Hi all, Thanks for your help. I installed python 2.7 on my Mac OS X 10.5.8 machine:
nik$ python Python 2.7 (r27:82508, Jul 3 2010, 21:12:11) [GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5493)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. and now, when I hit TAB or paste in a code snippet with tabs in them, the interpreter tries to autocomplete a path, or inserts "./" if the line is blank (just as readline would in the shell environment). It does *not* try to autocomplete function (as readline would in python-- importing readline does turn on this functionality). And it does *not* insert a tab, as I would like it to! If i start my old python 2.5 which came with the OS, this is not a problem. I've tried setting a PYTHONIOENCODING, but that doesn't seem to be doing the job. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. ~Nik -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
