Category: IDLE Group: Feature Request >Status: Closed >Resolution: Works For Me Priority: 5 Submitted By: Björn Lindqvist (sonderblade) Assigned to: Kurt B. Kaiser (kbk) Summary: A command history for the idle interactive shell Initial Comment: 1. Start IDLE. 2. In the IDLE shell that pops up, write a line of Python code and press enter. 3. Pretend you made a spelling mistake in step two. So you press up and try to fix it but you can't because the cursor is moved and the IDLE shell doesn't work at all like the normal CPython shell. In fact, there is no easy way at all to get back to the last line of input for correcting spelling mistakes. I think there should be one. Maybe ALT+Up could do what Up does in the CPython shell? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Kurt B. Kaiser (kbk) Date: 2005-10-06 11:19 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=149084 IDLE is a full screen editor, unlike the CPython interactive interpreter. So arrow up/down are reserved for cursor motion. However, IDLE has a special facility to recall command history. See Help / IDLE Help - Tip Section - Python Shell Window - Command History. There are several ways to recall the command history. If you like you can rebind <history-previous> to Alt-Up Arrow etc. using Options / Configure IDLE / Keys. Default is Alt-p. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1302267&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
