New submission from Daniel Harper <djharpe...@gmail.com>:
Hi there.
I recently downloaded the python 2.7 installer from the python website and
installed it on my Mac.
When I run python2.7 in interactive mode, the tab key doesn't seem to behave as
how it did in 2.6.
For example
>> def helloWorld(name):
>>
... ./
File "<stdin>", line 2
./
^
IndentationError: expected an indented block
When you hit tab it seems to think I want to browse the contents of the current
directory I'm in, rather than placing a tab character so I can quickly use
python in interactive mode to prototype stuff.
I'd imagine it's something to do with GNU readline, but I'm pretty sure I have
this installed
