This could be interesting! Personally, I don't have the resources to do the integration. But if there's anything missing into prompt_toolkit that would prevent a useful integration, I'd like to hear about that.
Thanks @jonathanslenders ! @ardagnir how difficult do you think it would be?
It shouldn't be too difficult. The main problem is that Athame is in C and prompt_toolkit is in python. The next step would probably be SWIG-wrapping Athame so that it can be called by other languages like python.
This is probably not worth the effort until https://github.com/ardagnir/athame/issues/50 is done, but once that happens, Athame support for IPython would be pretty awesome.
The prompt_toolkit project is getting a lot of traction and was chosen for IPython 5.0. It's written in pure, modern python so integrations should be relatively easy.
Is it possible to integrate with it?
@jonathanslenders what do you think?
Thanks!
