I just compared with scsh-0.5.0 and am no longer worried about this: the existing read-line appears to be twice as fast as scsh's. But it can be made much faster (twice as fast again in the hair I posted earlier), so I'll keep experimenting. We may be able to achieve high performance without sacrificing compatibility. love, T.
