#36735: Macports pythons 2.5, 2.6, 2.7 do file-globbing as if a UNIX shell instead of tabbing --------------------------+---------------------------------------- Reporter: dhpennell3@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.1.2 Keywords: | Port: python25,python26,python27 --------------------------+---------------------------------------- All my Apple Python behaves normally (you type a tab and it tabs. But all my MacPorts pythons instead want to do file completion on my home directory. Since the last time I used interactive mode, I've installed py26-levenshtein and py27-levinshtein and py26-pip and py27-pip and use the pips to install unidecode. That said, python2.5, which hasn't been touched in terms of modules in a couple of years, does the same bizarre thing. To clarify: when in the interactive shell, if I type a tab at the ... I want it to indent, if I type it after, say, a variable name, I want it to tab over and justify the line before I type the = and a space. Instead it simply ignores tabs. If you type 2 tabs quickly, it asks you if you want to see all XX possibliities then presents an ls of your home dir. This shouldn't be confused with readline or libedit autocomplete set up in startup (which I don't have, anyway). This is something not asked for and bizarre. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/36735> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
