[IPython-dev] nbopen & nbmanager - a pair of tools for IPython Notebook on your own machine

[Joshua Barratt]

It *almost* works on IPython 2.x, except the nbserver-* JSON blobs only
have the PID's in the name, not the actual file.

I took a pass at fixing this up for IPython 2.x, by borrowing some of the
code from the master branch, and it seems to be working.
