I'd guess the same. Most of the readline module is just a thin wrapper
around the system readline library, so if the system readline library uses
one-based indexing, so does the readline module. Changing this would
probably be quite error-prone, with a high chance of introducing off-by-
one errors somewhere along the line.
Interestingly, the Apple-supplied python (2.6.1) in OS X 10.6 does have
zero-based readline history. See issue 6872. |
