> Antoine: do you think it's worth the effort? As mentioned above, the readline 6 compatibility code was checked in. The ClassType expansion is 2.x-only, so probably can't go in since it's a feature request. What remains is the filename expansion. However, the problem is that it seems to rely on removing '~$-/' from the word break characters, which is IMO wrong (at least '-', '/' and '~' are all Python operators which should be considered word break characters).
