 7400 * Fixed -Classic mode (wasn't working anymore).
7394 7401
7395 7402 * Added colored prompts using Nathan's new code. Colors are
7396 7403 currently hardwired, they can be user-configurable. For
7397 7404 developers, they can be chosen in file ipythonlib.py, at the
7398 7405 beginning of the CachedOutput class def.
7399 7406
7400 7407 2001-11-11 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
7401 7408
7402 7409 * Version 0.1.5 released, 0.1.6 opened for further work.
7403 7410
7404 7411 * Changed magic_env to *return* the environment as a dict (not to
7405 7412 print it). This way it prints, but it can also be processed.
7406 7413
7407 7414 * Added Verbose exception reporting to interactive
7408 7415 exceptions. Very nice, now even 1/0 at the prompt gives a verbose
7409 7416 traceback. Had to make some changes to the ultraTB file. This is
7410 7417 probably the last 'big' thing in my mental todo list. This ties
7411 7418 in with the next entry:
7412 7419
7413 7420 * Changed -Xi and -Xf to a single -xmode option. Now all the user
7414 7421 has to specify is Plain, Color or Verbose for all exception
7415 7422 handling.
7416 7423
7417 7424 * Removed ShellServices option. All this can really be done via
7418 7425 the magic system. It's easier to extend, cleaner and has automatic
7419 7426 namespace protection and documentation.
7420 7427
7421 7428 2001-11-09 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
7422 7429
7423 7430 * Fixed bug in output cache flushing (missing parameter to
7424 7431 __init__). Other small bugs fixed (found using pychecker).
7425 7432
7426 7433 * Version 0.1.4 opened for bugfixing.
7427 7434
7428 7435 2001-11-07 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
7429 7436
7430 7437 * Version 0.1.3 released, mainly because of the raw_input bug.
7431 7438
7432 7439 * Fixed NASTY bug in raw_input: input line wasn't properly parsed
7433 7440 and when testing for whether things were callable, a call could
7434 7441 actually be made to certain functions. They would get called again
7435 7442 once 'really' executed, with a resulting double call. A disaster
7436 7443 in many cases (list.reverse() would never work!).
7437 7444
7438 7445 * Removed prefilter() function, moved its code to raw_input (which
7439 7446 after all was just a near-empty caller for prefilter). This saves
7440 7447 a function call on every prompt, and simplifies the class a tiny bit.
7441 7448
7442 7449 * Fix _ip to __ip name in magic example file.
7443 7450
7444 7451 * Changed 'tar -x -f' to 'tar xvf' in auto-installer. This should
7445 7452 work with non-gnu versions of tar.
7446 7453
7447 7454 2001-11-06 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
7448 7455
7449 7456 * Version 0.1.2. Just to keep track of the recent changes.
7450 7457
7451 7458 * Fixed nasty bug in output prompt routine. It used to check 'if
7452 7459 arg != None...'. Problem is, this fails if arg implements a
7453 7460 special comparison (__cmp__) which disallows comparing to
7454 7461 None. Found it when trying to use the PhysicalQuantity module from
7455 7462 ScientificPython.
7456 7463
7457 7464 2001-11-05 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
7458 7465
7459 7466 * Also added dirs. Now the pushd/popd/dirs family functions
7460 7467 basically like the shell, with the added convenience of going home
7461 7468 when called with no args.
7462 7469
7463 7470 * pushd/popd slightly modified to mimic shell behavior more
7464 7471 closely.
7465 7472
7466 7473 * Added env,pushd,popd from ShellServices as magic functions. I
7467 7474 think the cleanest will be to port all desired functions from
7468 7475 ShellServices as magics and remove ShellServices altogether. This
7469 7476 will provide a single, clean way of adding functionality
7470 7477 (shell-type or otherwise) to IP.
7471 7478
7472 7479 2001-11-04 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
7473 7480
7474 7481 * Added .ipython/ directory to sys.path. This way users can keep
7475 7482 customizations there and access them via import.
7476 7483
7477 7484 2001-11-03 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
7478 7485
7479 7486 * Opened version 0.1.1 for new changes.
7480 7487
7481 7488 * Changed version number to 0.1.0: first 'public' release, sent to
7482 7489 Nathan and Janko.
