Thanks for the link! I was not aware of sys._getframe.
Building on it, I currently have a pure Python implementation that
seems to work fine (doctests+interpreter+notebook), though it uses a
not-so-nice heuristic.
See #7776 and #7777 ( cool number :-) ) for an application.
As the code says: better suggestions welcome!
Cheers,
Nicolas
