+ This repo is for the storage of a public-domain
readline-and-command-history implementation.
-Update - 24th Aug 2012 -
-Added the mg editor files from OpenBSD.
-I obtained the code from here -
-ftp://ftp.cc.uoc.gr/mirrors/OpenBSD/src/usr.bin/mg/
+FILES:
-( It's not so much the editor itself that is the main interest here,
-but the line-management code. )
+pd_readline.c - This is a file to test the
+implementation. Contains the main() function.
-NOTE - in the mg directory, the file "theo.c" is NOT
-"public domain" ( but it HAD to be included because of the
-humour...... ;) )
+keyhandler.c - Reads the keystrokes and calls
+functions to handle them.
-Many thanks to the OpenBSD team and the mg devs
-(hi Theo - arrrrrrgh, please don't hit me........... ;) )
+funcs.c - Functions to handle the keystrokes.

+
+Update - 6th Sep 2012 -
+
+Almost there!
+The code now pretty much works as expected.
+
+It looks like the stack-smash problem has now
+been fixed. I've give the code a pretty good
+hammering and it didn't give me problems.
+
+Pressing Enter still exits the program rather
+than storing the existing command-line and "staying
+in the program". I hope to change this soon.
+
+You can edit a command-line (using backspace).
+You can move around with left and right-arrow
+keys.
+Command-history can be recalled from a file with
+the up-arrow key, and you can scroll up and down
+through the command-history.
+
+This code is released to the public domain.
+"Share and enjoy........ ;) "
