[issue8492] Addition to readline module to get dictionary of keystrokes and commands
anand jeyahar added the comment: Here's what the original maintainer chet romney had to say about this functionality not being a part of readline, and should be implemented by the calling application. From Chet Ramey: -- The answer is that this is very similar to the operate-and-get-next feature bash adds to the readline interface. I am not inclined to add this to readline in its current form because it manipulates state managed by the calling application (rl_startup_hook) and requires that state to be kept between calls to readline(). It's a feature that should be provided by the calling application -- it's implementation is not complicated. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue8492 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue8492] Addition to readline module to get dictionary of keystrokes and commands
Steven D'Aprano added the comment: A question came up on Python-ideas about readline apparently missing a standard function. See: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-ideas/2012-October/016329.html For debugging issues with readline, it would be be very useful to be able to query the current set of bindings. This would also help people avoid accidentally over-writing existing bindings. I suggest emulating the three bash commands: bind -p # List functions and bindings in a form that can be reused as input. bind -v # As above for variable names and values. bind -s # As above for macros and values. -- nosy: +stevenjd versions: +Python 3.4 -Python 3.2 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue8492 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

New submission from Mitchell Model m...@acm.org: Requesting a function to be added to the readline module that produces a dictionary of the current keystroke bindings Also, one to write it to a file in readline init file format. This would be a big help for people interested in customizing the behavior of readline inside Python. -- components: Library (Lib) messages: 103905 nosy: MLModel severity: normal status: open title: Addition to readline module to get dictionary of keystrokes and commands type: feature request versions: Python 2.6, Python 2.7, Python 3.1, Python 3.2 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue8492 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
