Edward's example of using EditLine syntax works for my "raw python" test: $ python >>> import rlcompleter >>> import readline >>> readline.parse_and_bind ("bind ^I rl_complete") >>> readline.[TAB KEY PRESSED] readline.__class__ readline.__class__ readline.__class__ readline.__delattr__ readline.__delattr__ readline.__dict__ ... BUT If I change the IPython config file to use EditLine syntax, I get a segmentation fault when I start ipython. $ diff .ipython/ipythonrc.0 .ipython/ipythonrc 395c395 < readline_parse_and_bind tab: complete --- > readline_parse_and_bind bind ^I complete $ ipython Segmentation fault Exception Type: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV) Exception Codes: KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS at 0x000000006a000c6c Crashed Thread: 0 Thread 0 Crashed: 0 libSystem.B.dylib 0x91f22620 strcmp + 80 1 libedit.2.dylib 0x0044a906 map_bind + 1345 2 libedit.2.dylib 0x0044abec el_parse + 236 3 libedit.2.dylib 0x00457372 rl_parse_and_bind + 85 4 readline.so 0x00440e6a 0x440000 + 3690 5 org.python.python 0x0018d826 PyEval_EvalFrameEx + 17116 6 org.python.python 0x0018da08 PyEval_EvalFrameEx + 17598 7 org.python.python 0x0018da08 PyEval_EvalFrameEx + 17598 8 org.python.python 0x0018f47b PyEval_EvalCodeEx + 1638 9 org.python.python 0x0018daa5 PyEval_EvalFrameEx + 17755 10 org.python.python 0x0018f47b PyEval_EvalCodeEx + 1638 11 org.python.python 0x00139c47 PyFunction_SetClosure + 2646 12 org.python.python 0x0011fd5d PyObject_Call + 50 13 org.python.python 0x00128618 PyMethod_New + 2457 14 org.python.python 0x0011fd5d PyObject_Call + 50 15 org.python.python 0x00188b35 PyEval_CallObjectWithKeywords + 211 16 org.python.python 0x0012484d PyInstance_New + 305 17 org.python.python 0x0011fd5d PyObject_Call + 50 18 org.python.python 0x0018db3a PyEval_EvalFrameEx + 17904 19 org.python.python 0x0018f47b PyEval_EvalCodeEx + 1638 20 org.python.python 0x0018daa5 PyEval_EvalFrameEx + 17755 21 org.python.python 0x0018f47b PyEval_EvalCodeEx + 1638 22 org.python.python 0x0018f568 PyEval_EvalCode + 87 23 org.python.python 0x001a6a0c PyErr_Display + 1896 24 org.python.python 0x001a7036 PyRun_FileExFlags + 135 25 org.python.python 0x001a89a2 PyRun_SimpleFileExFlags + 421 26 org.python.python 0x001b3c23 Py_Main + 3095 27 org.python.pythonapp 0x00001fca 0x1000 + 4042 _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
