In our case, Readline is necessary because the Ruby REPL "IRB" uses Readline directly to hook in method completions and other features. So having Jline or something similar as part of JRuby is the only way. But of course, moving to an FFI-based Readline would be cleaner. - Charlie --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "JVM Languages" group.
