I've used the code from here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5637124/tab-completion-in-pythons-raw-input/5638688#5638688 and it works. But I've used the same code in a class which inherits from cmd.Cmd, and the code doesn't works. Doing tests, I've noticed that if I do "put /", the argument text from "complete_put" method, skips '/' character. I don't know if this is a bug or my code is wrong, but it works with any other character, and I haven't found anything in the docs. Thanks.

Not a python bug. You are ommitting an important detail of the stackoverflow example in your code: # we want to treat '/' as part of a word, so override the delimiters readline.set_completer_delims(' \t\n;') Please turn to the Python mailing list if you need more help.
