##  <Heading>Editing using the <C>readline</C> library</Heading>
##  
##  The  descriptions  in  this  section   are  valid  only  if  your  &GAP;
##  installation uses the <C>readline</C>  library for command line editing.
##  You  can check  by <C>IsBound(GAPInfo.UseReadline);</C>  if this  is the
##  case. <P/>
##  
##  You        can        use        all       the        features        of
##  <C>readline</C>,         as         for        example         explained
##  in   <URL>http://tiswww.case.edu/php/chet/readline/rluserman.html</URL>.
##  Therefore  the  command  line  editing   in  &GAP;  is  similar  to  the
##  <C>bash</C> shell  and many other  programs. On a Unix/Linux  system you
##  may also have a manpage, try <C>man readline</C>. <P/>
##  
##  Compared  to the  command line  editing which  was used  in &GAP;  up to
##  version&nbsp;4.4 (or compared to  not using the <C>readline</C> library)
##  using <C>readline</C> has several advantages:
##  <List>
##  <Item>Most keys still do the  same as explained in 
##  <Ref Sect="Line Editing"/> (in the default configuration).
##  </Item>
##  <Item>There are many additional commands, e.g. undoing (<B>Ctrl-_</B>, 
##  keyboard macros (<B>Ctrl-x(</B>, <B>Ctrl-x)</B> and <B>Ctrl-xe</B>), 
##  file name completion (hit <B>Esc</B> two or four times),
##  showing matching parentheses, 
##  <C>vi</C>-style key bindings, deleting and yanking text, ...</Item>
##  <Item>Lines which are longer than a physical terminal row can be edited 
##  more conveniently.</Item>
##  <Item>Arbitrary unicode characters can be typed into string literals.
##  </Item>
##  <Item>The   key   bindings   can   be  configured,   either   via   your
##  <File>~/.inputrc</File>   file   or   by  &GAP;   commands,   see   <Ref
##  Subsect="ssec:readlineCustom"/>.</Item>
##  <Item>The command line history can be saved to and read from a file, see
##  <Ref Subsect="ssec:cmdlinehistory"/>.</Item>
##  <!-- <Item>demo mode <Ref Subsect="ssec:demoreadline"/>???</Item> -->
##  <Item>Adventurous users can even implement completely new 
##  command line editing functions on &GAP; level, see <Ref
##  Subsect="ssec:readlineUserFuncs"/>.</Item>

##  <Heading>Readline customization</Heading>
##  
##  You can use your readline  init file (by default <File>~/.inputrc</File>
##  on Unix/Linux) to  customize key bindings. If you want  settings be used
##  only within  &GAP; you  can write them  between lines  containing <C>$if
##  GAP</C> and <C>$endif</C>. For a detailed documentation of the available
##  settings and functions see <URL
##  Text="here">http://tiswww.case.edu/php/chet/readline/rluserman.html</URL>.

##  <Listing Type="From readline init file">
##  $if GAP
##    set blink-matching-paren on
##    "\C-n": dump-functions
##    "\ep": kill-region
##  $endif
##  </Listing>
##  
##  Alternatively,       from      within       &GAP;      the       command
##  <C>ReadlineInitLine(<A>line</A>);</C> can be  used, where <A>line</A> is
##  a string containing a line as in the init file.
##  <P/>
##  
##  Note that after pressing <B>Ctrl-v</B> the next special character is 
##  input verbatim. This is very useful to bind keys or key sequences.
##  For example, binding the function key <B>F3</B> to the command
##  <C>kill-whole-line</C> by using the sequence <B>Ctrl-v</B> <B>F3</B>
##  looks on many terminals like this:
##  <C>ReadlineInitLine("\"^[OR\":kill-whole-line");</C>.
##  (You can get the line back later with <B>Ctrl-y</B>.)
##  <P/>
##  
##  The <B>Ctrl-g</B> key can be used to type any unicode character by its code
##  point. The number of the character can either be given as a count, or if the
##  count is one the input characters before the cursor are taken (as decimal
##  number or as hex number which starts with <C>0x</C>. For example, the 
##  double stroke character &#8484; can be input by any of the three key
##  sequences <B>Esc 8484 Ctrl-g</B>, <B>8484 Ctrl-g</B> or <B>0x2124
##  Ctrl-g</B>.
##  <P/>
##  
##  Some terminals bind the <B>Ctrl-s</B> and <B>Ctrl-q</B> keys to stop and
##  restart terminal  output. Furthermore,  sometimes <B>Ctrl-\</B>  quits a
##  program. To disable this behaviour (and maybe use these keys for command
##  line editing)  you can use  <C>Exec("stty stop undef; stty  start undef;
##  stty quit undef");</C> in your &GAP; session or your <F>gaprc</F> file
##  (see <Ref Sect="sect:gap.ini"/>).
##  <P/>

