A Pygments plugin for IPython code & console sessions

IPython is an interactive Python shell. Among other features, it adds some special convenience syntax, including %magics, !shell commands and help?. This package contains lexers for these, to use with the Pygments syntax highlighting package.

  • The ipython lexer should be used where only input code is highlighted
  • The ipythonconsole lexer works for an IPython session, including code, prompts, output and tracebacks.

These lexers were previously part of IPython itself (in IPython.lib.lexers), but have now been moved to a separate package.
