Modified version of Judah's patch
}}}
I decided to put the history file in `~/.ghc/ghci_history`, as we're
starting to use `~/.ghc` consistently for GHC-related configuration files
now.
Also I limited the history to 100 items only when saving the file, during
a GHCi run there is no limit (as before).

I wrote the bindings (basically a copy and paste from the add_history binding). I also wrote a simple patch to InteractiveUI.hs to implement the actually history tracking that seems to work correctly, I don't know if we need to check that the file exists or anything. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/2050#comment:4 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler___ Glasgow-haskell-bugs mailing list Glasgow-haskell-bugs@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-bugs

This would be especially useful in testing: if one is trying to get a certain command to work, and the command is at all complicated, it is annoying to have to copy and paste or retype the command every time you want to see if the function works. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/2050 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler___ Glasgow-haskell-bugs mailing list Glasgow-haskell-bugs@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-bugs

The header `readline/history.h` provides the functions `read_history` and `write_history` which are also present in editline. This task will be easy to implement if we add those to the readline and editline packages. (Although, a pure Haskell implementation would probably also be pretty easy to write.) -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/2050#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler___ Glasgow-haskell-bugs mailing list Glasgow-haskell-bugs@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-bugs
