This is really cool. I wanted to write an interactive input module for sqlite and I really struggled with GNU readline. It looks like I should try it again using python-prompt-toolkit. My use case would be something different than writing SQL statements, my module would let you create interactive, autocompleting input forms. I usually struggle inputting student exam scores into large spreadsheets and I want to replace that with sqlite.
And thanks for this one:

- amjith 11y agoYes! Python-prompt-toolkit has made it tremendously easy to write programs like mycli and pgcli. The author has done an excellent job of keeping the APIs simple and intuitive. It also helps that he's a good OSS maintainer (responsive and courteous). :)

- tcfunk 11y agoI think they were talking about the author of Python-prompt-toolkit, though I read it that way too at first.
