Generate "All magics..." menu live...
Generate "All magics..." menu live this use 'user_expression' request to ask for the value of 'get_ipython().lsmagic()' and populate the menu with the result. As is, the action need to be triggerd by hand, once the console have appear. Otherwith there is no prompt The logic can certainly also be shortend by using msg.id instead of uuid We should also keep a list of magic that shouldn't be executed without argument (eg: %gui) and don't put them in the menu. or appending '?' at the end

Notes for Windows Users
=======================
These are just minimal notes. The manual contains more detailed
information.
Requirements
------------
IPython runs under (as far as the Windows family is concerned):
- Windows XP (I think WinNT/2000 are ok): works well. It needs:
* Gary Bishop's readline from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/uncpythontools.
* This in turn requires Tomas Heller's ctypes from
http://starship.python.net/crew/theller/ctypes.
- Windows 95/98/ME: I have no idea. It should work, but I can't test.
- CygWin environments should work, they are basically Posix.
It needs Python 2.2 or newer.
Installation
------------
Double-click the supplied .exe installer file. If all goes well, that's all
you need to do. You should now have an IPython entry in your Start Menu.
In case the automatic installer does not work for some reason, you can
download the ipython-XXX.tar.gz file, which contains the full IPython source
distribution (the popular WinZip can read .tar.gz files). After uncompressing
the archive, you can install it at a command terminal just like any other
Python module, by using python setup.py install'. After this completes, you
can run the supplied win32_manual_post_install.py script which will add
the relevant shortcuts to your startup menu.