##  <Heading>The command line history</Heading>
##  
##  &GAP; can save your input lines for later reuse. The keys <B>Ctrl-p</B>
##  (or <B>Up</B>), <B>Ctrl-n</B> (or <B>Down</B>), 
##  <B>ESC&lt;</B> and <B>ESC&gt;</B> work as documented in <Ref
##  Sect="Line Editing"/>, that is they scroll backward and
##  forward in the history or go to its beginning or end. 
##  Also, <B>Ctrl-o</B> works as documented, it is useful for repeating a
##  sequence of previous lines.
##  (But <B>Ctrl-l</B> clears the screen as in other programs.) 
##  <P/>
##  
##  The command line history can be used across several instances of &GAP;
##  via the following two commands.
##  </Subsection>
##  
##  <ManSection >
##  <Func Arg="[fname], [app]" Name="SaveCommandLineHistory" />
##  <Returns><K>fail</K> or number of saved lines</Returns>
##  <Func Arg="[fname]" Name="ReadCommandLineHistory" />
##  <Returns><K>fail</K> or number of added lines</Returns>
##  
##  <Description>
##  The first  command saves the  lines in the  command line history  to the
##  file given by  the string <A>fname</A>. The default  for <A>fname</A> is
##  <F>history</F> in the user's &GAP; root path <C>GAPInfo.UserGapRoot</C>
##  or  <F>"~/.gap_hist"</F>  if this directory does not exist.
##  If   the  optional  argument  <A>app</A>  is
##  <K>true</K> then the lines are appended  to that file otherwise the file
##  is overwritten.
##  <P/>
##  The  second command  is  the  converse, it  reads  the  lines from  file
##  <A>fname</A> and <Emph>prepends</Emph> them  to the current command line
##  history.
##  <P/>
##  By  default  an  arbitrary  number  of input  lines  is  stored  in  the
##  command  line  history.  For  very   long  &GAP;  sessions  or  if  <Ref
##  Func="SaveCommandLineHistory"/> and <Ref Func="ReadCommandLineHistory"/>
##  are used repeatedly  it can be sensible to restrict  the number of saved
##  lines via <C>SetUserPreference("HistoryMaxLines", num);</C>
##  to a non negative number <C>num</C> (the default is <K>infinity</K>).
##  An automatic storing and restoring  of the command line history can
##  be configured via 
##  <C>SetUserPreference("SaveAndRestoreHistory", true);</C>.
##  <P/>
##  Note that these functions are only available if your &GAP; is configured
##  to use the <C>readline</C> library.

##  
##  <Heading>Writing your own command line editing functions</Heading>
##  It is possible to write new command line editing functions in &GAP; as
##  follows.
##  <P/>
##  The functions have one argument <A>l</A> which is a list with five
##  entries of the form <C>[count, key, line, cursorpos, markpos]</C> where
##  <C>count</C> and <C>key</C> are the last pressed key and its count 
##  (these are not so useful here because users probably do not want to
##  overwrite the binding of a single key), then <C>line</C> is a string
##  containing the line typed so far, <C>cursorpos</C> is the current 
##  position of the cursor (point), and <C>markpos</C> the current position
##  of the mark. 
##  <P/>
##  The result of such a  function must  be a list which can have various
##  forms:
##  <List >
##  <Mark><C>[str]</C></Mark>
##  <Item>with a string <C>str</C>. In this case the text <C>str</C> is
##  inserted at the cursor position.</Item>
##  <Mark><C>[kill, begin, end]</C></Mark> 
##  <Item> where <C>kill</C> is <K>true</K> or <K>false</K> and <C>begin</C>
##  and <C>end</C> are positions on the input line. This removes the text 
##  from the lower position to before the higher position. If <C>kill</C>
##  is <K>true</K> the text is killed, i.e. put in the kill ring for later 
##  yanking.
##  </Item>
##  <Mark><C>[begin, end, str]</C></Mark>
##  <Item>where <C>begin</C> and <C>end</C> are positions on the input line
##  and <C>str</C> is a string.
##  Then the text from position <C>begin</C> to before <C>end</C> is
##  substituted by <C>str</C>.
##  </Item>
##  <Mark><C>[1, lstr]</C></Mark>
##  <Item>
##  where <C>lstr</C> is a list of strings. Then these strings are displayed
##  like a list of possible completions. The input line is not changed.
##  </Item>
##  <Mark><C>[2, chars]</C></Mark>
##  <Item>where <C>chars</C> is a string. The characters from <C>chars</C>
##  are used as the next characters from the input. (At most 512 characters
##  are possible.)</Item>
##  <Mark><C>[100]</C></Mark>
##  <Item>This rings the bell as configured in the terminal.</Item>
##  </List>
##  
##  In the first three cases the result list can contain a position as a
##  further entry, this becomes the new cursor position. Or it
##  can contain two positions as further entries, these become the new
##  cursor position and the new position of the mark.
##  <P/>
##  
##  Such a function can be installed as a macro for <C>readline</C> via
##  <C>InstallReadlineMacro(name, fun);</C> where <C>name</C> is a string
##  used as name of the macro and <C>fun</C> is a function as above.
##  This macro can be called by a key sequence which is returned by
##  <C>InvocationReadlineMacro(name);</C>.
##  <P/>
##  As an example we define a function which puts double quotes around the
##  word under or before the cursor position. The space character, the 
##  characters in <C>"(,)"</C>, and the beginning and end of the line
##  are considered as word boundaries. The function is then installed as a 
##  macro and bound to the key sequence <B>Esc</B> <B>Q</B>. 
##  <P/>
