misspelled keyword arg in qtconsole.util.compute_item_matrix

[martsenecal]

expected args & kwargs the compute_item_matrix are:

def compute_item_matrix(items, empty=None, *, separator_size=2, displaywith=80)

Consumers of this function (eg. completion_html.CompletionHtml.show_items, line 315) call on it with the correctly spelled keyword, 'displaywidth'.

As well, within the compute_item_matrix function itself, line 195, it tries to pass on displaywith to another function using the correctly spelled keyword, displaywidth, which it doesn't have.

I fixed the misspelled keyword in my local copy of util.py, and as expected, it resolved the issue and no longer raises a TypeError exception crashing the instance.

*** quick test (after fixing spelling) ***

Hey @martsenecal, thanks for reporting. This is a duplicate of issue #591 and fixed in our latest version (5.5.1), so please update to that version.
