Title:
Python interactive interpreter does not indent with tabs, tries to
tab-complete
Status in “python3.4” package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Status in “python3.4” package in Debian:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Using the python3 interactive interpreter, I can not use tabs to
indent like I could on previous versions of Ubuntu (13.10 was what I
was using before, now I'm using 14.04).
When I try to indent on the python interpreter command line, it simply
does nothing the first time I press the tab key. The second time I
press it, it shows a bunch of autocomplete suggestions.
For example
>>> if (True):
... <tab>print("true!")
File "<stdin>", line 2
print("true!")
^
IndentationError: expected an indented block
Could this be related to http://bugs.python.org/issue18988? Is the fix
for that included in the version of python on 14.04?
I also found http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4809820/tab-key-not-
indenting-in-python, in which one of the comments to an answer
suggests trying <Ctrl-V><tab> when you want to insert a tab. That does
work for me:
>>> if (True):
... <Ctrl-V><tab>print("true")
...
true
