Due to the fact that iTerm2 is crashing more and more often, I decided yesterday to put my python console inside a tmux window & at the same time launching pylab instead of a simple ipython console.
So in the iTerm2 conf we can launch a command to do that but it wasn’t working by containing the command inside single quotation marks. here’s the command:
/usr/local/bin/tmux -l new -s pylab "/usr/local/bin/ipython --pylab"
