New submission from Ronald Oussoren: Modules/readline.c contains some code that improves interop with the readline emulation in libedit. That interop code is currently guarded by '#ifdef __APPLE__' preprocessor tests.
This should be replaced by '#if HAVE_LIBEDIT' to make it possible to use the same interop code on other platforms with libedit (such as BSD systems). A patch should have two parts: 1) Detect in either configure or setup.py if libedit's readline emulation will/should be used. 2) Change the __APPLE__ guards by HAVE_LIBEDIT guards. ---------- messages: 193092 nosy: ronaldoussoren priority: normal severity: normal stage: needs patch status: open title: readline: libedit support on non-apple platforms type: behavior versions: Python 3.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18459> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
