[IPython-user] ipython1-cocoa branch

[Barry Wark]

I've created an ipython1-cocoa branch on launchpad.net for developing
the cocoa frontend for ipython1. It adds an IEngineInteractive
interface and InteractiveEngine implementation (as well as associated
tests) to ipython1.kernel.engineservice as well as
ipython1.frontend.cocoa.cocoa_frontend and tests.
ipython1.frontend.cocoa.cocoa_frontend contains a Cocoa wrapper for
InteractiveEngine and a delegate to turn an NSTextView (the standard
text view in Cocoa) into an interactive terminal-style prompt for the
InteractiveEngine service. The ipython1.frontend.cocoa.examples
directory contains an XCode project of an app that uses the frontend
to provide an interactive prompt and namespace display.

I propose this as a starting point for a cocoa frontend for ipython1.
The only potentiall sticky points are the additions to
ipython1.kernel.engineservice. Please let me know what y'all think.
