I need an input function with GNU readline support. So far I have: import readline readline.parse_and_bind("tab: complete")
file = raw_input('File to send: ') Cursor keys are working, but TAB-completion works only in the current directory. Example: File to send: [TAB][TAB] argv.py error.py md5b64.py x.py Python_Cookbook.pdf bookmarks fexit.py murksigkeiten _.py compile.py https.py wcp File to send: /tmp/[TAB][TAB] argv.py error.py md5b64.py x.py Python_Cookbook.pdf bookmarks fexit.py murksigkeiten _.py compile.py https.py wcp Is there a way to make TAB-completion work for other directories, too? -- Ullrich Horlacher Server und Virtualisierung Rechenzentrum IZUS/TIK E-Mail: horlac...@tik.uni-stuttgart.de Universitaet Stuttgart Tel: ++49-711-68565868 Allmandring 30a Fax: ++49-711-682357 70550 Stuttgart (Germany) WWW: http://www.tik.uni-stuttgart.de/ -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
