command history broken in Python2.3 ?

[Nicola Mingotti]

Hello ,

I'm tring Python 2.3 ( on source and binary distribution , 
on Linux and Windows ) and i think 
the command history doesn't work .

When i use the Up-Arrow in Python2.3
started in an xterm i get '^[[A' .
In IDLE under Windows using Alt-p produce nothig .
In IDLE under Linux Alt-p works !! .

Do you have the same behavior in you
interpreter ?

Bye .

(p.s. please forgive english mistakes )
