readline, rlcompleter

[michele.simionato at gmail.com]

This a case where the documentation is lacking. The standard library
documentation
(http://www.python.org/dev/doc/devel/lib/module-rlcompleter.html) gives
this example
try:
import readline
except ImportError:
print "Module readline not available."
else:
import rlcompleter
readline.parse_and_bind("tab: complete")

but I don't find a list of recognized key bindings. For instance, can I
would
like to bind shift-tab to rlcompleter, is that possible? Can I use
function
keys? I did various attempt, but I did not succed :-(
Is there any readline-guru here with some good pointers?
