Run file execution fails (on Linux)

[FabianHofmann]

I am not sure what exactly introduced the error (I hope it was not changes I made in the settings) but the ordinary execution does not work anymore. Also seems to be related to #8

The file execution passes

%run /path/to/python-file.py \

to the console, which apparently does not work due to the escape character... Do you have a fix for that?

Error log:

In [3]: %run /home/bla/bla/file.py \

ValueError: No escaped character

Got it. The escape doesn't work for Linux. Will patch this when I got a chance.

[hoangKnLai]

@FabianHofmann, in the mean time you can instruct VSCode to use the prior working version of the extension.

[FabianHofmann]

@hoangKnLai thank you for the quick response!

[hoangKnLai]

Just patch this by removing the backlash. Please close issue if this fixes the problem. Thanks.

[FabianHofmann]

@hoangKnLai works like charm, I thank you very much!
