adding a command-line interface
|
|
| Israel Hsu 2004-03-30, 7:34 pm |
| Hi, everyone,
I want to add a command-line interface to my program, an interface
with history and command-line editing. Is there a library that I can
use to easily customize and add such an interface? (besides getchar
and atoi, etc.)
I've heard of ncurses for screen layout.

Try the GNU readline library: <ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/readline>

There's also a BSD licensed clone called libedit.
