DESCRIPTION

26       This module provides a helper to construct pure ascii user interface on

28       either Term::ReadLine::Gnu or Term::ReadLine::Perl.
29
30       Depending on your installation, either Term::ReadLine::Gnu or
31       Term::ReadLine::Perl. See Term::ReadLine to override default choice.

BUGS

53       ·   Auto-completion is not complete.
54
55       ·   Auto-completion provides wrong choice when you try to "cd" in a
56           hash where the index contains a white space. I.e. the correct
57           command is "cd foo:"a b"" instead of "cd foo: "a b"" as proposed by
58           auto completion.
59
60       ·   UI should take into account experience.
