Ronald Oussoren <ronaldousso...@mac.com> added the comment: I wouldn't mind having a proper patch and doing away with the need for GNU's readline.
IMHO the patch should try to stay as close to GNU readline's interface as possible, and should therefore fix the off-by-one difference you mention. BTW. I suppose the configuration (readline.parse_and_bind) needs to be in libedit format rather than readline format. If so, we should add something to the readline documentation about that and possibly add something to the readline library to make it possible to detect if readline is ultimately linked to libedit. BTW. If you want to push the Apple's readline to the limit you should try if it works properly with ipython. It used to cause hard crashes with Apple's python in 10.5. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6872> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
