slackbuilds/misc/rlwrap

rlwrap is a 'readline wrapper' that uses the GNU readline library
to allow the editing of keyboard input for any other command. Input
history is remembered across invocations, separately for each command;
history completion and search work as in bash and completion word
lists can be specified on the command line.

You will need to create the ~/.rlwrap directory (or wherever RLWRAP_HOME is
set to) or rlwrap will complain and exit.
