Greetings again;  The new rockspec is at:
  http://www.pjb.com.au/comp/lua/readline-1.2-0.rockspec

Doc:     http://www.pjb.com.au/comp/lua/readline.html
Tarball: http://www.pjb.com.au/comp/lua/readline-1.2.tar.gz

The main change :
  set_options{histfile='~/.x_history'}
now expands the tilde as advertised :-)

That fixes what I had thought was a bug in readkey.  Another version
of readkey could also happen sometime: my debian wheezy interrupts
posix.read() even for a SIGWINCH, and returns nil.  I fear manually
restarting interrupted system calls might be non-portable,
and mutiple-handling of SIGWINCH might create race conditions.
And yet I thought that with sigaction (luaposix uses sigaction),
posix.read() would restart automatically if interrupted by a signal?
Never had to wrestle with this stuff before...  Apologies for OT :-)

Regards,  Peter Billam
