Mergesplit #1261
Conversation
* QuickHelp button has been removed in favor of a Help menu item. * Keyboard shortcuts are now in the menus. * Numerous fixes to subtle aspects of the wijmenu implementation.
There is not a rename dialog that is available in the File menu and when you click on the notebook name.
* Added last saved with time/date display. * Reimplemented save widget status updates.
Fix display of SyntaxError in Python 3, plus various cleanups to exception-handling machinery. Closes ipython#1225.

Great job!!! Functionality works great, and I think we can move forward even if it's only for code cells now. In any case, those are the ones where it matters most (I don't think there are nearly as many reasons for wanting to merge/split text cells). A few questions:
Regarding the edit menu, I think it's still OK but I agree we're about at the limit. We could do what LyX uses, they have plain 'paste', but submenus for 'paste special' and 'paste recent', which have a few options each. That is: keep the most common option available at the top-level, and create sub-menus for the others. |
This prevents the heartbeat from ever waiting for the GIL, which could cause erroneous heartbeat failures.
associated test added and passing

About the On the menu and shortcut issues, I think we should leave it as is and see how it goes. On the cell level metadata, let's cross that bridge when we get there. But how this will be handled in a merge operation is good to keep in the back of ours heads for latter. |
Heartbeat no longer shares the app's Context Fixes in both the single and parallel kernels, preventing the heartbeat thread from sharing the zmq Context with the rest of the process. Non-copying sends require grabbing the GIL from the zmq io-thread in order to free memory, which could let Python get in the way of the heartbeat. Test script and notebook added to examples directory. closes ipython#1260
When used, this disables database-based actions in the Hub. Useful for minimizing Hub memory consumption.
set auto_create flag for notebook apps Fixes first use of bundled profiles when used with the notebook (e.g. ipython --profile=sympy).
use self.kernel_manager_class in qtconsoleapp Subclasses of QtConsoleApp can now override kernel_manager_class with their own version.
allow Reference as callable in map/apply
This allows behaviors like:
rf = parallel.Reference('f')
ar = view.map(rf, *sequences)
where the function 'f' is defined on the engines, and can even be different.
add `--nodb` option for non-recording Hub This allows simple use cases to avoid needing to call `purge_results` to prevent memory growth of the Hub.
Fix minor typo in history_console_widget.py

For some reason this is showing up as not merged, But it has been merged. |
I have implemented cell merging and splitting. Overall it works pretty well, but I have not implemented this feature for cell types other than code cells. I will do that after some refactoring of the underlying cell objects.
Some questions before merging:
