Hi,
My normal prompt is "> ". When I start python interactively with
"python -i", the prompt is now set to ">>> ".
Everything works fine except when I try to recall the previous
commands with "comint-previous-input". The previous command is
restored to a position just after the first ">" sign.
Here are some examples.
bash prompt:
> oldCmdRecalled
python interactive:
>oldCmdRecalled>>
behavior I want:
>>> oldCmdRecalled
How do I dynamically set the buffer to accept ">>>" as a prompt and
restore commands in the correct spot?
THanks

Both shell-mode and inferior-python-mode are based on comint-mode, so
`C-h v comint-prompt-regexp'. But I suspect what you really want is
`M-x run-python'.

Instead of calling python -i in a shell, use `py-shell' if you use
python-mode or if you use python.el (the emacs default) `python-shell'.
NOTE:python-mode is much better, you can use it with ipython.
