[IPython-dev] [newbie] stepping through code using the 1/0 trick?

But when in ipython I import or %run code with such a set_trace() call  I get thrown into the normal pdb, not the nicer iPython version that I find much more usable. 

How can I get into ipython's debugger in a way that I can step through code?

thanks!
