Replace the default flask shell command with a similar one running PTPython. Inspired by flask-shell-ipython by @ei-grad.

flask-shell-ptpython is on PyPI, so all you have to do is:

$ pip install flask-shell-ptpython

flask-shell-ptpython hooks itself into Flask through an entry point, so all you have to do is:

$ flask shell

If you prefer BPython you can use flask-shell-bpython, while if you prefer IPython you can use flask-shell-ipython.
