Hi all, I'm looking at building an interactive session in front of some rdfobj instances. I've used cmd and just found code.Interactive*.
Protocol doesn't matter, I'm looking at the UI possibilities. History is nice to have and my intention is to write output of the session to stdin/stderr. However, my question, can I change the "prompt" string in respond to user input using readline? AFAIK I'll need curses to do this? And colored prompts? Example: the prompt, say '>>>', would change depending on wether I type '<', '@' or ':' (and autocompletion libraries change too) . I sometimes see some fancy shell output ('percentage loaded'-bars, etc) and I'm wondering how to do this with python and what it does to stdout. Any pointers? regards, Berend PS: please cc, I'm not on list -- web, http://dotmpe.com () ASCII Ribbon email, berend:dotmpe:com /\ irc, berend/mpe at irc.oftc.net -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
