Module: sphinxext.ipython_console_highlighting

reST directive for syntax-highlighting ipython interactive sessions.

XXX - See what improvements can be made based on the new (as of Sept 2009) ‘pycon’ lexer for the python console. At the very least it will give better highlighted tracebacks.

1 Class

class IPython.sphinxext.ipython_console_highlighting.IPythonConsoleLexer(**options)

Bases: pygments.lexer.Lexer

For IPython console output or doctests, such as:

In [1]: a = 'foo'

Notes:

• Tracebacks are not currently supported.
