Message-ID: <E1CSVV2-0003ql-M7@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <E1CSBOL-0000Ku-L4@kanga> (message from Nic Ferrier on Thu, 11 Nov 2004 09:37:21 +0000)

    What about history? Emacs' comint mode keeps quite a small history by
    default and also doesn't save the history in a file, many Readline
    programs do offer this.

If you are using comint, you have all the history in Emacs.
The history commands do not need to interact with the program.

    So I was proposing a completly new way of communicating with
    Readline. 

I thought these command would go thru the pty to the subprogram.
Are you thinking that Readline would talk to Emacs thru a socket?
That's ok if you make it work.

But you have not said what method of communication you have in mind.
Would you please say what it is?
