[IPython-dev] %history and %rep

[Ville M. Vainio]

Here's an idea for uber replacement for %r:

%hist string

=> show list of history elements that match the pattern "string"

%rep 43

=> Run / get for editing line 43

%rep 3-5 7-8

run those lines. Like macro without, er, the macro.

Speaking of which, I'd also like to nuke / deprecate %history and
leave only %hist, in the name of general magic namespace depollution.
