## Classes

### `IPShellWidget`

class `IPython.gui.wx.ipython_view.``IPShellWidget`(parent, intro=None, background_color='BLACK', add_button_handler=None, wx_ip_shell=None, user_ns={}, user_global_ns=None)

  Bases: `wx._windows.Panel`

  This is wx.Panel that embbed the IPython Thread and the wx.StyledTextControl If you want to port this to any other GUI toolkit, just replace the WxConsoleView by YOURGUIConsoleView and make YOURGUIIPythonView derivate from whatever container you want. I’ve choosed to derivate from a wx.Panel because it seems to be more useful Any idea to make it more ‘generic’ welcomed.

  Bases: `wx.stc.StyledTextCtrl`

  Specialized styled text control view for console-like workflow. We use here a scintilla frontend thus it can be reused in any GUI that supports scintilla with less work.

  @cvar ANSI_COLORS_BLACK: Mapping of terminal colors to X11 names.
    (with Black background)

  @type ANSI_COLORS_BLACK: dictionary
