+Below is an example that you can just put to a module and import from ipython. 
+
+A good practice is to install the config script below as e.g. 
+
+~/.ipython/my_private_conf.py
+
+And do 
+
+import_mod my_private_conf 
+
+in ~/.ipython/ipythonrc
+
+That way the module is imported at startup and you can have all your
+personal configuration (as opposed to boilerplate ipythonrc-PROFILENAME 
+stuff) in there.
