Token-related utilities
3 Functions¶

-
IPython.utils.tokenutil.line_at_cursor(cell, cursor_pos=0)¶ Return the line in a cell at a given cursor position
Used for calling line-based APIs that don’t support multi-line input, yet.
Parameters: cell: text
multiline block of text
cursor_pos: integer
the cursor position
Returns: (line, offset): (text, integer)

-
IPython.utils.tokenutil.token_at_cursor(cell, cursor_pos=0)¶ Get the token at a given cursor
Used for introspection.
