Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Documentation Group: Python 2.4 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Thom Harp (thomharp) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: readline module description should mention raw_input() Initial Comment: The description of the readline module in the library reference should mention that it alters the behavior of the input() and raw_input() functions. Without this change, it isn't obvious how to use readline to provide a command line in applications. The information requested *is* in the docs where input() and raw_input() are described, but an inexperienced python programmer, just learning his way around the standard library, won't know that and may conclude that the readline module exists only because it's used for interactive python. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1529157&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
