# DESCRIPTION
 
8
#
 
9
#   Searches for a readline compatible library. If found, defines
 
10
#   `HAVE_LIBREADLINE'. If the found library has the `add_history'
 
11
#   function, sets also `HAVE_READLINE_HISTORY'. Also checks for the
 
12
#   locations of the necessary include files and sets `HAVE_READLINE_H'
 
13
#   or `HAVE_READLINE_READLINE_H' and `HAVE_READLINE_HISTORY_H' or
 
14
#   'HAVE_HISTORY_H' if the corresponding include files exists.
 
15
#
 
16
#   The libraries that may be readline compatible are `libedit',
 
17
#   `libeditline' and `libreadline'. Sometimes we need to link a
 
18
#   termcap library for readline to work, this macro tests these cases
 
19
#   too by trying to link with `libtermcap', `libcurses' or
 
20
#   `libncurses' before giving up.
 
21
#
 
22
#   Here is an example of how to use the information provided by this
 
23
#   macro to perform the necessary includes or declarations in a C
 
24
#   file:
 
25
#
 
26
#     #ifdef HAVE_LIBREADLINE
 
27
#     #  if defined(HAVE_READLINE_READLINE_H)
 
28
#     #    include <readline/readline.h>
 
29
#     #  elif defined(HAVE_READLINE_H)
 
30
#     #    include <readline.h>
 
31
#     #  else /* !defined(HAVE_READLINE_H) */
 
32
#     extern char *readline ();
 
33
#     #  endif /* !defined(HAVE_READLINE_H) */
 
34
#     char *cmdline = NULL;
 
35
#     #else /* !defined(HAVE_READLINE_READLINE_H) */
 
36
#       /* no readline */

#     #endif /* HAVE_LIBREADLINE */

#     #ifdef HAVE_READLINE_HISTORY
 
40
#     #  if defined(HAVE_READLINE_HISTORY_H)
 
41
#     #    include <readline/history.h>
 
42
#     #  elif defined(HAVE_HISTORY_H)
 
43
#     #    include <history.h>
 
44
#     #  else /* !defined(HAVE_HISTORY_H) */
 
45
