shell_plus interactive shell doesn't work properly in windows10?

shell_plus doesn’t work well in windows 10 (using git-bash application`)

• tab doesn’t support completion (It just works as tab, which is 4 spaces indentation, even after my_variable.<tab>)
• Interactive shell line is not colorful (just grey)
• input cursor can go anywhere…

Belows are my trials:

1. django-extensions == 2.1.1 & python manage.py shell_plus
2. django-extensions == 2.26. & python manage.py shell_plus --ipython

Phenomenons:

Interesting thing is that

1. With same trials in Linux(Ubuntu 16.04) it works well… 2. python manage.py shell_plus --notebook works well in jupyter
2. When running ipython in the shell(not shell_plus), then interactive shell works well as it meant to be(supporting tab autocompletion etc)

Why does it happen?

[rightx2]

Oops,

1. manage.py shell: issues
2. manage.py shell_plus: issues
3. ipython: works well

So, it indicates that this is not just django-extensions issues, right?

That’s a shame, since you should use Python 3.7 (or even better 3.8) and not the much older 3.5 😃

Sorry I do not own any Windows to test this out… a PR with test case would be much appreciated.
