Term::readline::perl

Revamp Term::ReadLine::Perl

• Term-ReadLine-Perl#Overview

Overview

Term::ReadLine::Perl is a pure Perl implementation of GNU Readline.

It is a rather important module, but it is in need of rewriting and modernization. I have a patch for it to add the ReadLine History, but other have contacted me because it should also allow things like multibyte support.

And it also looks abandoned. Or at any rate seriously neglected.

Tasks

Let your imagination run wild. It's not hard to come up with an improvement here. In fact many many people have already done so.

• Reduce bugs. See [https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Dist/Display.html?Name=Term-ReadLine-Perl]
• Add features
• Improve documentation
• Add tests
• Completely rewrite
