5.4.0
IPython 5.4-LTS 支持在 IPython 6.0 和 6.1 中创建的大部分新的暴露的 API 添加，并避免根据 IPython 的版本编写条件逻辑。
6.1.0
Quotes in a filename are always escaped during tab-completion on non-Windows.
Variables now shadow magics in autocompletion.
Added the ability to add parameters to alias_magic. For example:
In [2]: %alias_magic hist history --params "-l 2" --line
Created `%hist` as an alias for `%history -l 2`.
In [3]: hist
%alias_magic hist history --params "-l 30" --line
%alias_magic hist history --params "-l 2" --line
Previously it was only possible to have an alias attached to a single function, and you would have to pass in the given parameters every time:
In [4]: %alias_magic hist history --line
Created `%hist` as an alias for `%history`.
In [5]: hist -l 2
hist
%alias_magic hist history --line
To suppress log state messages, you can now either use %logstart -q, pass--LoggingMagics.quiet=True on the command line, or set c.LoggingMagics.quiet=True in your configuration file.
An additional flag --TerminalInteractiveShell.term_title_format is introduced to allow the user to control the format of the terminal title. It is specified as a python format string, and currently the only variable it will format is {cwd}.
??/%pinfo2 will now show object docstrings if the source can’t be retrieved.
IPython.display has gained a %markdown cell magic.
%config options can now be tab completed.
%config with no arguments are now unique and sorted.
Completion on keyword arguments does not duplicate = sign if already present.
%run -m
completer now understand “snake case auto complete”: if foo_bar_kittens is a valid completion, I can type f_b
tracebacks are better standardized and will compress /path/to/home to ~.
IPython 是 Python 的原生交互式 shell 的增强版，可以完成许多不同寻常的任务，比如帮助实现并行化计算；主要使用它提供的交互性帮助，比如代码着色、改进了的命令行回调、制表符完成、宏功能以及改进了的交互式帮助。
