This feature was discussed in #6123, but it doesn't look like anything was ever incorporated into the IPython Notebook. Here's a brief overview of the changes: - Display of messages from other clients can be toggled on and off from within a notebook, either using the ``<M-m>e`` keyboard shortcut in the web UI, or through the option in the "Kernel" menu. - notebook.js controls whether messages are displayed through a callback that is invoked from kernel.js when no callbacks are available for a message. - The UI displays ``execute_input`` messages originating from an other clients in new cells at the end of the notebook. Output messages (``execute_result`` et al.) will only be displayed if a cell exists with a matching message ID. Pending design questions: - Should each ``execute_input`` message cause a new cell to be created? - Should new cells be placed at the end of the notebook, or elsewhere? If the latter, what criteria should be followed?

""" Import Qt in a manner suitable for an IPython kernel.
This is the import used for the `gui=qt` or `matplotlib=qt` initialization.
Import Priority:
if Qt4 has been imported anywhere else:
use that
if matplotlib has been imported and doesn't support v2 (<= 1.0.1):
use PyQt4 @v1
Next, ask ETS' QT_API env variable
if QT_API not set:
ask matplotlib via rcParams['backend.qt4']
if it said PyQt:
use PyQt4 @v1
elif it said PySide:
use PySide
else: (matplotlib said nothing)
# this is the default path - nobody told us anything
try:
PyQt @v1
except:
fallback on PySide
else:
use PyQt @v2 or PySide, depending on QT_API
because ETS doesn't work with PyQt @v1.
