Thanks everyone for the feedback.
I'm happy to implement the function my purposes initially - I'll share it if I
can work out how to integrate it into the configuration (I'm still on a steep
learning curve with the unix toolset fo building projects, which has always
seemed unnecessarily arcane to me).
Regards,
Rob

Sorry, my mistake. I thought I'd seen it in Linux man pages.

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
