New submission from Justin Lebar <justin.lebar(a)gmail.com>:
The readline documentation currently says:
> readline.insert_text(string)
> Insert text into the command line.
But as far as I can tell, readline.insert_text() does something only when called from startup_hook or pre_input_hook.
Here's an example of someone using the module in a way that works:
