I think I'm misunderstanding you. I thought rl_callback_read_char was some place where rl was always returning and thus a good place to hook the update. If not, is there any place, say a main event loop, like that? I don't know anything about rl internals. Regarding ipython: it's already using prompt toolkit and it's moving very fast so I don't think many users will be running legacy versions for a long time. >>> Do you want this to be something a user could invoke or set to overcome >>> delays in application updates? > I mean update delays as in distributing new code versions. I was thinking you might have meant that while you were typing it. :) _______________________________________________ Bug-readline mailing list Bug-readline@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-readline
