Re^2: emulate the Term::ReadLine's two arguments form

"preput" it is. Good work++. Here's my attempt at a preput.

#!/usr/bin/perl -l

use strict;
use warnings;

use Term::ReadLine;

my $term = new Term::ReadLine "Default Input";
my $input = $term->readline("Enter some text: ", "What do you want to 
+say?");
print "You entered: $input";

thanks to you all, but the problem is that in the previous posted code, in my two installations the 'editable second arg' is simply ignored. more: i cannot succesfully load the T:RL:Perl module in the starwberry installation: the error is my first post. if i load directly that module in a script, nothing special appens nor error catched by strict or warning.. how can i then replicate this behavior in every Perl installation? thanks L* there are no rules, there are no thumbs..

Term::ReadLine::Perl and Term::ReadLine::Gnu were only meant to be downloaded and installed---that's all. They merely provide some needed functionality for Term::ReadLine. Don't try to use them directly.	[reply]

many thanks, though the subject remain a little obscure to me.. there are no rules, there are no thumbs..	[reply] [d/l]

So install it by hand, as I told you I'm pretty sure even copying should do it andš if you want to distribute your app, include that module into it. Cheers Rolf š) updated	[reply]
