+       "The GNU Readline library provides a set of functions for use by
+applications that allow users to edit command lines as they are typed in.
+Both Emacs and vi editing modes are available.  The Readline library includes
+additional functions to maintain a list of previously-entered command lines,
+to recall and perhaps reedit those lines, and perform csh-like history
+expansion on previous commands.
+
+The history facilites are also placed into a separate library, the History
+library, as part of the build process.  The History library may be used
+without Readline in applications which desire its capabilities.")
