THIS IS LIBRL-1.2 (the shared readline library for linux)

This package is:
 -    How to build a DLL jumptable version of libreadline.a

It is based on:
 -    Eric Youngdale's package of tools for building DLL libraries.

It contains:
 -    Unmodified sources of the readline library as distributed with
      bash-1.13.4.
 -    Some modifications to the Makefile. xmalloc.c is included.

It was originally designed by:
 -    Rob Hooft (hooft@EMBL-Heidelberg.DE)

It is currently maintained by:
 -    Mitchum DSouza (m.dsouza@mrc-apu.cam.ac.uk)

With help of:
 -    the DLL tools 2.9 package by Eric Youngdale.
 -    David Engel (david@ods.com), the original author of the JumpTables.
 -    H.J. Lu (hlu@eecs.wsu.edu), the maintainer of our GCC and libc.


To build the lib (you don't need to if you trust me):
 -    you need an installed 'tools' package.
 -    cd to readline directory and type `make'

To install the lib:
 -    copy libreadline.sa libreadline.a libhistory.a to /usr/lib
 -    copy librl.so.1.2 to /lib
 -    ln -sf /lib/librl.so.1.2 /lib/librl.so.1
