Completion now works, though there's one very minor oddity. Sometimes, when I press TAB to complete, the completion does what it's supposed to do, but in addition I get a new input line, as if I'd previously pressed Return without any text.

For example,

In [2]: import numpy as np

In [3]: a = np.ar[now press TAB]

A completion window opens fine, but the shell window now shows

In [2]: import numpy as np

In [3]: 
In [4]: a = np.ar

Every time I press TAB, I get another blank input line inserted before the current line.

If I only get as far as typing "np.a" before pressing TAB, I don't get another input line. Minor, as I said, but odd...

thanks,

Title:
  ipython prompt missed

Status in An Emacs mode for editing Python code:
  New

Bug description:
  I just installed python-mode 6.0.4 in Emacs 23.4 under OS X, and was
  happy to see that completion at the command prompt works very nicely.
  However, I then switched to using ipython rather than python as the
  shell (by editing py-shell-name). ipython is invoked fine, but when I
  try to complete using TAB, I think it has trouble understanding the
  ipython prompt, throwing up the following error:

  
  Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "No prompt found or `comint-prompt-regexp' not set properly")
    signal(error ("No prompt found or `comint-prompt-regexp' not set properly"))
