When executing a python file or command it works
but when starting a python shell and interacting with it I'm not getting
any output

1> Port = open_port({spawn, "python -c \"print 1\""}, [binary,
exit_status]).
#Port<0.586>
2> flush().
Shell got {#Port<0.586>,{data,<<"1\n">>}}
Shell got {#Port<0.586>,{exit_status,0}}
ok
