Summary

rlwrap, a wrapper for GNU readline. can be used with an interactive Tcl to provide readline editing and command history functionality.

Description

To use it with tclsh, start tclsh with:

rlwrap tclsh

Useful options are -c (file name completion) and -f (add words from a file to the completion list).

To use rlwrap with tclsh with file name completion type:

rlwrap -c tclsh

It would be nice to have a file of all words used in Tcl: commands and subcommands to set rlwrap up using the -f option.

info commands and info procs could help with that. Maybe there are some *.syn files out there to provide such a database.
