prompt_toolkit is a Library for building interactive command lines in Python.
It could be a replacement for readline. It’s Pure Python, and has some advanced features:
Syntax highlighting of the input while typing. (Usually with a Pygments lexer.)
Multiline input
Advanced code completion
Both Emacs and Vi keybindings (Similar to readline), including reverse and forward incremental search
The Python repl
Run ./bin/prompt-toolkit-python-repl to get an interactive Python prompt with syntaxt highlighting, code completion, etc…
Example
from prompt_toolkit import CommandLine
from prompt_toolkit.line import Exit
def main():
# Create CommandLine instance

try:
while True:
code_obj = cli.read_input()
print('You said: ' + code_obj.text)
except Exit: # Quit on Ctrl-D keypress
