Have recently moved from XP to Ubuntu Linux.
Successfully installed Python 3.1.1 in the Ubuntu 9.04
release on my desktop.
Problem is the python interactive terminal >>> .
Many of the keys now do not work.
eg pressing left-arrow yields ^[[D
right-arrow ^[[C
Home ^[OH
Del ^[[3~
up-arrow ^[[A
Frustrating as I use all these , esp up-arrow to
repeat recent lines. Found the same thing on
my sons MacBook.
This is not mentioned in two recent Python books
or one on Ubuntu. Nor could I found help on the www.
Is there any work-around ? Should I just forget
the python prompt >>> ?
Thanks, Dave pdlem...@earthlink.net
