I am running on Windows and using JP Software’s Take Command version 10. I also like to use IPython.

When I invoke IPython from a TCC shell I have problems with aliases that shell out to TCC from IPython. For example, a simple ls command.

I discovered that the DOS/TCC environmental variable COMSPEC is set to a value that includes a space (C:\Program Files\JPSoft\TCMD10\TCC.EXE). If I set it to the 8.3 value (C:\PROGRA~1\JPSoft\TCMD10\tcc.exe) before invoking IPython, all is well.

I’m on Windows and I have created a virtualenv sandbox. I activate the sandbox and now I want to start up an IPython shell using the sandboxed environment. The following will do just that.

python -c "import IPython.Shell; IPython.Shell.IPShell().mainloop(sys_exit=1)"

thx to ThomasWaldmann on #python
