I have a problem with Sage and maybe readline on an ubuntu box. If I
type
sage: squ<TAB>
then it partially completes to
sage: squarefree_
Then it lists the options ("squarefree_divisors squarefree_part") and
puts the cursor in the wrong place: the cursor ends up on the "s" in
"squarefree_". If I then type "d" then TAB, it completes "divisors"
and leaves the cursor at the end of that word. This seems to only
happen when there are several possible completions: if I type
"squarefree_d<TAB>", it completes and leaves the cursor in the right
place.
Has anyone seen this before? Is some terminal setting messed up? The
same thing happens whether I run xterm or the default gnome-terminal.
On the other hand, if I remote log in to the machine, then I don't see
this: the cursor ends up where it is supposed to when I TAB complete
things. (For example, I'm sitting at this ubuntu box right now. I
can ssh to another machine, and then from there ssh back to this one,
and I don't see the tab problem. This doesn't seem like the ideal
solution, however.)
