Use default OS shell to run system commands...
Use default OS shell to run system commands Instead of using os.system which uses /bin/sh, this uses subprocess.call (the replacement of os.system) to run the command using the default shell of the OS. With this, one can use more advanced commands for bash, zsh, ksh, ... I also edited the docstring, added comments and fixed the handling of return codes.

%store magic for lightweight persistence.
Stores variables, aliases and macros in IPython's database.
To automatically restore stored variables at startup, add this to your

Example::
In [1]: l = ['hello',10,'world']
In [2]: %store l
In [3]: exit
(IPython session is closed and started again...)
ville@badger:~$ ipython
In [1]: l
NameError: name 'l' is not defined
In [2]: %store -r
In [3]: l
Out[3]: ['hello', 10, 'world']
Usage:
* ``%store`` - Show list of all variables and their current
values
* ``%store spam`` - Store the *current* value of the variable spam
to disk
* ``%store -d spam`` - Remove the variable and its value from storage
* ``%store -z`` - Remove all variables from storage
* ``%store -r`` - Refresh all variables from store (overwrite
current vals)
* ``%store -r spam bar`` - Refresh specified variables from store
(delete current val)
* ``%store foo >a.txt`` - Store value of foo to new file a.txt
* ``%store foo >>a.txt`` - Append value of foo to file a.txt
It should be noted that if you change the value of a variable, you
need to %store it again if you want to persist the new value.
Note also that the variables will need to be pickleable; most basic
python types can be safely %store'd.
Also aliases can be %store'd across sessions.
