How to configure IPython 5 for IPython 3 syntax highlighting, syntax highlighting, etc.? (Self.IPython)

I know that at some point I might want to “upgrade”, but for now I just need an old look and feel.

I know that IPython is very customizable, but I was not very lucky to find the right settings.

(By the way, this applies only to the IPython interactive terminal)

Start by creating your default iPython profile. From your shell, type:

$ ipython profile create

This should result in a result similar to this, assuming someuser :

 [ProfileCreate] Generating default config file: u'/home/someuser/.ipython/profile_default/ipython_config.py'

Open the newly created file with your favorite text editor, in the example above, shown as: /home/someuser/.ipython/profile_default/ipython_config.py

Add the bottom lines below:

 c.TerminalInteractiveShell.colors = 'NoColor' c.TerminalInteractiveShell.display_completions = 'readlinelike'

Save the file.

It should be like that. Changes should be active in new iPython sessions.
