stderr missing in IPython + Emacs + WinXP

[Jie Tang]

WinXP Pro SP2
Emacs 22.1
ipython.el
python-mode.el

stderr doesn't show up when using IPython with ipython.el inside Emacs.

e.g.:

In [2]: from sys import stderr,stdout

In [3]: stdout.write('\nfoo\n')

foo

In [4]: stderr.write('\nbar\n')

In [5]:

It seems like sys.stderr has some buffering issues; if I flush the stream using stderr.flush() after writing to it the text displays.

In [6]: stderr.flush()

bar

In [7]:

As a workaround I added calls to

Term.cout.flush()
Term.cerr.flush()

right before IPython's "In[]" input prompt is displayed (around line 1675 in iplib.py)

This workaround didn't fix this problem for me.

WinXP Pro SP2
Emacs 22.1.1
ipython.el 2927
python-mode.el 4.75
pyreadline 1.3 or trunk (post-1.5)

Any thoughts on this from Windows/Emacs users?
