With this release, thanks to much appreciated feedback and suggestions from the
community, Haskeline's features become more competitive with its C
alternatives.  Improvements include:

 * A multitude of new emacs and vi bindings:
     http://trac.haskell.org/haskeline/wiki/KeyBindings
 * A new preference 'historyDuplicates' to remove repeated history entries
 * Recognize PageUp and PageDown keys
 * Compatibility with ghc-6.12
 * Correct width calculations for Unicode combining characters

Oh, this Unicode width calculation sounds great! This was the only reason I needed readline and stay away from haskline. If this works properly, I no more nead to depend on readline for line input. I think this is a very good news for any mutibyte charset users. I'll try to replace readline in my memscript utility to haskline and come back to report the results. Thanks for your work on this!
