README -*-text-*-
|

|
||||
This is a line editing library. It can be linked into almost any program to
|
||||
provide command-line editing and history. It is call-compatible with the FSF
|
||||
readline library, but is a fraction of the size (and offers fewer features).
|
||||
|
||||
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.
|
||||
|
||||
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:
|
||||
|
||||
* 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.
|
||||
|
||||
Enjoy,
