Description

@matthewgson

Type: Bug

Behaviour

While browsing .py in editor, hitting shift+enter should execute the line in the terminal and show results immediately.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Create empty .py file
  2. Write a code
  3. Hit Shift + enter
  4. Line of code and execution result should be visible on the terminal

It was actually ran, and visible only after interacting with the interpreter.
