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