Python's IDLE does this as well. It's hugely frustrating in other REPLs (irb, iPython) to type out a 5-line block only to find that you missed a keystroke on line 2. I'm hoping there's a keyboard shortcut I don't know about.
- wewyor 16y agoIt does work in ipython it just is annoying to navigate and you have to rely on the automatic indenting a bit more if you are adding anything (as the ...: is missing). Unless of course you mean history through different sessions as that doesn't work for full functions.
- dpritchett 16y agoWith IDLE a quick Ctrl-P will bring up the entire previous block input, including indents, all at once.
- wewyor 16y agoIndents are included with a simple up arrow with ipython, it also works if you are doing a backwards search (C-r), it just doesn't have the nice formatting you get when you first write the function. Idle is a bit easier to edit the function though.
