1. there is no input prompt [xx]
2. no autocompletion,
3. some scripts does not output results, e.g., when input print ' helloworld', it just return a blank line.

Hi! I can confirm that Ipython is not currently working. It was basically a problem with the advancing versions of Ipython and fgallina python.el which I use.

The problem now is that the last python.el works only on emacs24 (and with it the Ipython configuration). Which emacs version are you using?

Hi Gabriel, I have been using your emacs for python settings for some time and it works great out of the box. Thanks for the awesome work. I had a few minor issues.

Just a quick question C-c ! doesn't fire ipython interpreter. How does one set it up?

Also, going to the shell (M-x shell) and then firing ipython interpreter doesn't have tab completion. Is there a fix for it?

Hi! Thank you very much!

To access the ipython interpreter you should:

1. Add to your .emacs (preferably after the emacs-for-python initialization) the line
   (epy-setup-ipython)
2. M-x python-shell-switch-to-shell. This should prompt a couple of questions and run an ipython shell.
3. If you likie, you can setup this code that binds the command C-c !to this command by adding to your .emacs this line:
   (global-set-key (kbd "C-c !") 'python-shell-switch-to-shell)

Tell me if this is working for you

Yes, it works really well. Thanks. It asks the following questions:

1. Make dedicated process? (y or n)
2. Run Python: ipython

Is it possible to automate the response to these questions?

[gabrielelanaro]

I don't think it's possible (I did a little research on google..). The problem is that this function call other functions (that call other functions etc...) and the questions are asked by some of those. So it's not easy to dig in and prevent those to ask questions.

Thanks a lot for checking on it. It was very helpful.
