the [IPython Notebook](http://ipython.org/notebook.html) with PyLab plot support:

{% highlight bash %}
$ PYSPARK_DRIVER_PYTHON=ipython PYSPARK_DRIVER_PYTHON_OPTS="notebook --pylab inline" ./bin/pyspark
$ PYSPARK_DRIVER_PYTHON=ipython PYSPARK_DRIVER_PYTHON_OPTS="notebook" ./bin/pyspark
{% endhighlight %}

After IPython Notebook server is launched, you can create a new "Python 2" notebook from "Files" tab. Inside the notebook, you can input the '%pylab inline' command as part of your notebook before you start to try spark from IPython notebook.
