I am trying to turn off the command line readline action.* If that were possible, it would be a big help to me. Does anyone know?
I am running Sage on a recent Ubuntu, using a recent install. I believe the readline behavior arises from pyreadline that comes in as part of ipython. I can find no documentation in ipython on how to stop readline while the repl is running (which would be ideal for me) and I tried putting in a configuration file pyreadlineconfig.ini and uncommenting its second line, but that had no effect that I could see. $ head -n2 $HOME/pyreadlineconfig.ini #Bind keys for exit (keys only work on empty lines disable_readline(True) #Disable pyreadline completely. I also had a look in the source but came away unenlightened. Thanks for any help. Jim *(The reason I want to turn off readlline is that I am using pyexpect to feed things to and read things from the Sage prompt and when the line is too long then I am getting responses filled with odd characters including lots of ^H's.) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-support" group.
