devel/p5-Term-ReadLine-Gnu 1.47 OpenBSD

Term::ReadLine::Gnu (TRG) is an implementation of the interface to the GNU Readline Library. This module gives you input line editing facility, input history management facility, word completion facility, etc. It uses the real GNU Readline Library and has the interface with the almost all variables and functions which are documented in the GNU Readline/History Library. So you can program your custom editing function, your custom completion function, and so on with Perl. TRG may be useful for prototyping before programming with C.

TRG is upper compatible with Term::ReadLine included in Perl distribution. Term::ReadLine uses TRG automatically when TRG is available. You can enjoy full line editing feature with Perl debugger which use Term::ReadLine with no patch.
