New submission from Wolfgang Schnerring <wosc+pyt...@wosc.de>: When pdb is called from inside a doctest under python2.5, the readline keys do not work anymore -- like they did just fine in 2.4.
Steps to reproduce: 1. Create two files, foo.txt and foo.py, like so: $ cat > foo.txt >>> import pdb; pdb.set_trace() $ cat > foo.py import doctest; doctest.testfile('foo.txt') 2. run it $ python2.5 foo.py 3. If I now press Ctrl-P, I get "^P" printed on the prompt, instead of going back in the readline history. Likewise, the arrow keys print escape sequences instead of moving the cursor. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 85808 nosy: wosc severity: normal status: open title: doctest pdb readline broken type: behavior versions: Python 2.5 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5727> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
