Hi Steven,
     Yep am interested. been looking to get back into C development for
sometime now. Though, don't hold your breath, as the last time i wrote any
C code was 10 years ago and i have no experience with the  cpython code
base.

Will look into it over the weekend.  So far i read up the issue and
understood the requirement.
  Next steps for me to do:
      1. to figure out the readline library bindings
      2. Find the source code in cpython. My first suspicion is that it
should be  in the Python/ folder.


Any suggestions welcome
