title: python's readline module not available for windows?
body: <p>Granted I've been off PYTHON for two + years. I'm trying to get back into the swing, and I remember having command and variable completion available on windows a few years back. We were stuck in 2.6 as we had dependencies.</p>
  
  <p>Today, I'm trying to import readline. I get this message from pip.</p>
