# -*- coding: utf-8 -*- """ IPython extension: add %rehashdir magic Usage: %rehashdir c:/bin c:/tools - Add all executables under c:/bin and c:/tools to alias table, in order to make them directly executable from any directory. This also serves as an example on how to extend ipython with new magic functions. Unlike rest of ipython, this requires Python 2.4 (optional extensions are allowed to do that). To install, add "import_mod ext_rehashdir" To your ipythonrc or just execute "import rehash_dir" in ipython prompt. $Id: InterpreterExec.py 994 2006-01-08 08:29:44Z fperez $ """ import IPython.ipapi as ip import os,re,fnmatch @ip.asmagic("rehashdir") def rehashdir_f(self,arg): """ Add executables in all specified dirs to alias table Usage: %rehashdir c:/bin c:/tools - Add all executables under c:/bin and c:/tools to alias table, in order to make them directly executable from any directory.
