The configuration file is read from the users home directory and is named pyreadlineconfig.ini. The files syntax is not the same as for GNU readline but a python syntax is used instead. The available commands are:

#Bind keys for exit (keys only work on empty lines
#disable_readline(True)		#Disable pyreadline completely.
from __future__ import print_function, unicode_literals, absolute_import
debug_output("off")             #"on" saves log info to./pyreadline_debug_log.txt
                                #"on_nologfile" only enables print warning messages
