Changes to Readline + +a. Fixed a problem that caused segmentation faults when using readline in + callback mode and typing consecutive DEL characters on an empty line. + +b. Fixed several redisplay problems with multibyte characters, all having to + do with the different code paths and variable meanings between single-byte + and multibyte character redisplay. + +c. Fixed a problem with key sequence translation when presented with the + sequence \M-\C-x. + +d. Fixed a problem that prevented the `a' command in vi mode from being + undone and redone properly. + +e. Fixed a problem that prevented empty inserts in vi mode from being undone + properly. + +f. Fixed a problem that caused readline to initialize with an incorrect idea + of whether or not the terminal can autowrap. + +g. Fixed output of key bindings (like bash `bind -p') to honor the setting of + convert-meta and use \e where appropriate. + +h. Changed the default filename completion function to call the filename + dequoting function if the directory completion hook isn't set. This means + that any directory completion hooks need to dequote the directory name, + since application-specific hooks need to know how the word was quoted, + even if no other changes are made. + +i. Fixed a bug with creating the prompt for a non-interactive search string + when there are non-printing characters in the primary prompt. + +j. Fixed a bug that caused prompts with invisible characters to be redrawn + multiple times in a multibyte locale. + +k. Fixed a bug that could cause the key sequence scanning code to return the + wrong function. + +l. Fixed a problem with the callback interface that caused it to fail when + using multi-character keyboard macros. + +m. Fixed a bug that could cause a core dump when an edited history entry was + re-executed under certain conditions. + +n. Fixed a bug that caused readline to reference freed memory when attmpting + to display a portion of the prompt. + +o. Fixed a bug with prompt redisplay in a multi-byte locale to avoid redrawing + the prompt and input line multiple times. + +p. Fixed history expansion to not be confused by here-string redirection. + +q. Readline no longer treats read errors by converting them to newlines, as + it does with EOF. This caused partial lines to be returned from readline(). + +r. Fixed a redisplay bug that occurred in multibyte-capable locales when the + prompt was one character longer than the screen width. + +2. New Features in Readline + +a. Calling applications can now set the keyboard timeout to 0, allowing + poll-like behavior. + +b. The value of SYS_INPUTRC (configurable at compilation time) is now used as + the default last-ditch startup file. + +c. The history file reading functions now allow windows-like \r\n line + terminators. + +------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This document details the changes between this version, readline-5.1, and the previous version, readline-5.0. |
