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

       enables them to keep running after exceptions that would
       otherwise kill their mainloop. This is a bother for IPython
       which excepts to catch all of the program exceptions with a try:
       except: statement.
 
       Normally, IPython sets sys.excepthook to a CrashHandler instance, so if
       any app directly invokes sys.excepthook, it will look to the user like
       IPython crashed.  In order to work around this, we can disable the
       CrashHandler and replace it with this excepthook instead, which prints a
       regular traceback using our InteractiveTB.  In this fashion, apps which
       call sys.excepthook will generate a regular-looking exception from
       IPython, and the CrashHandler will only be triggered by real IPython
       crashes.

 """IPython Test Suite Runner.
 
 This module provides a main entry point to a user script to test IPython
 itself from the command line. There are two ways of running this script:
 
 1. With the syntax `iptest all`.  This runs our entire test suite by
    calling this script (with different arguments) or trial recursively.  This
    causes modules and package to be tested in different processes, using nose
    or trial where appropriate.
 2. With the regular nose syntax, like `iptest -vvs IPython`.  In this form
    the script simply calls nose, but with special command line flags and
    plugins loaded.
 
 For now, this script requires that both nose and twisted are installed.  This
 will change in the future.

 =============================
 IPython module reorganization
 =============================
 
 Currently, IPython has many top-level modules that serve many different purposes.
 The lack of organization make it very difficult for developers to work on IPython
 and understand its design. This document contains notes about how we will reorganize
 the modules into sub-packages.
 
 .. warning::
 
     This effort will possibly break third party packages that use IPython as
     a library or hack on the IPython internals.
 
 .. warning::
 
     This effort will result in the removal from IPython of certain modules
     that are not used anymore, don't currently work, are unmaintained, etc.
 
 
 Current subpackges
 ==================
 
 IPython currently has the following sub-packages:
 
 * :mod:`IPython.config`
 
 * :mod:`IPython.Extensions`
 
 * :mod:`IPython.external`
 
 * :mod:`IPython.frontend`
 
 * :mod:`IPython.gui`
 
 * :mod:`IPython.kernel`
 
 * :mod:`IPython.testing`
 
 * :mod:`IPython.tests`
 
 * :mod:`IPython.tools`
 
 * :mod:`IPython.UserConfig`
 
 New Subpackages to be created
 =============================
 
 We propose to create the following new sub-packages:
 
 * :mod:`IPython.core`. This sub-package will contain the core of the IPython
   interpreter, but none of its extended capabilities.
 
 * :mod:`IPython.lib`. IPython has many extended capabilities that are not part
   of the IPython core. These things will go here.  Any better names than 
   :mod:`IPython.lib`?
 
 * :mod:`IPython.utils`. This sub-package will contain anything that might
   eventually be found in the Python standard library, like things in
   :mod:`genutils`. Each sub-module in this sub-package should contain
   functions and classes that serve a single purpose.
 
 * :mod:`IPython.deathrow`. This is for code that is untested and/or rotting
   and needs to be removed from IPython. Eventually all this code will either
   i) be revived by someone willing to maintain it with tests and docs and
   re-included into IPython or 2) be removed from IPython proper, but put into
   a separate top-level (not IPython) package that we keep around. No new code
   will be allowed here.
 
 * :mod:`IPython.quarantine`.  This is for code that doesn't meet IPython's 
   standards, but that we plan on keeping.  To be moved out of this sub-package
   a module needs to have a maintainer, tests and documentation.
 
 Prodecure
 =========
 
 1. Move the file to its new location with its new name.
 2. Rename all import statements to reflect the change.
 3. Run PyFlakes on each changes module.
 3. Add tests/test_imports.py to test it.
 
 Need to modify iptests to properly skip modules that are no longer top
 level modules.
 
 Need to update the top level IPython/__init__.py file.
 
 Where things will be moved

   :file:`IPython/core/pycolorize.py`. Maybe move to :mod:`IPython.lib` or
   :mod:`IPython.python`?

 Other things
 ============
 
 When these files are moved around, a number of other things will happen at the same time:
 
 1. Test files will be created for each module in IPython. Minimally, all
    modules will be imported as a part of the test. This will serve as a 
    test of the module reorganization. These tests will be put into new
    :file:`tests` subdirectories that each package will have.
 
 2. PyFlakes and other code checkers will be run to look for problems.
 
 3. Modules will be renamed to comply with PEP 8 naming conventions:  all
    lowercase and no special characters like ``-`` or ``_``.
 
 4. Existing tests will be moved to the appropriate :file:`tests`
    subdirectories.
