Sliently running code in clipboard (with paste, cpaste and variants)

[amelio-vazquez-reina]

Hi there!

Apologies if this is not the right place to ask this question, but where can I find more information about %paste, %cpaste and %autoindent? I looked at the documentation, but I could not find more information about these specific magic commands.

Also, is there a way to have IPython silently run the code in the clipboard? i.e. have it not print the code I want it to run, but only the output (if there is any)

Thanks!

The best way to find information is to use ? and ??:

%autoindent?
....
Docstring:  Toggle autoindent on/off (if available).

?? will show you the code.

Also, is there a way to have IPython silently run the code in the clipboard?

From %paste?:

%paste -q
