Hi there. I recently downloaded the python 2.7 installer from the python website and installed it on my Mac. When I run python2.7 in interactive mode, the tab key doesn't seem to behave as how it did in 2.6. For example >> def helloWorld(name): ... ./ File "<stdin>", line 2 ./ ^ IndentationError: expected an indented block When you hit tab it seems to think I want to browse the contents of the current directory I'm in, rather than placing a tab character so I can quickly use python in interactive mode to prototype stuff. I'd imagine it's something to do with GNU readline, but I'm pretty sure I have this installed
