A bash kernel for IPython

A Jupyter kernel for bash

This requires IPython 3.

To install:

pip install bash_kernel
python -m bash_kernel.install

To use it, run one of:

jupyter notebook
# In the notebook interface, select Bash from the 'New' menu
jupyter qtconsole --kernel bash
jupyter console --kernel bash
