Jessica, My guess is that this has to do with a difference between readline-4.x and realine-5.0. Do you need to use readline-5.0? In HsReadline.hsc, you'll see that it includes . On FreeBSD, in /usr/include/readline/readline.h, I find this: enum undo_code { UNDO_DELETE, UNDO_INSERT, UNDO_BEGIN, UNDO_END }; ... #define NO_MATCH 0 #define SINGLE_MATCH 1 #define MULT_MATCH 2 Do you have those in your system's readline.h? You could probably port the readline library to use readline-5.0, but it might be more work than you're willing to do. Hope this helps, Tim -- If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate.
