SF patch #443759: Add Interface to readline's add_history
This was submitted by Moshe, but apparently he's too busy to check it in himself. He wrote: Here is a function in GNU readline called add_history, which is used to manage the history list. Though Python uses this function internally, it does not expose it to the Python programmer. This patch adds direct interface to this function with documentation. This could be used by friendly modules to "seed" the history with commands.
