Common-Description:
The GNU Readline library provides a set of functions for use by applications
that allow users to edit command lines as they are typed in. Both Emacs and vi
editing modes are available. The Readline library includes additional
functions to maintain a list of previously-entered command lines, to recall and
perhaps reedit those lines, and perform csh-like history expansion on previous
commands.
.
The history facilites are also placed into a separate library, the History
library, as part of the build process. The History library may be used without
Readline in applications which desire its capabilities.
