pyreadline is available for 2.7-3.5 on PyPI. Anyway, I tried it to no
avail. When dropping a file path into the console it ignores the
alt-numpad sequences that get queued for non-ASCII characters, just
like mvcrt.getwch. If you decide to roll your own getwch via ctypes or
PyWin32, I suggest starting a new topic on the ctypes list or Windows
list.
