Oops I forgot to say that it supports a dmenu-mode (this code inherits from
the old eread program I send to the list few months ago).
Usage is quite simple:
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
char *ret;
dl_init();
dl_prompt = "$ ";
do {
ret = dl_readline(argc, argv);
if (ret) {
printf(" [line] '%s'\n", ret);
dl_hist_add(ret);
}
} while(ret!=NULL);
dl_free();
}
Have fun!
