Well, that's interesting, but how did you copy and paste?
Quick Python offers this, but no explanation how to copy and paste.
The %hist command can show you all previous input, without line numbers if desired (option -n) so you can directly copy and paste code either back in IPython or in a text editor. You can also save all your history by turning on logging via %logstart; these logs can later be either reloaded as IPython sessions or used as code for your programs.
Aside from that, here's an example of what I'd like to copy. If it doesn't make it through, it's just a screen capture of part of the window's contents show the result of ls, cd, etc.
Image above this.
Over and out ...

Good. Thanks. Interesting that ls and pwd are used for Win, but that's fine. How do I copy parts of the window? All I can do at the moment is sweep out a rectangular area with the mouse. It looks like I underestimated the need for automagic.

Depends on whether "automagic" is enabled or not. If automagic is OFF, you need to enter the %, as in %cd. If automagic is ON (the default), then you don't need to enter the %, as in cd.
automagic can be toggled on and off as follows:
In [8]: automagic
Automagic is OFF, % prefix IS needed for magic functions.
In [9]: %automagic
Automagic is ON, % prefix NOT needed for magic functions.
On my mac, I can change to my "home" directory as follows:
In [10]: cd
/Users/darnoldI can list the files in this directory with:
In [11]: ls
Desktop/ Movies/ context/
Documents/ Music/ java.log.344
Downloads/ NetBeansProjects/ java.log.415
Dropbox/ Pictures/ luatex-cache/
Library/ Public/ matlab_crash_dump.344
LizThesis/ Sites/ matlab_crash_dump.415I can cd into my Sites folder with:
In [12]: cd Sites
/Users/darnold/SitesI can get the current directory with:
In [13]: pwd
Out[13]: '/Users/darnold/Sites'I can move up a directory level with:
In [14]: cd ..
/Users/darnoldHope this helps.

I've seen the tutorial, but need something more. How do I know what
folder I'm in? How do I move from where I am to, for example,
C:\abc\def? So far I've tried various combinations like this:cd ..
cd C:\
pwd (yes, I know it's not windows)I tried %cd .., and that may have moved me but I seem to get back to the
same place.I seem to be in C:\Documents and Settings\administrator. If I doa %cp
..\\ it looks like I get to C:\, but follwing that with pwd gets me back
to where I started--C:\Documents and Settings\administrator.If I want to execute a program with %run, I need to be where abc.py is
or, perhaps say something like %run C:\myPyPrograms\abc.py.
Dir doesn't work and I haven't been able to even see what's in the folder.--
