Anyone know what's up with environment variables when using ipython?
When I type 'env' and hit return I get a dictionary full of useful
information (trimmed for brevity):
In [1]: env
Out[1]:
{'EDITOR': '/usr/bin/vim',
[...]
'_': '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/Current/bin/ipython',
'__CF_USER_TEXT_ENCODING': '0x1F5:0:0'}
But then when try to access the information in the dictionary it
doesn't seem to exist:
In [2]: env['EDITOR']
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
exceptions.NameError Traceback (most
recent call last)
/Users/destiney/<ipython console>
NameError: name 'env' is not defined
Thanks,
