  44/** <module> GNU readline interface
  45
  46This library binds GNU  libreadline  to   SWI-Prolog.  The  GNU readline
  47library provides emacs and vi based  editing   of  queries on the Prolog
  48toplevel, including TAB-based completion and history.
  49
  50This library is by default  loaded   into  an interactive Prolog process
  51that is connected to a  (Unix)  terminal.   Loading  can  be  stopped by
  52setting the Prolog flag `readline` to `false`.
  53
  54@license Although the  interface  is   BSD-licensed,  the  GNU  readline
  55library itself is covered by  the   GPL  (General  Public License). This
  56implies that loading this  library  in   an  application  makes all code
  57loaded into the application subject to the GPL conditions.
