[IPython-user] Debugging with IPython

[Yang Zhang]

I realize that IPython is a shell, and (at least AFAIK) not a debugger, 
so I shouldn't expect to be able to use it as a replacement for pdb's 
facilities for stepping through lines, navigating stack frames, etc. 
However, is there any way to use IPython to inspect/manipulate the 
environment once an application reaches a certain point?  Thanks in advance.
