I was just looking for recall in the current session, although the stdlib docs have an example of recall across sessions ( http://docs.python.org/lib/readline-example.html ). On Linux, it seems you have to explicitly import readline in order to get command history, although my application was also redirecting sys.stdout, which was also causing problems. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
