Comment:

 {{{

 # if we have readline support, use that, otherwise use normal stdio
 try:
     import readline
     my_readline = readline.get_line_buffer
 except ImportError:
     my_readline = sys.stdin.readline

 }}}

 Should configure warn readline python module is not installed?

 Should bindctl warn if readline python module is not detected?

 Or maybe just manual page and documentation should suggest it.
