Problem
=======
The changes in r87356 for py3k and r87358 for python-2.7 described in issue 9907 have broken parsing of the initialization file .editrc under editline emulation of readline on Mac OS X.
Background
==========
Both readline and editline allow settings customized per program.
For example, .inputrc file for readline::
$if Python
set editing-mode vi
$endif
will be applied only to Python processes.
Similarly, .editrc file for editline::
python:bind -v
python:bind ^I rl_complete
will be applied only to Python processes on Mac OS X.
This works fine on python-2.6.
It's broken on 2.7 and 3.2 and later because the change in issue 9907 moved the rl_initialize() call towards the beginning of the setup function.
Solution
========
The rl_readline_name variable must be set to "python" **before** the call to rl_initialize(). Attached are patches for 2.7 and 3.2. |
