comments, docstrings or error messages. I fixed two minor things in
test_winreg.py ("didn't" -> "Didn't" and "Didnt" -> "Didn't").
There is a minor style issue involved: Guido seems to have preferred English
grammar (behaviour, honour) in a couple places. This patch changes that to
American, which is the more prominent style in the source. I prefer English
myself, so if English is preferred, I'd be happy to supply a patch myself ;)

"""Word completion for GNU readline 2.0.
|
|
|
|
This requires the latest extension to the readline module (the
|
|
completes keywords, built-ins and globals in __main__; when completing
|
|
NAME.NAME..., it evaluates (!) the expression up to the last dot and
|
|
completes its attributes.
|
|
|
|
It's very cool to do "import string" type "string.", hit the
|
|
completion key (twice), and see the list of names defined by the
|
|
string module!
|
|
|
|
Tip: to use the tab key as the completion key, call
|
|
|
|
readline.parse_and_bind("tab: complete")
|
|
|
|
Notes:
|
|
|
|
- Exceptions raised by the completer function are *ignored* (and
|
|
generally cause the completion to fail). This is a feature -- since
|
|
readline sets the tty device in raw (or cbreak) mode, printing a
|
|
traceback wouldn't work well without some complicated hoopla to save,
|
|
reset and restore the tty state.
|
|
|
|
- The evaluation of the NAME.NAME... form may cause arbitrary
|
|
application defined code to be executed if an object with a
|
|
__getattr__ hook is found. Since it is the responsibility of the
|
|
application (or the user) to enable this feature, I consider this an
|
|
acceptable risk. More complicated expressions (e.g. function calls or
|
|
indexing operations) are *not* evaluated.
|
|
|
|
- GNU readline is also used by the built-in functions input() and
|
|
raw_input(), and thus these also benefit/suffer from the completer
|
|
features. Clearly an interactive application can benefit by
|
|
specifying its own completer function and using raw_input() for all
|
|
its input.
|
|
|
|
- When the original stdin is not a tty device, GNU readline is never
|
|
used, and this module (and the readline module) are silently inactive.
