Multiples prompts on Python Shell

humitos commented 8 years ago

I don't know, but when I press C-c C-z to open a Python interactive shell I get this:

Python 2.7.6 (default, Jun 22 2015, 17:58:13) 
[GCC 4.8.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> >>> >>> >>>

The issue here is that 4 prompts are printed there.

If I do M-x elpy-uses-ipython I get this:

Python 2.7.6 (default, Jun 22 2015, 17:58:13) 
Type "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

IPython 4.2.0 -- An enhanced Interactive Python.

object?   -> Details about 'object', use 'object??' for extra details.

Do you know why?

Maybe it's related with: https://github.com/jorgenschaefer/elpy/issues/733

Just in case, all my settings are at: https://github.com/humitos/emacs-configuration

Keen observation :-)

This seems like a bug in emacs itself.

Indeed. Emacs sends some initialization code (mainly to allow tab completion) to the Python interpreter, which results in those extraneous prompts.
