Windows 10 bug (related to pyreadline) #91

TimothyClaeys commented 4 years ago

I'm using coloredlogs (with python 2.7) in a project (https://github.com/openwsn-berkeley/openvisualizer) to color logs written to the terminal. On both Mac OSX and Linux everything works great, but on Windows 10 the logging output is sometimes garbled or overwritten by subsequent logs.

I've tracked the issue to the pyreadline package (installed by humanfriendly). It looks like pyreadline is no longer maintained (its README.md states that is has been tested on Windows 2000 and Windows XP and nothing has been merged since 2015). A quick google search shows many issues related to pyreadline when used on Windows 10.

I was wondering if it is possible switch pyreadline with another maintained package that provides similar functionalities?
