Re^2: term::readline::gnu extra spaces on completion

Thanks for you suggestions:

use Term::ReadLine;

my $pkg = Term::ReadLine->ReadLine();
print "Term::ReadLine->ReadLine() says \'$pkg\'\n";

my $pkg2 = $ENV{PERL_RL};
print "ENV(PERL_RL) says \'$pkg2\'\n";
print "\@Term::ReadLine::ISA says ", @Term::ReadLine::ISA, "\n";
[download]

gives:

$ perl ../Tools/term_check.pl
Term::ReadLine->ReadLine() says 'Term::ReadLine::Gnu'
ENV(PERL_RL) says ''
@Term::ReadLine::ISA says Term::ReadLine::GnuTerm::ReadLine::Stub

So, as far as I can tell, I am running the Gnu version.

Hmm ... You could check the version of your GRL, it has to be higher than 4.3 for rl_completion_suppress_append to work. I don't have any more ideas after that I'm afraid.	[reply]

According to the cygwin installer, I'm using readline7. So it /should/ work. I also checked the installed dlls and indeed it is version7.	[reply]
