  Development version
 =====================
 
 This document describes in-flight development work.

 Using different kernels
 -----------------------
 
 .. image:: ../_images/kernel_selector_screenshot.png
    :alt: Screenshot of notebook kernel selection dropdown menu
    :align: center
 
 You can now choose a kernel for a notebook within the user interface, rather
 than starting up a separate notebook server for each kernel you want to use. The
 syntax highlighting adapts to match the language you're working in.
 
 Information about the kernel is stored in the notebook file, so when you open a
 notebook, it will automatically start the correct kernel.
 
 It is also easier to use the Qt console and the terminal console with other
 kernels, using the --kernel flag::
 
     ipython qtconsole --kernel bash
     ipython console --kernel bash
 
     # To list available kernels
     ipython kernelspec list
 
 Kernel authors should see :ref:`kernelspecs` for how to register their kernels
 with IPython so that these mechanisms work.
 
 Typing unicode identifiers
 --------------------------
 
 .. image:: /_images/unicode_completion.png
 
 Complex expressions can be much cleaner when written with a wider choice of
 characters. Python 3 allows unicode identifiers, and IPython 3 makes it easier
 to type those, using a feature from Julia. Type a backslash followed by a LaTeX
 style short name, such as ``\alpha``. Press tab, and it will turn into α.
 
 Other new features
 ------------------
 
 * :class:`~.TextWidget` and :class:`~.TextareaWidget` objects now include a
   ``placeholder`` attribute, for displaying placeholder text before the
   user has typed anything.
 
 * The :magic:`load` magic can now find the source for objects in the user namespace.
   To enable searching the namespace, use the ``-n`` option.
 
   .. sourcecode:: ipython
 
       In [1]: %load -n my_module.some_function
 
 * :class:`~.DirectView` objects have a new :meth:`~.DirectView.use_cloudpickle`
   method, which works like ``view.use_dill()``, but causes the ``cloudpickle``
   module from PiCloud's `cloud`__ library to be used rather than dill or the
   builtin pickle module.
 
   __ https://pypi.python.org/pypi/cloud
 
 * Added a .ipynb exporter to nbconvert.  It can be used by passing `--to notebook`
   as a commandline argument to nbconvert.
 
 * New nbconvert preprocessor called :class:`~.ClearOutputPreprocessor`. This
   clears the output from IPython notebooks.
 
 * New preprocessor for nbconvert that executes all the code cells in a notebook.
   To run a notebook and save its output in a new notebook::
 
       ipython nbconvert InputNotebook --ExecutePreprocessor.enabled=True --to notebook --output Executed
 
 * Consecutive stream (stdout/stderr) output is merged into a single output
   in the notebook document.
   Previously, all output messages were preserved as separate output fields in the JSON.
   Now, the same merge is applied to the stored output as the displayed output,
   improving document load time for notebooks with many small outputs.
 
 * ``NotebookApp.webapp_settings`` is deprecated and replaced with
   the more informatively named ``NotebookApp.tornado_settings``.
 
 * Using :magic:`timeit` prints warnings if there is atleast a 4x difference in timings
   between the slowest and fastest runs, since this might meant that the multiple
   runs are not independent of one another.
 
 * It's now possible to provide mechanisms to integrate IPython with other event
   loops, in addition to the ones we already support. This lets you run GUI code
   in IPython with an interactive prompt, and to embed the IPython
   kernel in GUI applications. See :doc:`/config/eventloops` for details. As part
   of this, the direct ``enable_*`` and ``disable_*`` functions for various GUIs
   in :mod:`IPython.lib.inputhook` have been deprecated in favour of
   :meth:`~.InputHookManager.enable_gui` and :meth:`~.InputHookManager.disable_gui`.
 
 * A ``ScrollManager`` was added to the notebook.  The ``ScrollManager`` controls how the notebook document is scrolled using keyboard.  Users can inherit from the ``ScrollManager`` or ``TargetScrollManager`` to customize how their notebook scrolls.  The default ``ScrollManager`` is the ``SlideScrollManager``, which tries to scroll to the nearest slide or sub-slide cell.
 
