Sriram <sriramrathinav...@yahoo.com> added the comment: Hi,
How about changing pdb's behavior, that it disables readline only if the passed stream is not the stdout stream? Also when looking at doctest module, I found that bdb's trace_dispatch was overridden to set the debugger's output stream to something other than stdout. I presume, that since prior to 2.5, pdb never took the stdin and stdout arguments and that overridden method was needed to make pdb use a stream other than stdout, but now that 2.5 allows us to pass the output stream in init method of pdb, that function is no longer needed.
