.PP

The advantage of \fBtclreadline\fP is that it uses the callback
handler mechanism of the gnu readline while it processes tcl
events. This way X events from a wish gui will processed as
well as events from the \fPtclreadline\fP line interface.

.PP

\fBtclreadline\fP is basically a shared library and a few tcl scripts
which are accessed with the tcl package require command. Therefore
\fBtclreadline\fP should work with all common extensions like
\fBblt, itcl, itk, tix ...\fP.
