Come to think of it, libedit could use perl bindings... Hummm... Gaah - another big line-editing library! My editor's even smaller than libedit! text data bss dec hex filename 60113 4352 0 64465 fbd1 /usr/lib/libedit.so 117406 14004 1464 132874 2070a /usr/lib/libreadline.so 48843 636 4492 53971 d2d3 tst I'll add my editing package to my things-to-clean-up list and make it available when I next have some time. I've never cared for perl tho'. Growing up programming on a KL-10, I still think the correct place for line-editing is in the driver. Hell - it's already doing basic erase/kill line editing as it is. Then you don't have to hack every command-line app to get line-editing. -- Parag Patel To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
