Martin Panter added the comment: V3 of my patch skips the Readline tests in cases involving non-ASCII bytes when the locale seen by Readline would be ASCII. Readline may translate the non-ASCII bytes to escape sequences, and treat them as special Meta (Alt) key combinations. This behaviour depends on Readline configuration (“set convert-meta off” in /etc/inputrc in my case).
It also includes a potential workaround for Android, depending on the resolution of Issue 28997. ---------- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file46296/input-readline.v3.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13886> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
