Hi, I'm using python27 on FreeBSD 8.1. I would like to change the behaviour of ^U at the Python prompt. By default, it deletes everything to the left of the cursor, but I want it to delete the _whole_ line, regardless of the current cursor position.
Nothing of the following works: - adding one of these lines to ~/.inputrc: "\C-u": kill-whole-line Control-u: kill-whole-line - adding "import readline" and one of these lines to ~/.pythonstartup: readline.parse_and_bind (r'"\C-u": kill-whole-line') readline.parse_and_bind (r'Control-u: kill-whole-line') The desired binding is never executed. When I run the "dump-functions" command, kill-whole-line is listed as unbound, and \C-u is still bound to unix-line-discard. Other key bindings that I added to ~/.pythonstartup and ~/.inputrc work fine. Only Control-U refuses to be bound to anything else than unix-line-discard. What am I doing wrong?
