Hi,

Line editing doesn't work when debugging on my
RedHat Linux machine.
For example, I cannot edit/repeat previous commands.
According to the Camel Book, I need to have
Term::ReadKey and Term::ReadLine installed.
I tested both, and they seem to work allright.

Does anybody have an idea what I am missing?

Thanks,

Theo van den Heuvel

It works for me.

linux% cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Linux release 9 (Shrike)
linux% perl -d -e 1

Loading DB routines from perl5db.pl version 1.23
Editor support available.
Enter h or `h h' for help, or `man perldebug' for more help.

"Editor support" = Control-P and up-arrow are functional.

Make sure all the parts are there.

Thanks Joe,

I noticed some differences (apart from version stuff)
that lead me to reinstall Readline and Term-ReadLine-Perl.
That took care of it. It works.
