Ronald Oussoren <ronaldousso...@mac.com> added the comment: I'm +1 on merging this functionality.
See also: issue6872 As I mentioned there we should ensure that readline linked to libedit has the same semantics as readline linked to GNU readline, and because the configuration file of libedit has a different format as the one of readline we should mention that in the documentation as well. It would also be nice if one could programmaticly detect if readline is linked to libedit, that way tools like ipython can load the right configuration files without user interaction. BTW. I'm pretty sure that the readline emultation on Leopard was pretty broken, ipython used to cause hard crashes with /usr/bin/python on Leopard. ---------- nosy: +ronaldoussoren _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6877> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
