When typing commands in cqlsh, almost all keys are not escaped. For example, arrow keys produce:

cqlsh> ^[[C^[[C^[[D^[[D^[[C^[[C^[[D^[[D

Escape produces:

cqlsh> ^[^[^[^[^[

etc.

I did some digging and some people are saying that it's because the python 'readline' package is not installed (cqlsh is really a python shell), but after pip installing readline, the escape characters are still printed.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Turned out the problem was with pyenv. The solution is to brew update && brew upgrade, then uninstall/install all python versions installed with pyenv.
