I need an input function with GNU readline support. So far I have:
import readline
readline.parse_and_bind("tab: complete")
file = raw_input('File to send: ')
Cursor keys are working, but TAB-completion works only in the current
directory. Example:
File to send: [TAB][TAB]
argv.py error.py md5b64.py x.py
Python_Cookbook.pdf bookmarks fexit.py murksigkeiten
_.py compile.py https.py wcp
File to send: /tmp/[TAB][TAB]
argv.py error.py md5b64.py x.py
Python_Cookbook.pdf bookmarks fexit.py murksigkeiten
_.py compile.py https.py wcp
Is there a way to make TAB-completion work for other directories, too?
