When clicking on the IPython Reference (under Help menu option), the html page mentioned in the Topic above resulted in a 404 file mnot found error.
Can you be more specific about this? Or add the specific version you have?
These are what I see under the ‘Help menu’ for the current offerings of JupyterLab and Jupyter Notebook and they don’t match what you are saying, or what you seem to say, in that I don’t see any mention of IPython. (JupyterLite looks similar.)
(JupyterLab version 4.5.1)
(Jupyter Notebook version 7.6.0a0)
I see it on python notebooks with jupyterlab 4.5.1
And I also get a 404.
Here is the origin of the entry.
Interesting. It seems somewhat context-dependent if you see the extended listing or not under ‘Help’ when viewing a .ipynb file. And because as spookster showed isn’t isolated to JupyterLab because it comes from the ipykernel, I just took this screenshot after opening a notebook in Jupyter Notebook Version 7.6.0a0 :
I got that when I choose a new notebook from the Jupyter Dashboard that came up from launching from here and then selecting the ipykernel from the dropdown when prompted from the modal.
The problem is that I don’t always get prompted. Sometimes it just opens ipykernel by default and you get the screenshot I included earlier where the listing is shorter. Weird. Maybe I was rushing taking screenshots and it hadn’t been added?
Anyway, @dsavage the way to fix the link would be to file an issue at the GitHub repo for the ipykernel where spookster linked and make a pull request for code with the fixed link, as the code is open source.
I didn’t mention that path to fixing the link earlier because I wasn’t seeing what was reported.
I cannot account for the inconsistency in long vs short listing I see at times. Unless I just wasn’t waiting long enough for the context to change?
Thanks @spookster for investigating apparently better than I did!
