Georges plead for ocaml making an effort to meet established programming culture. I aggree. Concerning the question of a line editing facility for the toplevel: libreadline4 is GPL licenced (not LGPL !) and the ocaml toplevel falls under QPL (I think). If I understand correctly this means that the two cannot be linked :-( Searching the reverse dependencies of libreadline4 yields quite a long list. I just checked those packages that looked to me like implementing a line editor. There is "cle" which uses libreadline4 and seems to have the same functionality than ledit/ile. I made some quick tests with "cle ocaml" and it seems fine to me. On the other hand it has a open bug since 180 days. Should we suggest "cle" as line editor for the ocaml toplevel? We should anyway suggest "<whatever-line-editor> | emacs" since both caml-mode and tuareg-mode for emacs provide convenient interfaces. -Ralf. -- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
