Re: Error: unbound variable: readline#make-readline-port

[Damien MATTEI]

thank Vasilij, it works now with both

with linenoise, adding that in .csirc:


(use linenoise)
(current-input-port (make-linenoise-port))

(set-history-length! 300)

(load-history-from-file "/home/mattei/.chicken-scheme-history")

(let loop ((expr (linenoise "> ")))
              (cond ((equal? expr "(bye)")
                             (save-history-to-file 
"/home/mattei/.chicken-scheme-history")
                             (exit))
                    (else
                        (display (eval (read (open-input-string expr))))
                        (newline)
                        (history-add expr)
                        (loop (linenoise "> ")))))


and with readline:

(use readline)
(current-input-port (make-readline-port))

(install-history-file #f ".chicken-scheme-history")
