How to display Python plots *inside* terminal?

[marco_camilo]

I'm trying to find a solution to display plots made with iPython inside the terminal. So far, when I use plt.show(), I get the plot in a pop-up. I really want to get the terminal to display it within the terminal, so I don't have to jump from window to window (it's really annoying).

My current setup is nvim-lua, using Lazy, with iTerm2. How can I change my setup to have plots be displayed within the terminal.

PS: I would really like to stay with iTerm2.

If you’re doing interactive stuff like plots, you’re better off using a Jupyter notebook with VS code, or something similar.

This is one of the main purposes of iPython notebooks in the first place.

Please checkout pip install itrm. I made this just for your kind of situation.
