Robert Stupp resolved CASSANDRA-7577.
-------------------------------------

    Resolution: Not a Problem

According to http://pypi.python.org/pypi/readline:

"Mac OS X, do not ship with GNU readline installed. The readline extension module in the standard library of Mac "system" Python uses NetBSD's editline (libedit) library instead, which is a readline replacement with a less restrictive software license."

So, you can install it with the command:

{noformat}
sudo easy_install readline
{noformat}

> _recursive-history-search_ via ctrl-R does not work in cqlsh. The history itself works via cursor up/down.
> It works on Linux (and I guess on Windows with cygwin) but not on my Mac.
