What do you mean? Readline is for editing one line.
well, yes and no. sure its built-in history functions precisely do help editing a sequence of lines? as used in bash, ghci, hugs?
I now have something that works (bottom of this file):
http://theo1.informatik.uni-leipzig.de/cgi-bin/cvsweb/autotool/Exp/Loop.hs?rev=1.3
Still I think it would be nice to have
Readline.getContents :: IO String
that just returns the lazy input list (line by line, as getContents would do).
It's just another kind of line buffering, and this should be transparent to the application. (Of course, it couldn't change the prompt symbol then, but I could live with that).
