dickmao 0490031ec8 Sane File Navigation
As emacs users we prefer and have the luxury of fuzzy file navigation
via ido and projectile.  From a notebook or notebooklist buffer, the commands

`C-c C-f` ein:file-open
`C-c C-o` ein:notebook-open

offer an ido alternative to point and click navigation.

To populate the ido lists, retrieving the content hierarchy is on by
default.  Two custom variables determine how wide and deep the content query
probes (currently at 2 levels deep and 6 directories wide).  Set both
to zero to turn off.

tkf half finished code to quickly go from local file buffers to notebook
mode via `C-c C-z` or `C-c C-o`.  This is now possible.  EIN will
start the server from a suitable parent directory of the visited file.

Enable ido completion for `notebooklist-login`.

Remove the albatross `ein-loaddefs.el` in favor of more standard
`ein-autoloads.el` that is not git tracked.

Convenience `make install` from git source (local alternative to
melpa).

;; EIN -- Emacs IPython Notebook
;; ==================================
;; --- or **E**\ IN **I**\ s not only for **N**\ otebooks.
;; EIN works with IPython 2.x_, 3.x_, and Juptyer_! Note that remote and
;; password protected logins are working with IPython 3.x, but have not been
;; tested with Jupyter.
;; .. note:: The code has been stable enough for my day to day work, but there are
;; no guarantees for the safety for your notebook data. Please make sure
;; that you backup and backup often!

;; Features
;; ========
;; The Emacs IPython Notebook (EIN) provides a client for the IPython v2.x and
;; 3.x notebooks and an integrated REPL (like SLIME_) in Emacs. EIN makes
;; notebook editing very powerful by allowing you to use any Emacs features, it
;; also expose IPython features such as code evaluation, object inspection and
;; code completion to the Emacs side. These features can be accessed anywhere
;; in Emacs and improve Python code editing and reading in Emacs.
;; .. _SLIME: http://common-lisp.net/project/slime/
;; Highlighted features:
;; * Copy/paste cells, even to/from different notebooks.
;; * Console integration: You can easily connect to a kernel via the console
;; application. This enables you to start debugging in the same kernel. It is
;; even possible to connect to a console over ssh.
;; * An IPython kernel can be "connected" to any buffer. This enables you to
;; evaluate a buffer or buffer region using the same kernel as the notebook.
;; Notebook goodies such as tooltip help, help browser and code completion are
;; available in these buffers.
;; * Jump to definition (go to the definition by hitting ``M-.`` over an object).
;; Other notebook features:
;; * Inline images
;; * Auto/manual-completion
;; * Popup (tooltip) help
;; * Syntax highlighting in each cell types (Python/Markdown)
;; * Help browser (opens when executing ``function?``)
;; * Traceback viewer
;;; Code:
(provide 'ein)
;;; Old commentary:
;; Development
;; ===========
;; Event vs hook vs callback
;; -------------------------
;;
;; * Use events (`ein:events') for calling (possibly multiple) functions
;; for its side effect.
;; * Use hooks for global/configurable setting.
;; * Use callback when caller needs returned value.
;; (e.g., `:get-buffers' slot in `ein:kernelinfo')
;; Naming
;; ------
;;
;; Variable named `ein:%VAR-NAME%' is a permanent buffer local
;; variable defined by `ein:deflocal'. It is often an instance of a
;; class/struct named `ein:VAR-NAME'.
;;
;; Old naming rule:
;; * `ein:@VAR-NAME'/`ein:VAR-NAME' is a permanent buffer local
;; variable. These variables are obsolete now.
;; * `ein:$STRUCT-NAME' is a name of struct.
;; These strcuts will be renamed to `ein:CLASS-NAME' when
;; reimplementing them using EIEIO class instead of CL struct.
;;
;; See also:
;; `CLiki : naming conventions <http://www.cliki.net/naming%20conventions>`_
;; Integrate ein into core emacs functionality
(when (boundp 'mouse-buffer-menu-mode-groups)
(add-to-list 'mouse-buffer-menu-mode-groups
'("^ein:" . "ein")))
