Some test code and some exploratory writing (see Enhancements.org) to get my head on straight.

Imenu/Speedbar Cooperation
Seems to be a couple ways of doing this:
- Configuring `imenu-generic-expression` regex's.
- Redefining imenu-create-index ala python.el.
(2) seems to be the more elegant solution.
EIN currently has minimal support for imenu through `ein:worksheet-imenu-create-index`, but all it does is look for headings. Somehow this fails to work with speedbar and also does not handle indexing Python code (i.e. variables, function, classes, etc.).
To get the speedbar working we will need to define a minor mode per the following instructions.
For /name/~-speedbar-menu-items~ can I just use imenu-generic-expression?
Maybe the way to do this is for each [[file:lisp/ein-cell.el::ein:codecell][codecell]] create a temp buffer with the text
of that cell and call ein:imenu-create-index.
(let ((text (ein:cell-get-text cell)))
(with-temp-buffer
(insert text)
(ein:imenu-create-index)))
Still will need way to map temp buffer positions to actual positions in the
notebook buffer (ein:cell-input-pos-min and ein:cell-input-pos-max)

- Understand how org-mode does it.
- Steal???
- Profit!!!
Use polymode
Polymode uses indirect buffers, which may or may not be a good solution for ein notebooks.
Access password protected notebooks
Connect to non-python kernels
Synergies with pymacs?
Detect system path of opened notebook
Jump to notebook code in traceback (issue #42)
What needs to be done:
- Carry notebook reference in the
[[file:lisp/ein-traceback.el::ein:traceback][ein:traceback]]structure. - Look for
<ipython-input-3-05c9758a9c21> in <module>(). The number 3 means input #3 in the notebook. - Find cell based on input number. Can iterate through list of cells () and look for matching
input-prompt-number. - Call
ein:cell-gotoon that cell. May need to swap buffers first.
