Martin Panter added the comment: Adam: My experiments were assuming that PyOS_Readline() only ever uses the basic implementation or the Readline library, in order to see if there was any consistency with how Python worked in common situations.
There is actually a test that waits for the interpreter prompt on stderr; see test_cmd_line_script.CmdLineTest.interactive_python(). I realized that changing this would have to be considered carefully, because it could easily break other code as well. It certainly should not be done in a bug fix release. Anyway I am proposing a patch in Issue 1927 to fix PyOS_StdioReadline(), so closing this as a duplicate. ---------- components: +Interpreter Core -Extension Modules resolution: -> duplicate status: open -> closed superseder: -> raw_input behavior incorrect if readline not enabled _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12869> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
