If pprroommpptt is null, no prompt is + issued. The line returned is allocated with _m_a_l_l_o_c(3), so + the caller must free it when finished. The line returned + has the final newline removed, so only the text of the + line remains. + + rreeaaddlliinnee offers editing capabilities while the user is + entering the line. By default, the line editing commands + are similar to those of emacs. A vi-style line editing + interface is also available. + +RREETTUURRNN VVAALLUUEE + rreeaaddlliinnee returns the text of the line read. A blank line + returns the empty string. If EEOOFF is encountered while + reading a line, and the line is empty, NNUULLLL is returned. + If an EEOOFF is read with a non-empty line, it is treated as + a newline. + +NNOOTTAATTIIOONN + An emacs-style notation is used to denote keystrokes. + Control keys are denoted by C-_k_e_y, e.g., C-n means Con- + trol-N. Similarly, _m_e_t_a keys are denoted by M-_k_e_y, so M-x + means Meta-X. (On keyboards without a _m_e_t_a key, M-_x means + ESC _x, i.e., press the Escape key then the _x key. This + makes ESC the _m_e_t_a _p_r_e_f_i_x. The combination M-C-_x means + ESC-Control-_x, or press the Escape key then hold the Con- + trol key while pressing the _x key.) + + Readline commands may be given numeric _a_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s, which + normally act as a repeat count. Sometimes, however, it is + the sign of the argument that is significant. Passing a + negative argument to a command that acts in the forward + direction (e.g., kkiillll--lliinnee) causes that command to act in + a backward direction. Commands whose behavior with argu- + ments deviates from this are noted. + + When a command is described as _k_i_l_l_i_n_g text, the text + deleted is saved for possible future retrieval (_y_a_n_k_i_n_g). + + + +GNU 1998 Feb 19 1 + + + + + +READLINE(3) READLINE(3) + + + The killed text is saved in a _k_i_l_l _r_i_n_g. Consecutive + kills cause the text to be accumulated into one unit, + which can be yanked all at once. Commands which do not + kill text separate the chunks of text on the kill ring. + +IINNIITTIIAALLIIZZAATTIIOONN FFIILLEE + Readline is customized by putting commands in an initial- + ization file (the _i_n_p_u_t_r_c file). The name of this file is + taken from the value of the IINNPPUUTTRRCC environment variable. + If that variable is unset, the default is _~_/_._i_n_p_u_t_r_c. + When a program which uses the readline library starts up, + the init file is read, and the key bindings and variables + are set. There are only a few basic constructs allowed in + the readline init file. Blank lines are ignored. Lines + beginning with a ## are comments. Lines beginning with a $$ + indicate conditional constructs. Other lines denote key + bindings and variable settings. Each program using this + library may add its own commands and bindings. + + For example, placing + + M-Control-u: universal-argument + or + C-Meta-u: universal-argument + into the _i_n_p_u_t_r_c would make M-C-u execute the readline + command _u_n_i_v_e_r_s_a_l_-_a_r_g_u_m_e_n_t. + + The following symbolic character names are recognized + while processing key bindings: _R_U_B_O_U_T, _D_E_L, _E_S_C, _L_F_D, _N_E_W_- + _L_I_N_E, _R_E_T, _R_E_T_U_R_N, _S_P_C, _S_P_A_C_E, and _T_A_B. In addition to + command names, readline allows keys to be bound to a + string that is inserted when the key is pressed (a _m_a_c_r_o). + + + KKeeyy BBiinnddiinnggss + The syntax for controlling key bindings in the _i_n_p_u_t_r_c + file is simple. All that is required is the name of the + command or the text of a macro and a key sequence to which + it should be bound. The name may be specified in one of + two ways: as a symbolic key name, possibly with _M_e_t_a_- or + _C_o_n_t_r_o_l_- prefixes, or as a key sequence. When using the + form kkeeyynnaammee:_f_u_n_c_t_i_o_n_-_n_a_m_e or _m_a_c_r_o, _k_e_y_n_a_m_e is the name + of a key spelled out in English. For example: + + Control-u: universal-argument + Meta-Rubout: backward-kill-word + Control-o: ">&output" + + In the above example, _C_-_u is bound to the function uunniivveerr-- + ssaall--aarrgguummeenntt, _M_-_D_E_L is bound to the function bbaacckk-- + wwaarrdd--kkiillll--wwoorrdd, and _C_-_o is bound to run the macro + expressed on the right hand side (that is, to insert the + text _>_&_o_u_t_p_u_t into the line). + + + + +GNU 1998 Feb 19 2 + + + + + +READLINE(3) READLINE(3) + + + In the second form, ""kkeeyysseeqq"":_f_u_n_c_t_i_o_n_-_n_a_m_e or _m_a_c_r_o, kkeeyy-- + sseeqq differs from kkeeyynnaammee above in that strings denoting an + entire key sequence may be specified by placing the + sequence within double quotes. Some GNU Emacs style key + escapes can be used, as in the following example. + + "\C-u": universal-argument + "\C-x\C-r": re-read-init-file + "\e[11~": "Function Key 1" + + In this example, _C_-_u is again bound to the function uunnii-- + vveerrssaall--aarrgguummeenntt. _C_-_x _C_-_r is bound to the function + rree--rreeaadd--iinniitt--ffiillee, and _E_S_C _[ _1 _1 _~ is bound to insert the + text FFuunnccttiioonn KKeeyy 11.
