I use rlwrap often with Rhino. It works O.K.
I think using rlwrap is better than bothering you unessential issue.

Sorry, my mistake. I thought I'd seen it in Linux man pages.
You can re-implement it easily using fgetc() or copy existing
implementation e.g.
http://www.koders.com/c/fid66062EDD2D0F4A1EA102F4C24CEBCCE33E830660.aspx?s=fgetln#L9
I don't see how that one would be any better, since getline() is
specific to GNU libc. There is already a replacement fgetln for win32
that only assumes fgetc, so I just renamed it and enabled its use
everywhere to remove dependencies on fgetln. HTH.
This whole thing would be moot if built-in command-line editing wasn't
so useful. Yoshiki recently pointed me to rlwrap which would certainly
simplify the situation, at least for systems that support it. Does
anyone have experience with and/or strong opinions about rlwrap?
Cheers,
Ian

Hi,
I'm trying to get FONC working on a Ubuntu distro (8.04) on a VM.
I've got a long way through the build (many of the posts here have
helped),
but it's failing with the following messages eventually (stage 2):
./idc -g -g -k -I../objects main.st readline.o jolt.a -L/usr/local/lib
-lreadline -o main
jolt.a(debug.o): In function `freedlineLoadHistory':
/home/user/trunk/function/objects/freedline.c:573: undefined
reference to
`fgetln'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
(I must apologise, I'm a relative newcomer to Linux generally, so may
have
missed something obvious).
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Rob Grainger

Hmm, Mac OS has a /usr/lib/readline that doesn't provide the above
function. (It looks like a wrapper around the BSD editline
library.) I removed the call to the above and replaced it with a
home-made almost-equivalent. (I'll remove the 'almost-' later.)
Hope this helps.
it does, thank you.
So now I can report that "make spotless && make" works fine on Leopard
for revision 469. :-)
Best,
Michael
