linefeed2

linefeed2 is a configurable, concurrent, extensible, interactive input reader for Unix terminals and Windows console.

API Documentation

linefeed2 follows the paradigm of GNU Readline, binding key sequences to commands that modify input state. linefeed2 supports many GNU Readline commands. However, linefeed2 does not implement all commands supported by GNU Readline. If there's a command you want to be implemented, file an issue!

linefeed2 also interprets GNU Readline inputrc configuration files. First, it will check for a filename in the environment variable INPUTRC. Then, on Unix, it will check $HOME/.inputrc or /etc/inputrc; while, on Windows, it will check %APPDATA%\linefeed\inputrc. Only the first of these that is present is parsed and evaluated.
