I like this change, but could you make it clearer in the help docs that quiet means to suppress the history lines specifically? A user will still see any output from the command, right? "Quiet" usually implies that all regular output will be suppressed (i.e. non-errors) or maybe just lower verbosity.

Documentation tone can often be the hardest part of a contribution. I've reworded this, but let me know if it's still not quite right, or feel free to specify wording yourself if you'd like.

Thanks, nice work on the support functions like capture_output! ;)

This allows the rerun magic to be run in quiet mode, which suppresses the `=== Executing: ===` and `=== Output: ===` headings as well as the text of the cell being re-run. This means that cells that print can optionally be re-run as part of a larger control structure like a loop without IPython-specific noise.

I'm struggling to fix the sphinx build issue on Py3.7 here. I can't seem to build the docs locally, but I tried adding a newline to the options section as the output suggested to no effect. |
