1 Clean readline Version 0.3
2 ==========================
4 ReadLine is a Clean library that allows interactive console programs to use the
5 GNU readline libraries. At the moment this is only tested on Linux.
8 To setup the library you can simply run
10 make -C Clean\ System\ Files
13 To compile and test the test program you can run
19 When you want to use the library in your program you should compile with the
20 `-l -lreadline` linker flag
22 All functions try to resemble the original
23 [readline](http://cnswww.cns.cwru.edu/php/chet/readline/readline.html) and
24 [history](http://cnswww.cns.cwru.edu/php/chet/readline/history.html) api
25 functions as close as possible
27 *Please note that some functions will crash if `usingHistory` is not called*
32 - Better build mechanism
33 - Information about the history list functions implemented, not thoroughly
36 - History state can now be written as well as read
38 - History file operations added
39 - EOF is now properly handled
42 - History works but no control over it
46 - Check all functions if more maybe's are needed to handle NULL
47 - Implement history expansion functions
48 - Use builtin Maybe if available, otherwise fall back on own Maybe
49 - Complete history api implementation
50 - Control over tabcompletion, right now it completes on filenames.
51 - Check possibilities for Windows/Mac
