[New-bugs-announce] [issue16600] rlcompleter

[Robert McGibbon]

New submission from Robert McGibbon:

I'm not really sure how what the format for filing bugs with python is, so I'm sorry in advance if I've done something wrong.

There is a very small py3k bug in the readline completer (rlcompleter.py).

Specifically, if you look at line 105 (http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/03ce83e43e1b/Lib/rlcompleter.py#l105), you can see that the rlcompleter module is trying to remove '__builtins__' from the list of possible completions that it gives. This made sense in python2.x, but sense the name '__bultins__' was changed to 'builtins', perhaps the line should be changed?

The same issue applies on line 131-134 of the same file I think.

Thanks!
