It can be linked into almost any +program to provide command-line editing and recall. + +It is call-compatible with the FSF readline library, but it is a +fraction of the size (and offers fewer features). It does not use +standard I/O. It is distributed under a "C News-like" copyright. + +Configuration is done in the Makefile. Type "make testit" to get +a small slow shell for testing. + +An earlier version was distributed with Byron's rc. Principal +changes over that version include: + Faster. + Is eight-bit clean (thanks to brendan@cs.widener.edu) + Written in K&R C, but ANSI compliant (gcc all warnings) + Propagates EOF properly; rc trip test now passes + Doesn't need or use or provide memmove. + More robust + Calling sequence changed to be compatible with readline. + Test program, new manpage, better configuration + More system-independent; includes Unix and OS-9 support. + +This contains some changes since the posting to comp.sources.misc: + Bugfix for completion on absolute pathnames. + Better handling of M-n versus showing raw 8bit chars. + Better signal handling. + Now supports termios/termio/sgttyb ioctl's. + Add M-m command to toggle how 8bit data is displayed. + +There is one known bug: + History-searching redraws the line wrong if the text + retrieved is shorter then the prompt. + +Enjoy, + Rich $alz + + + Copyright 1992,1993 Simmule Turner and Rich Salz.
