Hello Chet,

readline-6.2 complete.c get_y_or_n:
  /* For now, disable pager in callback mode, until we later convert to state
     driven functions.  Have to wait until next major version to add new
     state definition, since it will change value of RL_STATE_DONE. */
#if defined (READLINE_CALLBACKS)
  if (RL_ISSTATE (RL_STATE_CALLBACK))
    return 1;
#endif

this makes readline not much suitable with GDB as GDB uses it only in callback
mode and thus any large <tab>-completion are printed without any question.

What is the schedule for `next major version' and/or is there an approved hack
in the meantime?


Thanks,
Jan
