With \u003cTAB\u003e I mean I press the TAB key at that point, to have ipython complete that string part of the full path.\r\n\r\nCheers!\r\n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/michaelaye","@type":"Person","name":"michaelaye"},"datePublished":"2017-04-06T19:55:15.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":5},"url":"https://github.com/10427/ipython/issues/10427"}
