Forcing prompt to be on newline when embedding Python with stdin/out redirection

Thu Jan 5 02:09:11 EST 2017

Hi,
I am working on embedding Python in my application. I have redirected
sys.stdin and sys.stdout to call methods from a Qt TextEdit widget.
Everything works fine except that the Python prompt does not always come in
a new line:
>>> dir()
['__builtins__', '__doc__', '__name__', '__package__']>>>
Why doesn't the prompt appear in a new line as with the default stdout?
Thanks,
Krishnan
