IPython on resizeable Win32 Console If you are on win32, you might want to use Console, an open source replacement for that inflexible old win32 terminal. Here's how. Install IPython using the .exe installer. Download stable version of Console (1.5 at this time). Create a shortcut to console.exe, right-click -> properties. Set target to e.g. C:\opt\Console\console.exe -c "/k python c:\python25\scripts\ipython.py -p sh" you can also create a tab dedicated to Ipython (and have other dedicated to other shells or command-line app). go to edit->settings->tabs : click on the add button and fill the following fields : * title : ipython ico : C:\Python24\py.ico shell : cmd.exe /k "ipython" start-up dir : whatever is good for you. note that python.exe need to be in the path Using IPython with Version 2 of Console use the -r option for creating the shortcut, e.g. C:\opt\Console2\console.exe -r "/k python c:\python25\scripts\ipython.py -p sh" Some advantages of Console2 over normal console (for IPython use) Distinctive taskbar icon Can reside in system tray There are many other benefits, so it's well worth setting up Example config for Console-2.00b120-Beta (you need to edit the xml file): http://vvtools.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/config/console.xml If you have problems with ctrl+C killing Console2 immediately, launch ipython from a normal Console2 session manually.

SendKeys SendKeys(keys, pause = 0.05, with_spaces = False, with_tabs = False, with_newlines = False, turn_off_numlock = True) Parameters keys : str A string of keys. pause : float The number of seconds to wait between sending each key or key combination. with_spaces : bool Whether to treat spaces as {SPACE}. If False, spaces are ignored. with_tabs : bool Whether to treat tabs as {TAB}. If False, tabs are ignored. with_newlines : bool Whether to treat newlines as {ENTER}. If False, newlines are ignored. turn_off_numlock : bool Whether to turn off NUMLOCK before sending keys.
