I am just starting to use python on the mac.
How do I get backspace, the arrows up/down and all the control like
ctrl-a to work nicely under the console.
for now I am getting a bunch of ^? ^[[A when I use any tcsh type of control.
thanks,
I believe you need to install readline support. You can get it through http://pythonmac.org/packages or via fink.
You will find the Pythonmac-SIG mailing list very helpful for questions about Python on the Macintosh. You can learn more at:
