Description-en: GNU readline and BSD editline wrappers for Java
Included is the Java package org.gnu.readline which provides the GNU
readline and BSD editline libraries for Java. Note that this is NOT a
pure Java implementation; it merely contains JNI wrappers for the standard
system libraries.
.
BSD editline resembles GNU readline but is under a more relaxed license.
In some cases it can be used as a drop-in replacement for GNU readline
when licensing issues prevent GNU readline from being used.
.
The API documentation and examples can be found in libreadline-java-doc.
