  My problem is that I don't know how to make it accept spaces in the command to be run. This works: ipython3 --InteractiveShellApp.exec_lines='["print(2)"]' This does not work: ipython3 --InteractiveShellApp.exec_lines='["from math import *"]' The latter command results in the following error: [TerminalIPythonApp] CRITICAL | The 'exec_lines' trait of a TerminalIPythonApp instance must be a list, but a value of class 'str' (i.e. '["from') was specified.

    Rather than fiddling around with quoting bash, you can put the import line in a startup file: http://ipython.readthedocs.io/en/stable/interactive/tutorial.html#startup-files http://ipython.readthedocs.io/en/stable/interactive/tutorial...

      I see. I have iPython 5.1.0. Maybe there was a bug that has been fixed in yours.
