I would like the Python inferior process to start (if it is not already running) whenever I create a python-mode
buffer (for example, by visiting a .py file).
Some functions in anaconda-mode etc. depend on an inferior Python process running. Also, I want to be able to C-c C-c and see the output.
Everything works fine if I create the python-mode
buffer, then manually run M-x run-python.
However, if I run (add-hook 'python-mode-hook 'run-python)
, then create a python-mode
buffer, I get no inferior Python process but this error:
Wrong number of arguments: (1 . 3), 0
I don't know if it's relevant, but I have this in my custom.el
:
(defvar python-shell-interpreter "ipython")
(defvar python-shell-interpreter-args "-i")
I had thought that this question would help but it doesn't.
Please could you advise how to create an inferior Python process if it is not already running? Thanks in advance.
