Merge pull request #1332 from astraw/alternate-url-prefix...
Merge pull request #1332 from astraw/alternate-url-prefix notebook - allow prefixes in URL path. This closes #1329. The basic idea is to allow prefixes in the path served. (E.g. serve on http://localhost:8888/ipython/ instead of http://localhost:8888/ ) This is useful for running the ipython notebook behind a proxy serving other content at other URLs. In that case, one would also need to proxy the websockets. Also, clean up some static paths in our html/css files by using template function calls instead of hardcoded paths.

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.
