description = "An interactive computing environment for Python"

long_description = \
"""
The goal of IPython is to create a comprehensive environment for
interactive and exploratory computing.  To support this goal, IPython
has two main components:

* An enhanced interactive Python shell.

* An architecture for interactive parallel computing.

The enhanced interactive Python shell has the following main features:

* Comprehensive object introspection.

* Input history, persistent across sessions.

* Caching of output results during a session with automatically generated
  references.

* Readline based name completion.

* Extensible system of 'magic' commands for controlling the environment and
  performing many tasks related either to IPython or the operating system.

* Configuration system with easy switching between different setups (simpler
  than changing $PYTHONSTARTUP environment variables every time).

* Session logging and reloading.

* Extensible syntax processing for special purpose situations.

* Access to the system shell with user-extensible alias system.

* Easily embeddable in other Python programs and wxPython GUIs.

* Integrated access to the pdb debugger and the Python profiler. 

The parallel computing architecture has the following main features:

* Quickly parallelize Python code from an interactive Python/IPython session.

* A flexible and dynamic process model that be deployed on anything from 
  multicore workstations to supercomputers.

* An architecture that supports many different styles of parallelism, from
  message passing to task farming.

* Both blocking and fully asynchronous interfaces.

* High level APIs that enable many things to be parallelized in a few lines
  of code.

* Share live parallel jobs with other users securely.  

* Dynamically load balanced task farming system.

* Robust error handling in parallel code.

The latest development version is always available from IPython's `Launchpad 
site <http://launchpad.net/ipython>`_.
