[IPython-dev] Customize IPython tree / dashboard with machine name

Hi,
I agree, the multiple server on one machine case is unnecessary; I did it
occasionally for working on two very different areas of research in
parallel, to just be able to instantly switch between the two.
Anyway, the main issue is that I have many machines on which I run a server
on, so accessing the whole hard drive doesn't help in that case.
