New submission from Shish <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: I have an app which wants to use a mostly curses interface with some parts readline, however, doing so much as "import readline" causes readline to claim ownership of sigwinch, thus breaking the ability of the app to resize.
Worse, it seems to claim it at the C level -- doing signal.getsignal (signal.SIGWINCH) returns SIG_DFL, so I can't see anything I can do at the python level to manually set the signals to be handled in the way I want :-/ I would think it best to set the handler at the start (for compatability, and because the vast majority of apps will expect it that way), but set it via python's signal module, so that app writers can take the signal handler and call it in their own way (In my case, I want the app to listen for the signal, and the app's handler will call readline's and curses's handlers in turn) ---------- components: Extension Modules messages: 73667 nosy: shish severity: normal status: open title: readline steals sigwinch type: behavior versions: Python 2.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3948> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
