In my jupyter notebook the brackets auto-complete which I like.
If I go to the terminal and run jupyter qtconsole then my console opens. It is this version:
Jupyter QtConsole 4.2.1 Python 2.7.11 |Anaconda 2.1.0 (32-bit)| (default, Dec 6 2015, 18:08:45) Type "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
IPython 4.2.0 -- An enhanced Interactive Python.
In the qtconsole brackets do not autocomplete - neither do quotation marks. Can I turn them on?
I have the following files:
/home/myname/.jupyter/custom/custom.js
/home/jason/.ipython/profile_default/static/custom/custom.js
In custom.js I have the below - can I add to these files to get the autocomplete behaviour?
// leave at least 2 line with only a star on it below, or doc generation fails
/**
*
*
* Placeholder for custom user javascript
* mainly to be overridden in profile/static/custom/custom.js
* This will always be an empty file in IPython
*
* User could add any javascript in the `profile/static/custom/custom.js` file
* (and should create it if it does not exist).
* It will be executed by the ipython notebook at load time.
*
* Same thing with `profile/static/custom/custom.css` to inject custom css into the notebook.
*
* Example :
*
* Create a custom button in toolbar that execute `%qtconsole` in kernel
* and hence open a qtconsole attached to the same kernel as the current notebook
*
* $([IPython.events]).on('app_initialized.NotebookApp', function(){
* IPython.toolbar.add_buttons_group([
* {
* 'label' : 'run qtconsole',
* 'icon' : 'icon-terminal', // select your icon from http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/icons
* 'callback': function () {
* IPython.notebook.kernel.execute('%qtconsole')
* }
* }
* // add more button here if needed.
* ]);
* });
*
* Example :autoCloseBrackets: true,
*
* Use `jQuery.getScript(url [, success(script, textStatus, jqXHR)] );`
* to load custom script into the notebook.
*
* // to load the metadata ui extension example.
* $.getScript('/static/notebook/js/celltoolbarpresets/example.js');
* // or
* // to load the metadata ui extension to control slideshow mode / reveal js for nbconvert
* $.getScript('/static/notebook/js/celltoolbarpresets/slideshow.js');
*
*
* @module IPython
* @namespace IPython
* @class customjs
* @static

I am using this version
Jupyter QtConsole 4.3.0 Python 3.6.1 |Anaconda 4.4.0 (64-bit)| (default, May 11 2017, 13:25:24) [MSC v.1900 64 bit (AMD64)]
and autocomplete works fine for me on windows. Try pressing tab it will show you available options, just like linux.
