NAME

Reply::Plugin::ReadLine - use Term::ReadLine for user input

VERSION

version 0.41

SYNOPSIS

  ; .replyrc
  [ReadLine]
  history_file = .hist
  history_length = 100

DESCRIPTION

This plugin uses Term::ReadLine to read lines from the user. This enables useful features such as line editing and command history. The history will be persisted between runs, by default in .reply_history in your application data directory, although this is changeable with the history_file option. To limit the number of lines written to this file, you can use the history_length option. Setting a history_length of 0 will disable writing history to a file entirely.

NOTE: you probably want to install a reasonable Term::ReadLine backend in order for this plugin to be very useful. Term::ReadLine::Gnu is highly recommended if possible.
