1readline 2======== 3 4Provides generic line editing, history, and tokenization functions. 5See https://www.php.net/manual/en/book.readline.php 6 7Implementation Details 8---------------------- 9 10C variables starting with `rl_*` are declared by the readline library 11(or are macros referring to variables from the libedit library). 12See http://web.mit.edu/gnu/doc/html/rlman_2.html 13 14This should only be used in the CLI SAPI. 15Historically, the code lived in sapi/cli, 16but many distributions build readline as a shared extension. 17Therefore, that code was split into ext/readline so that this can dynamically 18be loaded. With other SAPIs, readline is/should be disabled. 19 20`readline_cli.c` implements most of the interactive shell(`php -a`). 21
