in reply to Pressing Delete key ends Term::ReadLine loop

When I run this code, pressing Delete (or Esc, or Backspace) has no effect on the loop. In fact, the only way I’ve found to exit the loop (without killing the whole script) is to enter Control-Z. So I’m fairly confident that the behaviour you’re seeing is not how the module is supposed to work.

My system: Windows 8.1 64-bit, Strawberry Perl 5.18.2 64-bit multi-threaded, Term::ReadLine 1.14, Term::ReadLine::Perl 1.0303, Term::ReadLine::Gnu not installed.

Have you tried re-installing Term::ReadLine and Term::ReadLine::Perl?
