Choose ipython kernel at runtime?

[jdavidheiser]

Perhaps I'm being really dense, but is there a way to choose which ipython kernel to connect to? I am really loving this interface as a way to conduct quick explorations while I've got a notebook open, and then copy my results back into the notebook after I've used the interactive features to figure out how to do something. However, if I've got more than one notebook open, there are several kernels, and I'm not sure how to tell bipython which to connect to.

Perhaps a dialog, on launch, to select which kernel to use would be useful, or an ipython magic function to launch bipython connected to the current kernel, or an implementation of the --existing flag?

I realize that this project is reasonably early in development, without a big team, but I absolutely love it, and hope it takes off in a big way! Great work.

it's not you, it's me. The functionality you seek simply hasn't been exposed yet.
