[R] readline editor

[Yuelin Li]

Which Linux/UNIX are you using?  

On Solaris 8 for SPARC the readline header files (history.h and 
readline.h, etc.) are located under /opt/sfw/include/readline.  
They have to be compiled with R from the source on Solaris.  You 
need to add this path to the CPPFLAGS variable in config.site.  
./configure --with-readline will not work.  You can use the tee 
utility to dump the output of configure to check if readline.h is 
found.

  Subject: [R] readline editor
  
  
  Dear all,
  
  I have a problem with the readline editor of R since it doesn't 
work.
  Setting ./configure --with-readline does not the fix the 
problem.
  
  Does anyone have an idea how to fix this? Many thanks in 
advance!
