Hi @RyanDion., sorry for the late response and thank you for the feedback! I think the problem raises since Spyder uses sys.stdout when running from the IPython Console kernel (and your code reassing it then breaks things) 🤔
Maybe @ccordoba12 or @impact27 have some ideas about this? Maybe you have a more in depth explanation about the things that can and can't be done from code that interacts in some way with sys.stdout if run from the Spyder IPython Console?
