Interactive Input Editing and History Substitution<a class="headerlink" href="#interactive-input-editing-and-history-substitution" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h1> <p>Some versions of the Python interpreter support editing of the current input line and history substitution, similar to facilities found in the Korn shell and the GNU Bash shell. This is implemented using the <a class="reference external" href="http://tiswww.case.edu/php/chet/readline/rltop.html">GNU Readline</a> library, which supports Emacs-style and vi-style editing. This library has its own documentation which I won’t duplicate here; however, the basics are easily explained. The interactive editing and history described here are optionally available in the Unix and Cygwin versions of the interpreter.</p> <p>This chapter does <em>not</em> document the editing facilities of Mark Hammond’s PythonWin package or the Tk-based environment, IDLE, distributed with Python. The command line history recall which operates within DOS boxes on NT and some other DOS and Windows flavors is yet another beast.</p> <div class="section" id="line-editing"> <span id="tut-lineediting"></span><h2>13.1. Line Editing<a class="headerlink" href="#line-editing" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2> <p>If supported, input line editing is active whenever the interpreter prints a primary or secondary prompt. The current line can be edited using the conventional Emacs control characters. The most important of these are: <tt class="kbd docutils literal"><span class="pre">C-A</span></tt> (Control-A) moves the cursor to the beginning of the line, <tt class="kbd docutils literal"><span class="pre">C-E</span></tt> to the end, <tt class="kbd docutils literal"><span class="pre">C-B</span></tt> moves it one position to the left, <tt class="kbd docutils literal"><span class="pre">C-F</span></tt> to the right. Backspace erases the character to the left of the cursor, <tt class="kbd docutils literal"><span class="pre">C-D</span></tt> the character to its right. <tt class="kbd docutils literal"><span class="pre">C-K</span></tt> kills (erases) the rest of the line to the right of the cursor, <tt class="kbd docutils literal"><span class="pre">C-Y</span></tt> yanks back the last killed string. <tt class="kbd docutils literal"><span class="pre">C-underscore</span></tt> undoes the last change you made; it can be repeated for cumulative effect.</p> </div> <div class="section" id="history-substitution"> <span id="tut-history"></span><h2>13.2. History Substitution<a class="headerlink" href="#history-substitution" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2> <p>History substitution works as follows. All non-empty input lines issued are saved in a history buffer, and when a new prompt is given you are positioned on a new line at the bottom of this buffer. <tt class="kbd docutils literal"><span class="pre">C-P</span></tt> moves one line up (back) in the history buffer, <tt class="kbd docutils literal"><span class="pre">C-N</span></tt> moves one down. Any line in the history buffer can be edited; an asterisk appears in front of the prompt to mark a line as modified. Pressing the <tt class="kbd docutils literal"><span class="pre">Return</span></tt> key passes the current line to the interpreter. <tt class="kbd docutils literal"><span class="pre">C-R</span></tt> starts an incremental reverse search; <tt class="kbd docutils literal"><span class="pre">C-S</span></tt> starts a forward search.</p> </div> <div class="section" id="key-bindings"> <span id="tut-keybindings"></span><h2>13.3. Key Bindings<a class="headerlink" href="#key-bindings" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2> <p>The key bindings and some other parameters of the Readline library can be customized by placing commands in an initialization file called <tt class="file docutils literal"><span class="pre">~/.inputrc</span></tt>. Key bindings have the form</p> <div class="highlight-python"><pre>key-name: function-name</pre> </div> <p>or</p> <div class="highlight-python"><pre>"string": function-name</pre> </div> <p>and options can be set with</p> <div class="highlight-python"><pre>set option-name value</pre> </div> <p>For example:</p> <div class="highlight-python"><pre># I prefer vi-style editing: set editing-mode vi # Edit using a single line: set horizontal-scroll-mode On # Rebind some keys: Meta-h: backward-kill-word "\C-u": universal-argument "\C-x\C-r": re-read-init-file</pre> </div> <p>Note that the default binding for <tt class="kbd docutils literal"><span class="pre">Tab</span></tt> in Python is to insert a <tt class="kbd docutils literal"><span class="pre">Tab</span></tt> character instead of Readline’s default filename completion function. If you insist, you can override this by putting</p> <div class="highlight-python"><pre>Tab: complete</pre> </div> <p>in your <tt class="file docutils literal"><span class="pre">~/.inputrc</span></tt>. (Of course, this makes it harder to type indented continuation lines if you’re accustomed to using <tt class="kbd docutils literal"><span class="pre">Tab</span></tt> for that purpose.)</p> <p id="index-0">Automatic completion of variable and module names is optionally available. To enable it in the interpreter’s interactive mode, add the following to your startup file: <a class="footnote-reference" href="#id2" id="id1">[1]</a></p> <div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="kn">import</span> <span class="nn">rlcompleter</span><span class="o">,</span> <span class="nn">readline</span> <span class="n">readline</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">parse_and_bind</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s">'tab: complete'</span><span class="p">)</span> </pre></div> </div> <p>This binds the <tt class="kbd docutils literal"><span class="pre">Tab</span></tt> key to the completion function, so hitting the <tt class="kbd docutils literal"><span class="pre">Tab</span></tt> key twice suggests completions; it looks at Python statement names, the current local variables, and the available module names. For dotted expressions such as <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">string.a</span></tt>, it will evaluate the expression up to the final <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">'.'</span></tt> and then suggest completions from the attributes of the resulting object. Note that this may execute application-defined code if an object with a <a class="reference internal" href="../reference/datamodel.html#object.__getattr__" title="object.__getattr__"><tt class="xref py py-meth docutils literal"><span class="pre">__getattr__()</span></tt></a> method is part of the expression.</p> <p>A more capable startup file might look like this example. Note that this deletes the names it creates once they are no longer needed; this is done since the startup file is executed in the same namespace as the interactive commands, and removing the names avoids creating side effects in the interactive environment. You may find it convenient to keep some of the imported modules, such as <a class="reference internal" href="../library/os.html#module-os" title="os: Miscellaneous operating system interfaces."><tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">os</span></tt></a>, which turn out to be needed in most sessions with the interpreter.</p> <div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="c"># Add auto-completion and a stored history file of commands to your Python</span> <span class="c"># interactive interpreter.

Alternatives to the Interactive Interpreter<a class="headerlink" href="#alternatives-to-the-interactive-interpreter" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2> <p>This facility is an enormous step forward compared to earlier versions of the interpreter; however, some wishes are left: It would be nice if the proper indentation were suggested on continuation lines (the parser knows if an indent token is required next). The completion mechanism might use the interpreter’s symbol table. A command to check (or even suggest) matching parentheses, quotes, etc., would also be useful.</p> <p>One alternative enhanced interactive interpreter that has been around for quite some time is <a class="reference external" href="http://ipython.scipy.org/">IPython</a>, which features tab completion, object exploration and advanced history management.
