One of the reasons I'm reluctant to mess with the readline module more than necessary is that it's historically been fairly fragile: it has to work not only with a number of different GNU readline versions, but also with libedit on OS X and BSD (and OS X universal builds add an extra layer of complexity), and there have been a number of readline-related build problems in the past. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6786> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
