Python REPL Shortcuts & Features
"Python 3.13 introduced a completely redesigned REPL with a much more modern feel. It's easy to overlook many of the features in the new Python REPL. Let's explore the various hidden features the new Python REPL supports, with a focus on tips that are useful for everyday usage. Python REPL Keyboard Shortcuts Let's start with the keyboard shortcuts the new Python REPL supports. This table is organized with the most useful shortcuts at the top."
"On Linux and Mac, Ctrl+D can be used to exit the REPL, but on Windows you'll need to press Ctrl+Z and then press Enter afterward (to submit). Using Ctrl+D on Linux/Mac or Ctrl+Z and Enter on Windows only works when the shortcut is pressed at a blank prompt. Note that the above shortcuts assume you are working in the new Python REPL (3.13+)."
Python 3.13 provides a completely redesigned REPL with modern behavior and many features aimed at improving interactive development. The REPL includes numerous keyboard shortcuts that streamline navigation, editing, and history access for everyday usage. Shortcut behaviors differ across platforms: Ctrl+D exits on Linux and macOS, while Windows requires Ctrl+Z then Enter, and some shortcuts do not work in the traditional Command Prompt or Powershell. Several features available in 3.13 were not present in 3.12, such as Alt+Enter and F2/F3 modes, and history navigation behaved differently. Deletion commands use a kill ring that allows yanking deleted text back.
