Leo already works with ipython, but I'm aware we are talking about ipython notebook here ;).
I think I did an experiment on this back in the day - it would involve launching "ipython kernel" (that hosts all the data, and that is used as a backend for the web frontend) in the Leo process. This would give ipython notebook access to Leo's dom, and Leo could access the cells in ipython notebook. On Wed, Jan 14, 2015 at 10:45 PM, Edward K.
