Request: ability to execute code on a remote IPython server

roger

A lot of people are interested in NumPy/Matplotlib support, and I think if Pythonista could execute code on a remote server that has those, then that'd be a practical compromise.

AFAIK IPython makes this fairly straightforward to do and stuff like plots can be forwarded to a client. IPython Notebook currently works via the web interface, but it's not as nice as Pythonista's.

You can do it yourself, just use xmlrpclib module.

Sure I could hack something together, but it wouldn't be nearly as nice.
