Merge pull request #1634 from minrk/proxylauncher Incremental improvements to SSH launchers: * add to_send/fetch steps for moving connection files around. * add SSHProxyEngineSetLauncher, for invoking to `ipcluster engines` on a remote host. This can be used to start a set of engines via PBS/SGE/MPI *remotely*. This makes the SSHLauncher usable on machines without shared filesystems. When sending files, the destination directory must *already exist* - that is, `ipython profile create` may be necessary on the remote system, before the security dir exists for putting the connection file the first time.

.SH DESCRIPTION
ipcluster is a control tool for IPython's parallel computing functions.
IPython cluster startup. This starts a controller and engines using various
approaches. Use the IPYTHON_DIR environment variable to change your IPython
directory from the default of ~/.ipython or ~/.config/ipython. The log and security
subdirectories of your IPython directory will be used by this script for log
files and security files.
.SH POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
The first positional argument should be one of: {start, stop, engines},
which are the available subcommands.
For detailed help on each, type "ipcluster CMD \-\-help". Briefly:
start start an IPython cluster
stop stop a running IPython cluster
engines add a number of engines to a running cluster
.SH OPTIONS
