SF #558432: Prevent Annoying ' ' from readline (Holker Krekel). readline in all python versions is configured to append a 'space' character for a successful completion. But for almost all python expressions 'space' is not wanted (see coding conventions PEP 8). For example if you have a function 'longfunction' and you type 'longf<TAB>' you get 'longfunction ' as a completion. note the unwanted space at the end. The patch fixes this behaviour by setting readline's append_character to '\0' which means don't append anything. This doesn't work with readline < 2.1 (AFAIK nowadays readline2.2 is in good use). An alternative approach would be to make the append_character accessable from python so that modules like the rlcompleter.py can set it to '\0'. [Ed.: I think expecting readline >= 2.2 is fine. If a completer wants another character they can append that to the keyword in the list.]
