Folks,

When simply I embed the interpreter:

        #include "Python.h"

        int main()
        {
          Py_Initialize();
          PyRun_InteractiveLoop(stdin,"test");
          Py_Finalize();

          return 0;
        }

I expect it to behave the same way as if I was running it as a standalone program. On Windows this is indeed the case, but on my Linux box (Python 3.3.1 (default, Apr 8 2013, 22:33:31) [GCC 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-51)]) I get a different behavior in handling console input. A standalone interpreter cycles though the input history when I use up and down arrows - say, I type this code:

>>> 1
1
>>> a=4
>>> a
4

If I now press an <up> key in a standalone interpreter, I get 'a' placed at the prompt (my previous command). However, in an embedded code I get

>>> ^[[A

put at the prompt - does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

Many thanks for any hint,

Nick
