This is an attempt to fix this long running issue. Namely that there is no way to create cells programmatically. If there's a way to set the next input, I think it stands to reason there should be a way to run it. Quite a people on StackOverflow have asked this question too.
ipython/ipython#4983
This adds a new event type called
run_next_inputas an alternative toset_next_input.I have also made a corresponding PR on the Jupyter notebook repository to handle this.
I am also looking into how I can add
run_next_inputto the base interactive shell class.Thanks for looking at this. I appreciate I might not be going down the correct channels for this kind of change, but I'd love to know your thoughts.
