This module gives you input line editing +facility, input history management facility, word completion +facility, etc. It uses the real GNU Readline Library and has the +interface with the almost all variables and functions which are +documented in the GNU Readline/History Library. So you can program +your custom editing function, your custom completion function, and +so on with Perl. TRG may be useful for prototyping before programming +with C. |
