Hi all.<br><br>I want to resume a discussion that I had with Fernando here in Medellín a month or 2 ago and we agreed that it was an importatn part of the design of this project that has to be asked here.<br><br>That is about the format in wich IPythonQt should save sessions for reloading.<br>
We were thinking ahead with the project trying to make a help widget similar to the one in mathematica(that is the best characteristic of it) so the help widget would read form a website like python's tutorial and put the code blocks in IPythonQt's cells of code and the text in text cells, this will be then writing a parser for plain text or HTML(it's better the first option i think) because those are natural ways for a QTextEdit to interpret a webpage.<br>
Then it will be natural to write the notebook sessions as plain text or HTML.<br>We talked also about saving the sessions in rst format that will be native for ipython's documentation. I've not really evaluated the pros and cons of this choice.<br>
<br>This is an important part for the design of every client/interface that'll talk to ipython's kernel, so they can share the same type of documentation.<br><br>Have a good day.<br> <font color="#888888"><br><br>
