  12. Also checkup GNU's readline library (comes with bash, al least). Very
  13. easy to use and it is easy to hook up command line editing to any
  14. program (with some 300K extra code!). Hope it helps. (In fact, I hooked
  15. up some seemingly non-trivial code using GNU readline library and
  16. tcl's interpreter almost painlessly!).
