2013-01-19Add search to Erlang shell's historyFred Hebert
Search mode can be entered by pressing ctrl-r. Enter terms and press ctrl-r again to search backwards, or ctrl-s to then search forward (if you terminal doesn't eat up that one). Press enter to execute the line, or use tab, arrow keys, or other control sequences (^D, ^K, etc.) to exit search mode while remaining on the last found line. Exiting is also possible by pressing the escape key twice. The search mode is a simpler version of the one available in bash or zsh shells. This adds a few modes to the shell (search, on top of none and meta) in group.erl for history search, and a few more in edlin.erl to change the meaning of control sequences while searching.

2010-05-19Merge branch 'dp/shell-line-editing' into devErlang/OTP
* dp/shell-line-editing: Readline-style line edit history OTP-8635 dp/shell-line-editing The shell's line editing has been improved to more resemble the behaviour of readline and other shells. (Thanks to Dave Peticolas)
2010-03-09Readline-style line edit historyDave Peticolas
Change the shell's line buffer mechanism to more closely match readline-based shells. New behavior: 1. Blank lines are not added to the line buffer. 2. Pressing the down arrow on the last line causes no change. The previous behavior erased the line. 3. The new line is temporarily added to the line buffer so the user can move to previous lines with up arrows and then back to the new line with down arrows. The previous behavior discarded the partially written new line. 4. Changes made to previous lines while exploring the line buffer history are preserved. The previous behavior discarded changes made to older lines.
