I was able to get the exact behaviour you've got by disabling the "readline" package from "site-packages".

Is the interactive interpreter implemented in Python or on the C side? _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
