Oops - crash on IPython 7 #21

Description

@matthew-brett

I have extra need of readline, now prompt_toolkit seems to be broken for IPython 7:

ipython/ipython#1133

But sadly, with IPython 7, current rlipython

$ ipython
Python 3.6.4 (default, Mar 22 2018, 14:11:17) 
Type 'copyright', 'credits' or 'license' for more information
IPython 7.0.1 -- An enhanced Interactive Python. Type '?' for help.

If you suspect this is an IPython bug, please report it at:
    https://github.com/ipython/ipython/issues
or send an email to the mailing list at ipython-dev@python.org

You can print a more detailed traceback right now with "%tb", or use "%debug"
to interactively debug it.

Extra-detailed tracebacks for bug-reporting purposes can be enabled via:
    %config Application.verbose_crash=True

I did try patching it up, but I soon got lost. But I tried. Honest.

    Yeah the transformer APi have been changed to be simpler. rl ipython have not been updated to use it.

    As I understand it, rlipython is not usable with ipython 7.x? I have the same problem.

    rlipython rocks! It was the only way I found to make emacs work with ipython 6.2.1 and have completion in the inferior shell. But you guys know this already. Why why why was prompt toolkit brought it without providing for readline? There are a lot of us emacs/python folks out here still right? Maybe not in 20 years... :)

    great. so now I can't use ipython, 'cos it crashes on startup.

    You do realize that you - the rlipython programmers - have ruined ipython for everyone who has installed rlipython?

    I'm trying to find a fix, but haven't gotten too far yet. Just some notes in case anyone else wants to keep on with this:
    input_splitter is now a property of InteractiveShell that points to inputtransformer2.TransformerManager. I'm not sure which method of that to use instead of push, though... that will take some more reading.

    EDIT: maybe this is the wrong bug/issue/ticket

    I don't know if this helps, but after I tried to uninstall rlipython:

    $ python -m pip uninstall rlipython
    WARNING: Skipping rlipython as it is not installed.
    

    I still cannot use ipython:

    $ ipython3
