Term::ReadLine::Gnu - Perl extension for the GNU Readline/History Library
use Term::ReadLine; $term = new Term::ReadLine 'ProgramName'; while ( defined ($_ = $term->readline('prompt>')) ) { ... }
For basic functions object oriented interface is provided. These are described in the section ``Standard Methods'' and ""Term::ReadLine::Gnu" Functions".
This package also has the interface with the almost all functions and variables which are documented in the GNU Readline/History Library Manual. They are documented in the section ""Term::ReadLine::Gnu" Functions" and ""Term::ReadLine::Gnu" Variables" briefly. For more detail of the GNU Readline/History Library, see 'GNU Readline Library Manual' and 'GNU History Library Manual'.
The sample programs under "eg/" directory and test programs under "t/" directory in the "Term::ReadLine::Gnu" distribution include many example of this module.
The optional argument "PREPUT" is granted only if the value "preput" is in "Features".
"PROMPT" may include some escape sequences. Use "RL_PROMPT_START_IGNORE" to begin a sequence of non-printing characters, and "RL_PROMPT_END_IGNORE" to end of such a sequence.
See section ``Variables'' for supported variables.
Almost methods have lower level functions in "Term::ReadLine::Gnu::XS" package. To use them full qualified name is required. Using method interface is preferred.
Example: # name name `reverse-line' to a function reverse_line(), # and bind it to "\C-t" $term->add_defun('reverse-line', \&reverse_line, ord "\ct");

void using_history()
void add_history(str string)
int stifle_history(int max|undef)
stifles the history list, remembering only the last "MAX" entries. If "MAX" is undef, remembers all entries. This is a replacement of unstifle_history().
int unstifle_history()
This is equivalent with 'stifle_history(undef)'.

int read_history(str filename = '~/.history', int from = 0, int to = -1)
int read_history_range(str filename = '~/.history', int from = 0, int to = -1)
adds the contents of "FILENAME" to the history list, a line at a time. If "FILENAME" is false, then read from ~/.history. Start reading at line "FROM" and end at "TO". If "FROM" is omitted or zero, start at the beginning. If "TO" is omitted or less than "FROM", then read until the end of the file. Returns true if successful, or false if not. "read_history()" is an aliase of "read_history_range()".
int write_history(str filename = '~/.history')
writes the current history to "FILENAME", overwriting "FILENAME" if necessary. If "FILENAME" is false, then write the history list to ~/.history. Returns true if successful, or false if not.
int append_history(int nelements, str filename = '~/.history')
int history_truncate_file(str filename = '~/.history', int nlines = 0)
(int result, str expansion) history_expand(str line)
Note that this function returns "expansion" in scalar context.

Most of descriptions in this section is cited from GNU Readline Library manual.
A generator function is called repeatedly from "completion_matches()", returning a string each time. The arguments to the generator function are "TEXT" and "STATE". "TEXT" is the partial word to be completed. "STATE" is zero the first time the function is called, allowing the generator to perform any necessary initialization, and a positive non-zero integer for each subsequent call. When the generator function returns "undef" this signals "completion_matches()" that there are no more possibilities left.
If the value is undef, built-in "filename_completion_function" is used.
A sample generator function, "list_completion_function", is defined in Gnu.pm. You can use it as follows;
use Term::ReadLine; ... my $term = new Term::ReadLine 'sample'; my $attribs = $term->Attribs; ... $attribs->{completion_entry_function} = $attribs->{list_completion_function}; ... $attribs->{completion_word} = [qw(reference to a list of words which you want to use for completion)]; $term->readline("custom completion>");
See also "completion_matches".
The function is called with "TEXT", "LINE_BUFFER", "START", and "END". "LINE_BUFFER" is a current input buffer string. "START" and "END" are indices in "LINE_BUFFER" saying what the boundaries of "TEXT" are.
If this function exists and returns null list or "undef", or if this variable is set to "undef", then an internal function "rl_complete()" will call the value of $rl_completion_entry_function to generate matches, otherwise the array of strings returned will be used.
The default value of this variable is "undef". You can use it as follows;
use Term::ReadLine; ... my $term = new Term::ReadLine 'sample'; my $attribs = $term->Attribs; ... sub sample_completion { my ($text, $line, $start, $end) = @_; # If first word then username completion, else filename completion if (substr($line, 0, $start) =~ /^\s*$/) { return $term->completion_matches($text, $attribs->{'username_completion_function'}); } else { return (); } } ... $attribs->{attempted_completion_function} = \&sample_completion;
"ENTRY_FUNC" is a generator function which has two arguments, and returns a string. The first argument is "TEXT". The second is a state argument; it is zero on the first call, and non-zero on subsequent calls. "ENTRY_FUNC" returns a "undef" to the caller when there are no more matches.
If the value of "ENTRY_FUNC" is undef, built-in "filename_completion_function" is used.
"completion_matches" is a Perl wrapper function of an internal function "completion_matches()". See also $rl_completion_entry_function.
This variable is compatible with "Term::ReadLine::Perl" and very easy to use.
use Term::ReadLine; ... my $term = new Term::ReadLine 'sample'; my $attribs = $term->Attribs; ... $attribs->{completion_function} = sub { my ($text, $line, $start) = @_; return qw(a list of candidates to complete); }
int rl_call_function(FunctionPtr|str function, count = 1, key = -1)
$attribs->{redisplay_function} = $attribs->{shadow_redisplay}; $line = $term->readline("password> ");
This command is bound to "\C-o" by default for the compatibility with the Bash and "Term::ReadLine::Perl".
Conditional key binding is also available. The program name which is specified by the first argument of "new" method is used as the application construct.
For example, when your program call "new" method like this;
... $term = new Term::ReadLine 'PerlSh'; ...
your ~/.inputrc can define key bindings only for it as follows;
... $if PerlSh Meta-Rubout: backward-kill-word "\C-x\C-r": re-read-init-file "\e[11~": "Function Key 1" $endif ...

SPP (Synopsys Plus Perl) is a Perl module that wraps around Synopsys' shell programs. SPP is inspired by the original dc_perl written by Steve Golson, but it's an entirely new implementation. Why is it called SPP and not dc_perl? Well, SPP was written to wrap around any of Synopsys' shells.

soundgrab is designed to help you slice up a big long raw audio file (by default 44.1 kHz 2 channel signed sixteen bit little endian) and save your favorite sections to other files. It does this by providing you with a cassette player like command line interface.

PIQT is an interactive query tool using the Perl DBI database interface. It supports ReadLine, provides a built in scripting language with a Lisp like syntax, an online help system, and uses wrappers to interface to the DBD modules.

It provides a friendly way to play with the Ghostscript interpreter, including command history and auto-completion of Postscript font names and reserved words.

Ornament feature works only on prompt strings. It requires very hard hacking of "display.c:rl_redisplay()" in GNU Readline library to ornament input line.
"newTTY()" is not tested yet.
