Hi,
I use emacs with ipython (or I would like to) on a GNU/linux machine. To 
be able to use it from the ipython shell through %ed I added the 
following lines to my .bashrc file,

export LESS="-R"
export EDITOR=emacs

this seemed to work as when I try %ed filename it opens and is editable 
in the ipython shell. However I cant quit out of emacs to run my 
changes. I've tried Control-x Control-c but it doesnt work. Anyone know 
how I can exit?????
Thanks
D
