I just installed Fedora 24 with Emacs and IPython. When I launched the IPython shell in Emacs, the prompt symbol, which should be "In [1]", is displayed as "^[[?12l^[[?25h". Is there a way to solve this issue?

Which version of IPython are you using? If 5, then yes, it's most likely the same problem.– cjauvinCommented Jul 16, 2016 at 15:23

Thank you both! I guess I will use Python shell rather than IPython in my Emacs, but I will still use IPython in the Jupyter Notebook. Hope either Emacs or IPython will fix this compatibility issue.– htcaiCommented Jul 17, 2016 at 19:33

Thank you for the this post. It took me to an answer which I needed to modify.
Error I got was similar garbled (wierd) text when I opened IPYTHON with C-c C-p
on my simple python file print("hello World")
.
ppppprrrrriiiiinnnnnttttt((((("""""HHHHHeeeeellllllllllooooo
WWWWWooooorrrrrlllllddddd""""")))))))))))))))
Hello World
Solution verbatim as per @ricardoLima's answer didn't work for me. I had to re-write it as follows.
(setq python-shell-interpreter "/path/to/bin/ipython")
(setq python-shell-interpreter-args "--simple-prompt -i")
TIP:
Just use emacs -q
in the terminal to open a no-init emacs and run these commands with M-:
. M-x run-python
and you are good to go.
P.S.
