Description Paul Eggleton 2017-10-02 22:54:32 UTC
If you type something into devpyshell that should trigger an exception, that exception isn't printed out, e.g:

--------- snip ---------
OE PyShell (PN = lsof)

pydevshell> powjdaowj
pydevshell> 
--------- snip ---------

There's a second or two delay before the prompt returns so I can see an exception is being generated, but it isn't shown.
