Adding extensions to the standard interactive of python
Verfasst: Samstag 8. Oktober 2005, 00:55
Hello,
I want to add the following extensions to the standard interactive mode. The reason behind is that I can use the python shell as a user interface.
- create a history of commands so I can reuse typed commands with arrow up and down keys. It should be save to a file when the shell is closed so I can reload it when the next interactive sesion is started
- create a linux like autocomplete function usiing the TAB key. When I type "os." and hit TAB I want a list off all the names in the name space to be printed. Also if I start typeing something like "os.__nam" I want the "e__" to be automatic aded.
- hide different objects from the user
I know this has already been done (u just need to import a specific module) but I don't know where to look.
Thank you very much in advance
PS: I am writing in Elglish because I don't know German very well.
