[IPython-dev] Embedding IPython in C using Python/C API

[Filipe Saraiva]

Thanks Fernando.

Well, I would like to start the IPython terminal from a C code, and to
use Python/C API to send the commands to processing in IPython, but when
I start IPython the terminal don't receive the codes sent by
PyRun_SimpleString. The code is here http://paste.kde.org/p8psqxtks,
easy to understand.

I am thinking in to start a IPython kernel and make the communication
using the client-server model. But, before this solution, is there any
function to IPython process a command from the python interpreter?
Anything like this, in python interpreter:

import IPython
IPython.run(command_to_processing)

?

Thanks;
