distributed under a "C News-like" copyright, see the file LICENSE for details.
The editline library was created by Simmule Turner and Rich Salz back in 1992.
At the time they chose to distribute the code under a "C News-like" copyright,
see the file LICENSE for details.
The small size (<30k), lack of dependencies (no ncurses needed!) and the free
license should make this library interesting to many embedded developers.
Configuration is made by supplying different options to the GNU configure
script. In the examples/ directory you can find some small code snippets
used for testing.
script. In the examples/ directory you can find some small code snippets used
for testing.
Before finding out about the Debian version I was on the lookout for a really
small replacement for the GNU readline package. Not only was libreadline large
and GPL:ed (instead of LGPL:ed), it also depends on libncurses, the resulting
size was a bit too much for my embedded system. I eventually stubmled upon the
BSD libedit library, which was sufficient for a while, even though it too
depends on libncurses. I searched my soul and went back to where I, back in
1996, started out -- Minix. And there it was, a really small readline
replacement!
This version of the editline library is a fork off the Minix3 sources. Other
know versions, often based off of the original comp.sources.unix posting are:
In 2000 Jim Studt packaged libeditline for Debian[1], the exact origin of the
Debian code base is unclear, see the Sid package[2] for details. There were
some notable differences between that version and the upstream Minix sources,
all of which have now been merged here.
* Debian libeditline, http://packages.qa.debian.org/e/editline.html
* Heimdal, http://www.h5l.org
* Festival speech-tools, http://festvox.org/festival/
* Steve Tell's editline patches, http://www.cs.unc.edu/~tell/dist.html
The most intersting patches and bug fixes from each fork have been merged here.
Outstanding issues are listed in the TODO file.
An explanation of the version numbering may be in order. I didn't know about
the Debian version for quite some time, so I kept a different name for the
package and a different versioning scheme. In June 2009, I decided to line up
alongside Debian, with the intent of merging the efforts. Sorry for any
confusion this might cause.
