Issue490963

Hi.  Bablok's readline classes have been updated
and the new interface is incompatible with the old.
Below is a patch for org/python/util/ReadlineConsole.java
that uses the new (0.6) interface.

Thanks - Ben.

Thanks.

I'm not certain that it is a good thing to hardcode the use 
of the Editline library. I have attached a patch that 
hopefull allow switching between native libraries using a 
registry setting. I can't test this on win2k so please 
check if the patch works for you.
