in short: better not use readline ;)

It will load if it's present, but we'll work fine if it isn't. And that's assuming you're using the native binding, possibly installed as a gem.

fair enough

Besides that... what are the issue you have with jline that caused you to fork it? We are using that as well, so I am interested to know.

We've submitted several patches, some of which have been included and some not. In general, though, it's the slow pace of development and the difficulty of getting a release pushed out that led me to clone it to github.

The latest issue was the behavior of Ctrl-D for line editing: it would quit the process if nothing was in the buffer, but otherwise did nothing. It should also delete the character under the cursor, if any. I could find no way to wire this behavior up from the outside, and a patch was necessary. I submitted a patch on sf.net, posted it and a dev build of jline to the bug, and cloned to github so I could apply my patch there.

but you see... from me doing a bit research about the activity of this project I see your bug report from not even 5 days ago and that's it. Did you talk to the project maintainer, and I do not mean Jason, who has become another admin of that project for the sake of fixing some issues Groovy had with it.

I just mean instead of forking that project, maybe the original founder is no longer really interested in keeping it around and maybe he wants to give away the whole project.

I can not really tell what happened because if there was any communication it was using direct mails, not the forum or the tracker.
