The <function>readline</function> functions implement an interface
|
|
|
|
|
to the GNU Readline library. These are functions that provide
|
|
|
|
|
editable command lines. An example being the way Bash allows you
|
|
|
|
|
to use the arrow keys to insert characters or scroll through
|
|
|
|
|
command history. Because of the interactive nature of this
|
|
|
|
|
library, it will be of little use for writing Web applications,
|
|
|
|
|
but may be useful when writing scripts meant to be run from a
|
|
|
|
|
shell.

To use the readline functions, you need to install libreadline and
|
|
|
|
|
compile PHP with support for readline.

To compile PHP with readline support, you need to configure PHP
|
|
|
|
|
<option role="configure">--with-readline</option> after you've installed
|
|
|
|
|
libreadline. You can find libreadline on the home page of the GNU
|
|
|
|
|
Readline project, at <ulink url="&url.readline;">&url.readline;</ulink>.
