#188 Odd characters surrounding tab completion suggestions

Reported by Jason Whaley

When using Terminal.app on Mac OSX (10.6) whenever bpython shows autocomplete suggestions, the list of suggestions is surrounded by a block of ?'s and q's. For instance:

>>> x
?qqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqq?
?xrange(                                                       ?
?qqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqq?

This hasn't always been this way, as I recall using bpython sometime in the past on OSX and recall the autocomplete suggestions block being bordered with either the -, = or | characters.

I'm using bpython version 0.9.7.1 on top of Python 2.6.1

    I don't have a Mac so I can't test it. But maybe we can pin it down:

    • Did you upgrade Python or ncurses or change anything before it started to look weird?
    • Does the problem still persist with an up-to-date version of Python, ncurses and bpython?
