NAME

       ipython - Tools for Interactive Computing in Python.

SYNOPSIS

       ipython [options] files...

       ipython subcommand [options]...

DESCRIPTION

       An  interactive  Python  shell  with  automatic history (input and output), dynamic object introspection,
       easier configuration, command completion, access to the system  shell,  integration  with  numerical  and
       scientific computing tools, web notebook, Qt console, and more.

       For  more  information  on  how  to  use  IPython,  see 'ipython --help', or 'ipython --help-all' for all
       available command‐line options.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       IPYTHONDIR
           This is the location where IPython stores all its configuration files.  The default on most platforms
           is  $HOME/.ipython,  but  on  Linux  IPython  respects  the  XDG config specification, which will put
           IPYTHONDIR in $HOME/.config/ipython by default.

           You can see the computed value of IPYTHONDIR with `ipython locate`.

FILES

       IPython uses various configuration files stored in profiles within IPYTHONDIR.  To generate  the  default
       configuration  files  and  start configuring IPython, do 'ipython profile create', and edit '*_config.py'
       files located in IPYTHONDIR/profile_default.
