Thanks Fernando,
I now tried %who.
The result was a huge output, apparently containing all the pylab functions.
This is exactly the thing I was trying to avoid.
I wanted to use the who command to see only the variables I defined as part
of the pylab session.
Is there a way to do just this ?
thank
Eli Brosh