7483 7490
7484 7491 * Lots of small fixes and tweaks.
7485 7492
7486 7493 * Minor changes to whos format. Now strings are shown, snipped if
7487 7494 too long.
7488 7495
7489 7496 * Changed ShellServices to work on __main__ so they show up in @who
7490 7497
7491 7498 * Help also works with ? at the end of a line:
7492 7499 ?sin and sin?
7493 7500 both produce the same effect. This is nice, as often I use the
7494 7501 tab-complete to find the name of a method, but I used to then have
7495 7502 to go to the beginning of the line to put a ? if I wanted more
7496 7503 info. Now I can just add the ? and hit return. Convenient.
7497 7504
7498 7505 2001-11-02 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
7499 7506
7500 7507 * Python version check (>=2.1) added.
7501 7508
7502 7509 * Added LazyPython documentation. At this point the docs are quite
7503 7510 a mess. A cleanup is in order.
7504 7511
7505 7512 * Auto-installer created. For some bizarre reason, the zipfiles
7506 7513 module isn't working on my system. So I made a tar version
7507 7514 (hopefully the command line options in various systems won't kill
7508 7515 me).
7509 7516
7510 7517 * Fixes to Struct in genutils. Now all dictionary-like methods are
7511 7518 protected (reasonably).
7512 7519
7513 7520 * Added pager function to genutils and changed ? to print usage
7514 7521 note through it (it was too long).
7515 7522
7516 7523 * Added the LazyPython functionality. Works great! I changed the
7517 7524 auto-quote escape to ';', it's on home row and next to '. But
7518 7525 both auto-quote and auto-paren (still /) escapes are command-line
7519 7526 parameters.
7520 7527
7521 7528
7522 7529 2001-11-01 Fernando Perez <fperez@colorado.edu>
7523 7530
7524 7531 * Version changed to 0.0.7. Fairly large change: configuration now
7525 7532 is all stored in a directory, by default .ipython. There, all
7526 7533 config files have normal looking names (not .names)
7527 7534
7528 7535 * Version 0.0.6 Released first to Lucas and Archie as a test
7529 7536 run. Since it's the first 'semi-public' release, change version to
7530 7537 > 0.0.6 for any changes now.
7531 7538
7532 7539 * Stuff I had put in the ipplib.py changelog:
7533 7540
7534 7541 Changes to InteractiveShell:
7535 7542
7536 7543 - Made the usage message a parameter.
7537 7544
7538 7545 - Require the name of the shell variable to be given. It's a bit
7539 7546 of a hack, but allows the name 'shell' not to be hardwired in the
7540 7547 magic (@) handler, which is problematic b/c it requires
7541 7548 polluting the global namespace with 'shell'. This in turn is
7542 7549 fragile: if a user redefines a variable called shell, things
7543 7550 break.
7544 7551
7545 7552 - magic @: all functions available through @ need to be defined
7546 7553 as magic_<name>, even though they can be called simply as
7547 7554 @<name>. This allows the special command @magic to gather
7548 7555 information automatically about all existing magic functions,
7549 7556 even if they are run-time user extensions, by parsing the shell
7550 7557 instance __dict__ looking for special magic_ names.
7551 7558
7552 7559 - mainloop: added *two* local namespace parameters. This allows
7553 7560 the class to differentiate between parameters which were there
7554 7561 before and after command line initialization was processed. This
7555 7562 way, later @who can show things loaded at startup by the
7556 7563 user. This trick was necessary to make session saving/reloading
7557 7564 really work: ideally after saving/exiting/reloading a session,
7558 7565 *everything* should look the same, including the output of @who. I
7559 7566 was only able to make this work with this double namespace
7560 7567 trick.
7561 7568
7562 7569 - added a header to the logfile which allows (almost) full
7563 7570 session restoring.
7564 7571
7565 7572 - prepend lines beginning with @ or !, with a and log
7566 7573 them. Why? !lines: may be useful to know what you did @lines:
7567 7574 they may affect session state. So when restoring a session, at
7568 7575 least inform the user of their presence. I couldn't quite get
7569 7576 them to properly re-execute, but at least the user is warned.
7570 7577
7571 7578 * Started ChangeLog.
