Remove readline or move it to contrib #116

Open q66 opened 2 years ago

q66 commented 2 years ago

We are using libedit as a replacement in most users but there are some notable cases currently using readline in ways the libedit API does not yet cover:

We should either improve libedit to enable these, or address the issues in a different way.

May not be necessary for the alpha milestone but tagging it anyway for now.

Looks like the next release (and current master) iwd has libedit support now

except it doesn't, it adds a configure option but does zero work to make it function properly (which it won't, because libedit does not have non-stub support for redisplay hooks and so on yet)
