""" rlcompleter_ng ============== This module represents an alternative to rlcompleter and rlcompleter2, for those who don't like their default behaviour. There are two main differences between stdlib's rlcompleter and rlcompleter_ng: - when doing something like a.b.c.<TAB>, rlcompleter prepends a.b.c to all the completions it finds; rlcompleter_ng displays only the attributes, making the screen less cluttered; - you can use the <TAB> key both to indent (when the current line is blank) or to complete (when it's not blank); - more important, rlcompleter_ng prints the various attributes found in different colors depending on their type. Unfortunately, the default version of libreadline don't support colored completions, so you need to patch it to fully exploid rlcompleter_ng capabilities. You can find the patch here: http://codespeak.net/svn/user/antocuni/hack/readline-escape.patch Alternatively, you can download the Ubuntu Hardy i386 package from here (thanks to Alexander Schremmer): http://antosreadlineforhardy.alexanderweb.de/libreadline5_5.2-3build1pypy_i386.deb Installation ------------ Simply put the file rlcompleter_ng.py in a directory which is in your PYTHONPATH. Configuration ------------- Since it requires a patched version of libreadline, coloured completions are disabled by default. To customize the configuration of rlcompleter_ng, you need to put a file named .rlcompleter_ngrc.py in your home directory. The file must contain a class named ``Config`` inheriting from ``DefaultConfig`` and overridding the desired values. You can find a sample configuration file, which enables colors, here: http://codespeak.net/svn/user/antocuni/hack/rlcompleter_ngrc.py Usage ----- From the interactive prompt, import rlcompleter_ng and call setup(): >>> import rlcompleter_ng >>> rlcompleter_ng.setup() Alternatively, you can put these lines in some file that it's referenced by the PYTHONSTARTUP environment variable, so that completions is always enabled.
