+======
+This is a line-editing library.  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, see
+the file LICENSE for details.
+
+Configuration is made by supplying different options to the GNU
+configure script.  In the examples directory, type "make testit" to
+get a small slow shell for testing.
+
+Changes
+-------
+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-independant; 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.
+
+Bugs
+----
+There is one known bug. History-searching redraws the line wrong if
+the text retrieved is shorter then the prompt.
