[IPython-user] readline problem

[Kasper Souren]

Hi!

I have experienced this many times, but never took the time to report it:

I think there's a problem with readline. When using ctrl-R (to search for 
expressions typed in the past) you can 'pick' the found expression by moving 
the cursor. However, pressing a cursor key has a side effect:

	In [63]: t = Transform_FFT(structures[0].fft)[A

The "[A" is caused by the cursor. I guess this has quite a lot to do with the 
ANSI screen codes for the cursor key and IPython's handling of readline 
stuff.

This problem doesn't occur in the plain Python shell with readline 
functionality enabled.

bye,
Kasper
