- Subject: change bc to use readline
I recently installed another fresh copy of cygwin and was reminded of a
complaint I have with bc...
It doesn't ship with readline support built in - and the source doesn't
ship in a way that builds.
To get bc to compile (grabbing source using setup - the simple case):
* scan.l -- comment out the proto for readline: _PROTOTYPE(char
*readline, (char *));
* configure --with-readline
* make
---------
At the very least I'd like to see this patch applied to the source (so
at least readline support is easy to compile in).
Thanks!
