    <p>Hi I recently downloaded ipython 0.12.1 – April 2012 and got it to work under Windows' terminal. i.e. I open a command prompt and type ipython and then the ipython prompt appears.</p> <p>All good and dandy until I needed to use it in emacs. So before even trying to use the pyton-mode.el or ipython.el (which at the moment freeze my emacs ), I tried to do a M-x shell or M-x eshell and type ipython -i.</p> <p>This is the trace I get before a complete hang of the shell:</p> <p>ipython -i</p> <pre><code>Python 2.7.2 (default, Jun 12 2011, 15:08:59) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] Type "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

Defaulting color scheme to 'NoColor' </code></pre> <p>So why does it hang in the emacs shell and work in a regular command prompt. Do I need to change my default emacs shell? I also tried this on two different machines. Am I missing something?</p>
