Description 

Hi all,

Introducing a Windows-using colleague to ChimeraX today, we found that any exception raised while using the Jupyter console (e.g. calling a non-existent method) effectively crashes it (still visible, but no longer usable).

Cheers,

Tristan

Am investigating. As a (bad) workaround, you can close the crippled shell window and open a new one.

This should be fixed in Python 3.6, which Greg is working on getting into ChimeraX as we speak. Will close this ticket once that version is available.

It _is_ fixed by Python 3.6
