Actually I am on Mac OS X 10.3. I have no idea what I need to do to enable READLINE. I just downloaded the source and did the ./configure, make, make install dance and got no READLINE. It must be somewhere on my system because the behavior I want is very much a part of tcsh.
Assuming you have readline-devel installed on your system (watch out for a file "readline.h" somewhere under (for example) /usr/include or /usr/local/include) you might try to edit the Makefile generated from ./configure changing some lines:
# Compiler options needed for programs that use the readline() library. # READLINE_FLAGS = -DHAVE_READLINE=1 -I/usr/include/readline
# The library that programs using readline() must link against. # LIBREADLINE = -lreadline
If you don't have readline devel on your system you might have to install that beforehand, of course.
/eno
Note: There might be even an option to ./configure enabling or disabling readline support on that stage. However, I don't know it, but think for a one-time compilation above approach should work ok.
