I'm using ConEmu (which is already open for the task in this question) with running ipython. Now I want to run a command from a second programm (namely notepad++) to make my edited python script run within the conemu/ipython environment.
I'd like to use the magic ipython function %run blaa.py
so I'm looking for a command to simply paste a text into conemu where the actual cursor stands and run it (press enter).
I tried via Windows->Run (Ctrl+R) using:
conemu.exe /cmd "%run bla.py" -cur_console
but that does open a new tab in conemu and pasting it in there. But Id like to have it within ipython to run within the actual environment, i.e. the same should happen as if I would type "%run bla.py" within ipython myself manually.
Any ideas? Thanks
1Have you read about GuiMacro? – Maximus – 2014-06-13T11:44:37.250
No I always tried to inject something or do it via command line interface. But I'll have a look straight away, thanks for the hint, let's see what I can do with it :) – tim – 2014-06-13T11:48:38.130
COuldnt really figure out how this could help me. Do have another tip about how to use it in this case? :) Thanks!!!! – tim – 2014-06-13T17:44:40.323
@Maximus: Ok I read a lot about it. The documentation is not very verbose so it was very tough to figure it out. I have now the following:
C:\Program Files (x86)\ConEmu\ConEmu\ConEmuC.exe -GuiMacro:0 print("%run process.py");
unfortunately that doesn't automatically execute the line within ConEmu/IPython. I tried to add-GuiMacro:0 keys("{Enter}")
or; keys("{Enter}")
to that line to execute the statement "%run process.py" within ConEmu, but that doesn't press enter within ConEmu. Any ideas? Thanks a lot – tim – 2014-06-13T19:14:17.497Finally figured it out after hours. Answer posted below. – tim – 2014-06-13T19:28:26.550
Why you was trying curly brackets around "Enter"? Any suggestions about "verbosing"? – Maximus – 2014-06-13T22:02:15.313
Because here: https://code.google.com/p/conemu-maximus5/wiki/GuiMacro I have read
– tim – 2014-06-14T07:04:23.927Keys: Post special keystrokes to the console (AutoHotKey syntax)
and{Enter}
is AHK Syntax as far as I know ;-)Confused. AHK has too many syntaxes. E.g.
WheelDown::AltTab
,!{tab}
,^c
... Somewhere brackets used, somewhere not. – Maximus – 2014-06-14T10:58:23.273Yeah right, but that was the only hint I could figure out and like I said, I googled on how to send Enter via AHK and only found {Enter} for it. But now, I've figured it out finally by using \n, so everything alright now :-) – tim – 2014-06-14T11:19:26.547
