This Berkeley-style licensed command line editor library provides generic line editing, history, and tokenization functions, similar to those found in GNU Readline. + +The slackbuild has a build time variable called LIBEDIT_WIDEC, which if set to +`yes', turns on the wide character support of the built libedit library. +Although the support is there, initial testing shows that it acts weird, and +displays Unicode byte sequences instead of the real typed-in characters. You +can experiment with it, but don't count on it until it is cleared up. +The default build option was and is disabled widechar support. |
