Description

The ariadne project is using percol to achieve real-time incremental interactive shell history search. I'm not sure whether I can use python-prompt-toolkit to complete the same purpose, especially, as a drop-in replacement.

Regards,
HY

Research direction

Start by reviewing the ariadne project’s current use of percol for interactive shell history search, then compare it with python-prompt-toolkit’s documented capabilities. Done would require a defined replacement scope and confirmation of whether a drop-in replacement is feasible.
