Merge pull request #764 from tchaikov/patch-1

fix "--colors=<color>" option in ipython.el

There's plenty more work to do getting ipython.el up to date, but at least this gets it running.

 ;;; Commentary
 ;; This library makes all the functionality python-mode has when running with
 ;; the normal python-interpreter available for ipython, too. It also enables a
 ;; persistent py-shell command history across sessions (if you exit python
 ;; with C-d in py-shell) and defines the command `ipython-to-doctest', which
 ;; can be used to convert bits of a ipython session into something that can be
 ;; used for doctests. To install, put this file somewhere in your emacs
 ;; `load-path' [1] and add the following line to your ~/.emacs file (the first
 ;; line only needed if the default (``"ipython"``) is wrong)::
 ;;
 ;;   (setq ipython-command "/SOME-PATH/ipython")
 ;;   (require 'ipython)
 ;;
 ;; Ipython will be set as the default python shell, but only if the ipython
 ;; executable is in the path. For ipython sessions autocompletion with <tab>
 ;; is also enabled (experimental feature!). Please also note that all the
 ;; terminal functions in py-shell are handled by emacs's comint, **not** by
 ;; (i)python, so importing readline etc. will have 0 effect.
 ;;
 ;; To start an interactive ipython session run `py-shell' with ``M-x py-shell``
 ;; (or the default keybinding ``C-c C-!``).
 ;;
 ;; You can customize the arguments passed to the IPython instance at startup by
 ;; setting the ``py-python-command-args`` variable.  For example, to start
 ;; always in ``pylab`` mode with hardcoded light-background colors, you can
 ;; use::
 ;;
-;; (setq py-python-command-args '("-pylab" "--colors" "LightBG"))
+;; (setq py-python-command-args '("--pylab" "--colors=LightBG"))
 ;;
 ;;
 ;; NOTE: This mode is currently somewhat alpha and although I hope that it
 ;; will work fine for most cases, doing certain things (like the
 ;; autocompletion and a decent scheme to switch between python interpreters)
 ;; properly will also require changes to ipython that will likely have to wait
 ;; for a larger rewrite scheduled some time in the future.
 ;;
 ;;
 ;; Further note that I don't know whether this runs under windows or not and
 ;; that if it doesn't I can't really help much, not being afflicted myself.
 ;;
 ;;
 ;; Hints for effective usage
 ;; -------------------------
 ;;
 ;; - IMO the best feature by far of the ipython/emacs combo is how much easier
 ;;   it makes it to find and fix bugs thanks to the ``%pdb on or %debug``/
 ;;   pdbtrack combo. Try it: first in the ipython to shell do ``%pdb on`` then
 ;;   do something that will raise an exception (FIXME nice example), or type
 ;;   ``%debug`` after the exception has been raised.  YOu'll be amazed at how
 ;;   easy it is to inspect the live objects in each stack frames and to jump to
 ;;   the corresponding sourcecode locations as you walk up and down the stack
 ;;   trace (even without ``%pdb on`` you can always use ``C-c -``
 ;;   (`py-up-exception') to jump to the corresponding source code locations).
 ;;
 ;; - emacs gives you much more powerful commandline editing and output searching
 ;;   capabilities than ipython-standalone -- isearch is your friend if you
 ;;   quickly want to print 'DEBUG ...' to stdout out etc.
 ;;
 ;; - This is not really specific to ipython, but for more convenient history
 ;;   access you might want to add something like the following to *the beggining*
 ;;   of your ``.emacs`` (if you want behavior that's more similar to stand-alone
 ;;   ipython, you can change ``meta p`` etc. for ``control p``)::
 ;;
 ;;         (require 'comint)
 ;;         (define-key comint-mode-map [(meta p)]
 ;;           'comint-previous-matching-input-from-input)
 ;;         (define-key comint-mode-map [(meta n)]
 ;;           'comint-next-matching-input-from-input)
 ;;         (define-key comint-mode-map [(control meta n)]
 ;;            'comint-next-input)
 ;;         (define-key comint-mode-map [(control meta p)]
 ;;            'comint-previous-input)
 ;;
 ;; - Be aware that if you customize py-python-command previously, this value
 ;;   will override what ipython.el does (because loading the customization
 ;;   variables comes later).
 ;;
 ;; Please send comments and feedback to the ipython-list
 ;; (<[e-mail]>) where I (a.s.) or someone else will try to
 ;; answer them (it helps if you specify your emacs version, OS etc;
 ;; familiarity with <http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html> might
 ;; speed up things further).
 ;;
 ;; Footnotes:
 ;;
 ;;     [1] If you don't know what `load-path' is, C-h v load-path will tell
 ;;     you; if required you can also add a new directory. So assuming that
 ;;     ipython.el resides in ~/el/, put this in your emacs:
 ;;
 ;;
 ;;           (add-to-list 'load-path "~/el")
 ;;           (setq ipython-command "/some-path/ipython")
 ;;           (require 'ipython)
 ;;
 ;;
 ;;
 ;;
 ;; TODO:
 ;;      - do autocompletion properly
 ;;      - implement a proper switching between python interpreters
 ;;
 ;; BUGS:
 ;;      - neither::
 ;;
 ;;         (py-shell "-c print 'FOOBAR'")
 ;;
 ;;        nor::
 ;;
 ;;         (let ((py-python-command-args (append py-python-command-args
