disallow no-prefix `ipython foo=bar` argument style....
disallow no-prefix `ipython foo=bar` argument style. This style is in rc1, but will be removed in rc2. Since they don't match any flag pattern, rc1-style arguments will be interpreted by IPython as files to be run. So `ipython gui=foo -i` will exec gui=foo, and pass '-i' to gui=foo. Presumably this file won't exist, so there will be an error: Error in executing file in user namespace: gui=foo Assignments *must* have two leading '-', as in: ipython --foo=bar all flags (non-assignments) can be specified with one or two leading '-', as in: ipython -i --pylab -pdb --pprint script.py or ipython --i -pylab --pdb -pprint script.py but help only reports two-leading, as single-leading options will likely be removed on moving to argparse, where they will be replaced by single-letter aliases. The common remaining invalid option will be: ipython -foo=bar and a suggestion for 'did you mean --foo=bar'? will be presented in these cases.

def doctest_reload():
"""Properly reload doctest to reuse it interactively.
This routine:
- imports doctest but does NOT reload it (see below).
- resets its global 'master' attribute to None, so that multiple uses of
the module interactively don't produce cumulative reports.
- Monkeypatches its core test runner method to protect it from IPython's
modified displayhook. Doctest expects the default displayhook behavior
deep down, so our modification breaks it completely. For this reason, a
hard monkeypatch seems like a reasonable solution rather than asking
users to manually use a different doctest runner when under IPython.
Notes
-----
This function *used to* reload doctest, but this has been disabled because
reloading doctest unconditionally can cause massive breakage of other
doctest-dependent modules already in memory, such as those for IPython's
own testing system. The name wasn't changed to avoid breaking people's
code, but the reload call isn't actually made anymore."""
