It is intended to be compatible - with the _r_e_a_d_l_i_n_e library provided by the Free Software - Foundation, but much smaller. The bulk of this manual - page describes the user interface. - - The _r_e_a_d_l_i_n_e routine returns a line of text with the - trailing newline removed. The data is returned in a - buffer allocated with _m_a_l_l_o_c(3), so the space should be - released with _f_r_e_e(3) when the calling program is done - with it. Before accepting input from the user, the speci- - fied _p_r_o_m_p_t is displayed on the terminal. - - The _a_d_d___h_i_s_t_o_r_y routine makes a copy of the specified _l_i_n_e - and adds it to the internal history list. - - UUsseerr IInntteerrffaaccee - A program that uses this library provides a simple emacs- - like editing interface to its users. A line may be edited - before it is sent to the calling program by typing either - control characters or escape sequences. A control charac- - ter, shown as a caret followed by a letter, is typed by - holding down the ``control'' key while the letter is - typed. For example, ``^A'' is a control-A. An escape - sequence is entered by typing the ``escape'' key followed - by one or more characters. The escape key is abbreviated - as ``ESC.'' Note that unlike control keys, case matters - in escape sequences; ``ESC F'' is not the same as - ``ESC f''. - - An editing command may be typed anywhere on the line, not - just at the beginning. In addition, a return may also be - typed anywhere on the line, not just at the end. - - Most editing commands may be given a repeat count, _n, - where _n is a number. To enter a repeat count, type the - escape key, the number, and then the command to execute. - For example, ``ESC 4 ^f'' moves forward four characters. - If a command may be given a repeat count then the text - ``[n]'' is given at the end of its description. - - The following control characters are accepted: - ^A Move to the beginning of the line - ^B Move left (backwards) [n] - ^D Delete character [n] - ^E Move to end of line - ^F Move right (forwards) [n] - ^G Ring the bell - ^H Delete character before cursor (backspace key) [n] - ^I Complete filename (tab key); see below - ^J Done with line (return key) - ^K Kill to end of line (or column [n]) - ^L Redisplay line - ^M Done with line (alternate return key) - ^N Get next line from history [n] - ^P Get previous line from history [n] - ^R Search backward (forward if [n]) through history for text; - must start line if text begins with an uparrow - ^T Transpose characters - ^V Insert next character, even if it is an edit command - ^W Wipe to the mark - ^X^X Exchange current location and mark - ^Y Yank back last killed text - ^[ Start an escape sequence (escape key) - ^]c Move forward to next character ``c'' - ^? Delete character before cursor (delete key) [n] - - The following escape sequences are provided. - ESC ^H Delete previous word (backspace key) [n] - ESC DEL Delete previous word (delete key) [n] - ESC SP Set the mark (space key); see ^X^X and ^Y above - ESC . Get the last (or [n]'th) word from previous line - ESC ? Show possible completions; see below - ESC < Move to start of history - ESC > Move to end of history - ESC b Move backward a word [n] - ESC d Delete word under cursor [n] - ESC f Move forward a word [n] - ESC l Make word lowercase [n] - ESC u Make word uppercase [n] - ESC y Yank back last killed text - ESC v Show library version - ESC w Make area up to mark yankable - ESC nn Set repeat count to the number nn - ESC C Read from environment variable ``_C_'', where C is - an uppercase letter - - The _e_d_i_t_l_i_n_e library has a small macro facility. If you - type the escape key followed by an uppercase letter, _C, - then the contents of the environment variable ___C__ are read - in as if you had typed them at the keyboard. For example, - if the variable ___L__ contains the following: - ^A^Kecho '^V^[[H^V^[[2J'^M - Then typing ``ESC L'' will move to the beginning of the - line, kill the entire line, enter the echo command needed - to clear the terminal (if your terminal is like a VT-100), - and send the line back to the shell. - - The _e_d_i_t_l_i_n_e library also does filename completion. Sup- - pose the root directory has the following files in it: - bin vmunix - core vmunix.old - If you type ``rm /v'' and then the tab key. _E_d_i_t_l_i_n_e will - then finish off as much of the name as possible by adding - ``munix''. Because the name is not unique, it will then - beep. If you type the escape key and a question mark, it - will display the two choices. If you then type a period - and a tab, the library will finish off the filename for - you: - rm /v[TAB]_m_u_n_i_x.TAB_o_l_d - The tab key is shown by ``[TAB]'' and the automatically- - entered text is shown in italics. - -BBUUGGSS AANNDD LLIIMMIITTAATTIIOONNSS - Cannot handle lines more than 80 columns. - -AAUUTTHHOORRSS - Simmule R.
