Now if it is called from ipython notebook, a browser is already open, so it simply opens up a new tab.<br>
If the method is called from command line interpreter or qtconsole instead of popping up a browser window (some people find it irritating), we can display a message that requests them to manually open browser and move to that url. What is the best approach for this?</p>

Hi,<br>
I have written a method, which behaves differently when called from IPython<br>
notebook, and from interpreter/qtconsole respectively.<br>
I need to detect whether the method is called from notebook or interpreter.<br>
This was the code I was using till now.<br>
<br>
if get_ipython().config['KernelApp']['parent_appname'] ==<br>
'ipython-notebook':<br>
##Do something<br>
<br>
But I have came to know that this particular dict changes its format in<br>
different IPython versions(I am not sure how many changes are there).<br>
<br>
Is there any better method to achieve this?<br>
Thanks in advance :)<br>

You should describe what you ment by "called from a notebook"<br>
it is not clear enough to give a correct answer.<br>
<br>
But if the question is the same as usual, and as stated in many discussion scattered<br>
over the net and mailing list, there is no, and there will be no reliable way to detect which<br>
frontend are requiring code execution, as there is no reason for a kernel to be connected<br>
to only one frontend.<br>
<br>
It is like a book writer asking "how can I make the eye color of my main character the same as my reader" ?<br>
The question make no sense as two person can be reading the same page of the same book at the same time.<br>
<br>
And as usual, if you describe what you are trying to archive instead of how,<br>
you might get an answer that suit you.<br>
<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
