it seems to me, that any and all readline interfaces should/could standardize to the indexing scheme as used by the language; maybe i'm wrong, but since python is zero based, so could the readline interfaces. it's definitely more logical for a python programmer to expect zero-based, and the code will match with the python code. i would propose that everything be zero-based; this is duplicate/similar of/to http://bugs.python.org/issue6786
