If you are using ipython on Windows then you will
have made sure you have Gary Bishop's readline
library as instructed in the ipython install
directions found at:
http://ipython.scipy.org/
Even if you use the standard commandline tool,
installing readline makes the basic command line a
lot easier to use. (For some reason, I much
prefer it to IDLE or any of the other GUI-wrapped
interpreters.)
I could not find a list of the keyboard commands
that readline supports, so I generated:
http://fsinnovations.net/share/keymap.pdf
NOTES:
You can checkout the script that generates this at:
http://fsinnovations.net/share/readlinekeymap.py
This uses Ken Seehof's Python Cookbook recipe found at:
http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Python/Recipe/81982
I am sure it can be improved, but it was easy. By the
way, it generates LaTeK.
To install readline, get it at:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/uncpythontools.
You will also need the ctypes library by
Thomas Heller, found at:
