+<HEAD><TITLE>The tecla command-line editing library.</TITLE></HEAD>
+<BODY bgcolor=add8e6>
+<H1>The Tecla command-line editing library.</H1>
+
+The tecla library provides UNIX and LINUX programs with interactive
+command line editing facilities, similar to those of the UNIX tcsh
+shell. In addition to simple command-line editing, it supports recall
+of previously entered command lines, TAB completion of file names or
+other tokens, and in-line wild-card expansion of filenames.  The
+internal functions which perform file-name completion and wild-card
+expansion are also available externally for optional use by programs.
+<P>
+In addition, the library includes a path-searching module.  This
+allows an application to provide completion and lookup of files
+located in UNIX style paths. Although not built into the line editor
+by default, it can easily be called from custom tab-completion
+callback functions. This was originally conceived for completing the
+names of executables and providing a way to look up their locations in
+the user's PATH environment variable, but it can easily be asked to
+look up and complete other types of files in any list of directories.
+
+<P>
+Note that special care has been taken to allow the use of this library
+in threaded programs. The option to enable this is discussed in the
+Makefile, and specific discussions of thread safety are presented in
+the included man pages.
+<P>
+The current version is version 1.6.1. This may be obtained from:

+<H2>Portability</H2>
+
+In principle, the standard version of the library should compile
+without any problems on any UNIX or UNIX like system. So far it has
+been reported to work on the following systems:
+
+<pre>
+  Sun Solaris 2.5,2.6,7,8,9 with any of gcc, Sun C, or g++.
+  Mandrake Linux 7.1 etc.., gcc
+  Red Hat Linux 7 etc.., gcc
+  Fedora Core 1, gcc
+  Suse Linux 6.4, gcc
+  IBM AIX 4.3.3, gcc
+  HP-UX 10.20, HP-UX 11, gcc, c89
+  FreeBSD, gcc
+  Alpha OSF1, cc, gcc
+  Mac OS X
+  Cygwin (running under Windows)
+  QNX
+  NetBSD 1.6, 386, gcc
+  SGI IRIX 6.5
+</pre>
+
+There haven't been many reports concerning the POSIX reentrant
+version, so the absence of any of the above from the following list of
+systems on which the reentrant version is known to work, shouldn't be
+taken as an indication that the reentrant version doesn't work.
+
+<pre>
+  Sun Solaris 2.5,2.6,7,8,9 with any of gcc, Sun C, or g++.
+  Mandrake Linux, gcc
+  RedHat Linux, gcc
+  Fedora Core, gcc
+  SuSE Linux, gcc
+  HP-UX 11, gcc
+  IBM AIX 4.3.3, gcc
+  Alpha OSF1, cc
+  SGI IRIX 6.5
+</pre>
+
+The only system that is known to have issues with the reentrant
+version of the library is SCO UnixWare 7.1.1. The problem is in the
+system provided signal.h, which breaks when POSIX_C_SOURCE is
+defined. It has been reported that this can be "fixed" by editing
+signal.h.
+
+<P>
+If you compile the library on a system that isn't mentioned above,
+please send E-mail to <b>mcs@astro.caltech.edu</b>.
