I know that Ipython is a powerful python shell. And when I input some shell commands, it works well. However, when I write the same shell commands in vim and run it in Ipython, there is 'SyntaxError'. For example,when I input ‘!ps’ in Ipython, it gives the right answer. However,When I write '!ps' in vim and run it in Ipython, it gives 'SyntaxError'. How can I run python scripts combined with some shell commands in Ipython?

You mean IPython first, `!vim` in IPython and `!ps` in vim, or what? – Michał Górny Sep 05 '12 at 11:05
Are you saving a python file containing `!ps` and then trying to run it with `ipython myfile.py` ? – moopet Sep 05 '12 at 11:18
Yes, you are right! I know what is wrong. I must save it in myfile.ipy!! – xiuxing Sep 05 '12 at 11:58
