thanks for these suggestions Peter, I have had exactly the same problem
and was looking for a way around it -- this will be very helpful.

ps: for some reason I am unable to post to the
gmane.comp.python.ipython.user group. For one I can't install the
Windows version of iPython (Linux works superfine :-)

loading program's global variables in ipython

[per]

hi all,

i have a file that declares some global variables, e.g.

myglobal1 = 'string'
myglobal2 = 5

and then some functions. i run it using ipython as follows:

[1] %run myfile.py

i notice then that myglobal1 and myglobal2 are not imported into
python's interactive namespace. i'd like them too -- how can i do
this?

 (note my file does not contain a __name__ == '__main__' clause.)

thanks.

These aren't declarations, this is exectutable code.

I'm not familiar with IPython, but perhaps 'from myfile import *'
would do what you want?
