In a previous post I mentioned that removing --rawCIN fixed my problem with not seeing the 6-space prompt. I spoke too soon however. It turns out that while it works fine on Linux, on OSX I keep getting duplicated output.
Frankly, I don't quite understand why it echoes my input in the first place. That should be the job of the operating system. Even with that in mind, --noCIN does not change this behaviour. An example when typing 'foo': * 'foo'* 'foo' foo Regards, Elias On 6 September 2014 02:15, Juergen Sauermann <juergen.sauerm...@t-online.de> wrote: > Hi, > > as a preparation for the removal of libreadline I have created a new input > mode for GNU APL. > The first shot (which is still a bit bumpy) is contained in SVN 454. > > The new mode is enabled with *--noRL*.
