I made a replacement for the readline.c module used by the samba client programs. This version of smb_readline() used the VMS SMG library to provide command line recall and will also invoke the callback function, if supplied by the caller, every time the keyboard is idle for 5 seconds. The callback handling makes things a little quirky, but doesn't really interfere with entering the commands.
The new module is in the zip file: http://www.er6.eng.ohio-state.edu/~jonesd/samba/vms_readline.zip ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- David L.
