tclreadline -- gnu readline for tcl
http://www.zellner.org/tclreadline/

    (b) Make sure you have gnu readline 2.2 or higher.
        tclreadline uses the gnu readline callback handler, which
        wasn't implemented in early releases.

    (c) The usual ./configure; make; make install sequence should do the rest.

    (d) Optionally (or additionally) you can build the executables
        tclshrl and / or wishrl which are a readline enhanced replacement
        for tclsh and wish. To compile these executable you should type
            make tclshrl

        or
            make wishrl
        or
	    ./configure --enable-tclshrl --enable-wishrl

            make shells
        the latter will compile both shells. To install these shells
        you should type
            make install-tclshrl
	(or one of these if you want just tclshrl or wishrl).
	NOTE that these executables need an installed version of
        or
            make install-wishrl
        or
	tclreadline because they need some script files to run
	so you can't test tclshrl/wishrl before installing
	the tclreadline scripts.

            make install-shells
        Building these executables is discouraged but necessary
        on systems which don't support shared libs.
        Building statically linked executables is DISCOURAGED
	but necessary on systems which don't support shared libs.

4. Using tclreadline for interactive tcl scripting.
---------------------------------------------------

copy the sample.tclshrc to $HOME/.tclshrc. If you use another interpreter
like wish, you should copy the file sample.tclshrc to $HOME/.wishrc
