If I "run" a script which has a syntax error, I get prompted if I want
to enter an editor. I usually say "n", and then the 'n' is in my
readline input history. So when I do uparrow to rerun the script, I
get the 'n' and not the run command
In [1]: cat test.py
if 1:
print 'hi!'
print 'oops!'
else:
print 'bye!'
In [2]: run test.py
------------------------------------------------------------
File "test.py", line 3
print 'oops!'
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
WARNING: Failure executing file: <test.py>
Return to editor to correct syntax error? [Y/n] n
In [3]: n #<--- UP ARROW
What is the magic config setting to disable the editor input
prompting altogether.
In [4]: IPython.__version__
Out[4]: '0.7.2.svn'
