Enhancements are out of date for 2.x and OP will not pursue for 3.x, and should be a separate issue anyway. -- nosy: +terry.reedy resolution: - fixed stage: - resolved status: open - closed ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue5833 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue5833] readline update
Antoine Pitrou pit...@free.fr added the comment: Antoine: do you think it's worth the effort? As mentioned above, the readline 6 compatibility code was checked in. The ClassType expansion is 2.x-only, so probably can't go in since it's a feature request. What remains is the filename expansion. However, the problem is that it seems to rely on removing '~$-/' from the word break characters, which is IMO wrong (at least '-', '/' and '~' are all Python operators which should be considered word break characters). -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue5833 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

J. Evans jreva...@earthlink.net added the comment: I have no problem splitting the patch into multiple files. When I do so, do I place them here or open separate tickets for each component? Or if you guys want to just close out the ticket since the actual bug was fixed, I am okay with that too. We will probably continue to use the patched version of tabexpand for our users since the filename expansion is used quite heavily. And since we will not be transitioning to py3k anytime in the next several years, we have no issue with what is (or is not) implemented there. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue5833 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Sandro Tosi sandro.t...@gmail.com added the comment: How should we move forward with this issue? J Evens: are you willing to split the patch in smaller ones that can be more easily managed/reviewed/applied? Antoine: do you think it's worth the effort? I can also try to split the patch, but what branch should I target: py3k? -- nosy: +sandro.tosi ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue5833 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Antoine Pitrou pit...@free.fr added the comment: The patch should be broken into several, one for each bug fix or enhancement. Remarks and questions: - is the readline v6.x fix (which I'm interested in) compatible with previous readline versions? - what does removes '~$-/' from the completer chars list to make the next item work mean exactly? is it a bugfix or a new feature? - I'm not sure filename completion is uncontroversial, it's the kind of advanced features which we usually let third-party tools (e.g. IPython) handle if they want to; it may also cause spurious IOs and error messages -- nosy: +pitrou priority: - normal type: - behavior versions: +Python 2.7, Python 3.1, Python 3.2 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue5833 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

J. Evans jreva...@earthlink.net added the comment: Some clarification about the rest of the patch: -- We tested the readline fix with version 5.2 and it seemed to work, we did not do a thorough test with it, or with any other version. -- When I supplied the patch I supplied the patch that we use when building python, which also included some enhancements/bug fixes (depending on how you look at it). By removing the '~$-/' characters from the completer list it allows the user to perform file name completion (with the provided file name completion code). The file name completion code has been very rigorously tested. We have been using it at our company for the past 10 years with 100 users and have had no problems with it. -- We put this here since it never really seemed to be an advanced feature since readline completion will complete file names on the command-line as well. This seemed like a relatively low-level fix that makes the python tab-expansion facility fully usable instead of just partly usable. If you would like me to resubmit the patch as smaller components I can do that as well. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue5833 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
