How to use redirect_stdout in IJulia (Jupyter notebook)

New to Julia

The following redirect_stdout code works as expected in REPL

original_stdout = stdout
(rd, wr) = redirect_stdout()
println("123")
println("456")
redirect_stdout(original_stdout)
close(wr)
read(rd, String)

The output is "123\n456\n".

However, if we paste the above code into IJulia (a Jupyter notebook), the last line read will block. Any suggestions on using redirect_stdout in IJulia?

I’m experiencing the same issue. Would appreciate if anyone had a lead. I’m going to investigate more on that.