 * The function :func:`~IPython.html.widgets.interaction.interact_manual` has been
   added which behaves similarly to :func:`~IPython.html.widgets.interaction.interact`,
   but adds a button to explicitly run the interacted-with function, rather than
   doing it automatically for every change of the parameter widgets. This should
   be useful for long-running functions.
 
 * The ``%cython`` magic is now part of the Cython module. Use `%load_ext Cython` with a version of Cython >= 0.21 to have access to the magic now.
 
 * The Notebook application now offers integrated terminals on Unix platforms,
   intended for when it is used on a remote server. To enable these, install
   the ``terminado`` Python package.
 
 * Setting the default highlighting language for nbconvert with the config option
   ``NbConvertBase.default_language`` is deprecated. Nbconvert now respects
   metadata stored in the :ref:`kernel spec <kernelspecs>`.
 
 * IPython can now be configured systemwide, with files in :file:`/etc/ipython`
   or :file:`/usr/local/etc/ipython` on Unix systems,
   or :file:`{%PROGRAMDATA%}\\ipython` on Windows.
 
 .. DO NOT EDIT THIS LINE BEFORE RELEASE. FEATURE INSERTION POINT.
 
 
 Backwards incompatible changes
 ------------------------------
 
 * :func:`IPython.core.oinspect.getsource` call specification has changed:
 
   * `oname` keyword argument has been added for property source formatting
   * `is_binary` keyword argument has been dropped, passing ``True`` had
     previously short-circuited the function to return ``None`` unconditionally
 
 * Removed the octavemagic extension: it is now available as ``oct2py.ipython``.
 
 * Creating PDFs with LaTeX no longer uses a post processor.
   Use `nbconvert --to pdf` instead of `nbconvert --to latex --post pdf`.
 
 * Used https://github.com/jdfreder/bootstrap2to3 to migrate the Notebook to Bootstrap 3.
 
   Additional changes:
 
   - Set `.tab-content .row` `0px;` left and right margin (bootstrap default is `-15px;`)
   - Removed `height: @btn_mini_height;` from `.list_header>div, .list_item>div` in `tree.less`
   - Set `#header` div `margin-bottom: 0px;`
   - Set `#menus` to `float: left;`
   - Set `#maintoolbar .navbar-text` to `float: none;`
   - Added no-padding convienence class.
   - Set border of #maintoolbar to 0px
 
 * Accessing the `container` DOM object when displaying javascript has been
   deprecated in IPython 2.0 in favor of accessing `element`. Starting with
   IPython 3.0 trying to access `container` will raise an error in browser
   javascript console.
 
 * ``IPython.utils.py3compat.open`` was removed: :func:`io.open` provides all
   the same functionality.
 
 * The NotebookManager and ``/api/notebooks`` service has been replaced by
   a more generic ContentsManager and ``/api/contents`` service,
   which supports all kinds of files.
 * The Dashboard now lists all files, not just notebooks and directories.
 * The ``--script`` hook for saving notebooks to Python scripts is removed,
   use :samp:`ipython nbconvert --to python {notebook}` instead.
 
 * The ``rmagic`` extension is deprecated, as it is now part of rpy2. See
   :mod:`rpy2.ipython.rmagic`.
 
 * :meth:`~.KernelManager.start_kernel` and :meth:`~.KernelManager.format_kernel_cmd`
   no longer accept a ``executable`` parameter. Use the kernelspec machinery instead.
 
 * The widget classes have been renamed from `*Widget` to `*`.  The old names are
   still functional, but are deprecated.  i.e. `IntSliderWidget` has been renamed
   to `IntSlider`.
 * The ContainerWidget was renamed to Box and no longer defaults as a flexible
   box in the web browser.  A new FlexBox widget was added, which allows you to
   use the flexible box model.

 IFrame embedding

 The IPython Notebook and its APIs by default will only be allowed to be
 embedded in an iframe on the same origin.
