Comment (by nad@…):

 Have you checked whether you define a `PYTHONSTARTUP` environment variable
 that has editline specific commands in it?  Try `python -E` to ignore env
 variables and see if that works.  Also check what terminal def is in use:
 `echo $TERM`.

 For what it's worth, it is possible to write a python startup file
 (pointed to by `PYTHONSTARTUP`) that will work with Python 2.7.x or 3.x
 and with Pythons using either `libedit` or GNU `readline`.  For example:


 {{{
 from pprint import pprint as pp
 try:
     import readline
     import rlcompleter
     if 'libedit' in readline.__doc__:
         readline.parse_and_bind("bind ^I rl_complete")
     else:
         readline.parse_and_bind("tab: complete")
 except ImportError:
     pass
 }}}
