Looks good so far! - You could [set](http://www.ece.northwestern.edu/local-apps/matlabhelp/techdoc/ref/set.html) a property on `0` during kernel startup and check for that property in the script. - We don't currently support `update_display`, but...

> Ok cool, so you mean add something like 'UserData': 'jupyter' to the default properties dictionary in handle_plot_settings? Yeah, that sounds right.

Which version of `zeromq` is this? `conda info zeromq`.

Here are the instructions for turning off autosave: https://stackoverflow.com/a/45980165/2814123

Is there a lot of output associated with the cells?

Ah, it looks like this is a known issue with `libzmq` on Windows: https://github.com/zeromq/libzmq/issues/1808

Does it happen if you use the Python kernel?

Do you mind trying with [Calysto Bash](https://github.com/Calysto/calysto_bash)? It is also based on `metakernel`, and we could narrow down our potential sources of error.

Oh wow, you are quite right. Looks like that kernel needs some updating. In the mean time you could try https://github.com/Calysto/calysto_prolog.

I updated the bash kernel, if you'd like to give that a try again.
