This is a terse description of the new features added to readline-8.0 since the release of readline-7.0. New Features in Readline a. Non-incremental vi-mode search (`N', `n') can search for a shell pattern, as Posix specifies (uses fnmatch(3) if available). b. There are new `next-screen-line' and `previous-screen-line' bindable commands, which move the cursor to the same column in the next, or previous, physical line, respectively. c. There are default key bindings for control-arrow-key key combinations. d. A negative argument (-N) to `quoted-insert' means to insert the next N characters using quoted-insert. e. New public function: rl_check_signals(), which allows applications to respond to signals that readline catches while waiting for input using a custom read function. f. There is new support for conditionally testing the readline version in an inputrc file, with a full set of arithmetic comparison operators available. g. There is a simple variable comparison facility available for use within an inputrc file. Allowable operators are equality and inequality; string variables may be compared to a value; boolean variables must be compared to either `on' or `off'; variable names are separated from the operator by whitespace. h. The history expansion library now understands command and process substitution and extended globbing and allows them to appear anywhere in a word. i. The history library has a new variable that allows applications to set the initial quoting state, so quoting state can be inherited from a previous line. j. Readline now allows application-defined keymap names; there is a new public function, rl_set_keymap_name(), to do that. k. The "Insert" keypad key, if available, now puts readline into overwrite mode.
