Python interactive mode history and arrow keys

Viewed 11236

I was wondering if anyone can explain why all of a sudden in Python interactive mode all arrow keys are failing?

When I press up button for example to go through command history I get "^[[A". Same with any other arrow keys.

I have no idea why this happened and it was working before (on OS X Snow Leopard). Does anyone know a way to fix this?

Many thanks,

G

The command

brew install readline

worked for me.
