Embed IPython shell?

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I know this may be senseless, but as I see there is GUI invent loop in Shell 
configuration, I thought to ask.

One of my main concerns while using IPython Qt console, is lacks of some UI 
element that will help me reuse code snippets. It maybe just the way I use it, 
as I often use separate editor to keep track of various snippets either from 
previous or current session.
I hope I can embed my know environment (IPython Qt console) as ipe shell and 
extend my workspace the right way.

I tried to set Qt console, but ipe shell configuration does not accept command 
arguments as I see. Then I just configured ipe shell to IPython terminal and 
surprise - I see some kind of IPython clone :) I guess it's better then plain 
interpreter but is it not possible to embed real IPython Qt console in ipe?

Thanks :)

No. The philosophies and internal workings of IEP and IPython differ in some 
fundamental ways, making it hard to combine them. 

I'm not saying it will never happen, but it won't happen any time soon, I think.
