Package: rlfe (8.2-5 and others)

[ Source: readline  ]

Front-end using readline to "cook" input lines for other programs

This tool lets you use history and line-editing in any text oriented tool. This is especially useful with third-party proprietary tools that cannot be distributed linked against readline. It is not perfect but it works pretty well.

See the ledit and rlwrap packages for other programs of that kind.
