You may find interesting to look at the source code for plac (http:// micheles.googlecode.com/hg/plac/doc/plac_adv.html). The readline support (including command history and autocompletion) is implemented in the ReadlineInput class (see http://code.google.com/p/micheles/source/browse/plac/plac_ext.py). If you just want command history you can use rlwrap (http:// freshmeat.net/projects/rlwrap). -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
