A minimal, zero-config, BSD licensed, readline replacement.
- Single and multi line editing mode with the usual key bindings implemented.
- History handling.
- Completion.
- Hints (suggestions at the right of the prompt as you type).
- About 1,100 lines of BSD license source code.
- Only uses a subset of VT100 escapes (ANSI.SYS compatible).
- UTF-8 support.
The aim of this project is to get the linenoise library up to date and keep it maintained as the original repo is currently unmaintained.
Linenoise is BSD code, so you can use both in free software and commercial software.
