Support for building Lix with [`readline`][readline] instead of
|
||
|
|
[`editline`][editline] has been removed. `readline` support hasn't worked for a
|
||
|
|
long time (attempting to use it would lead to build errors) and would make Lix
|
||
|
|
subject to the GPL if it did work. In the future, we're hoping to replace
|
||
|
|
`editline` with [`rustyline`][rustyline] for improved ergonomics in the `nix
|
||
|
|
repl`.
