Is there any otrher choice except ./configure --disable-readline.
Other options:
(1) You can upgrade the readline library on your PPC to something more
recent that supports tab completion.
(2) You can compile the shell using linenoise instead of readline.
(Doing so will require manual changes to the Makefile as it does not
appear to be supported by ./configure at this time - something that we
should fix for the next release.)
I still power up a PPC mac from time to time in order to verify that
SQLite works on big-endian platforms. But it is painfully slow. Why
are you still using a PPC mac?
Thanks for pointing this out and I managed to use linenoise from
https://github.com/antirez/linenoise
I was pleased to find that the use of the linenoise library is already
anticipated in shell.c (HAVE_LINENOISE)
Indeed only Makefile need to be changed manually aftter .configure.
The difference in size of the library source code is impressing:
$ du -hs readline-7.0/
11M readline-7.0/
$ du -hs linenoise/
144K linenoise/
Point about new PC taken. Even download from github seems not to work
on a PPC mac.
