Re: readline package with libedit

Good! By the way I've the following lines in my ~/.ghci from http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/998 :m +System.Console.Readline Data.List getCompleterWordBreakCharacters >>= setCompleterWordBreakCharacters . Data.List.delete '/' :m -System.Console.Readline Data.List Does this work with libedit, too? Christian Judah Jacobson wrote:

Could you try to install http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/Shellac-0.9.1 and http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/Shellac-readline-...

If that works, I'll be content with libedit as well.

They don't work with the patch I sent before, but after adding back a few more functions supported by libedit, I was able to install both packages and successfully run a quick test of shellac-readline in ghci. (Although eventually, someone more familiar with that package may want to run more thorough tests.)

I'll work on making a new patch which adds back all of the functionality that libedit supports (including what's needed for shellac-readline).
