rlfe
Front-end using readline to "cook" input lines for other programs
This tool lets you use history and line-editing in any text oriented tool. This is especially useful with third-party proprietary tools that cannot be distributed linked against readline. It is not perfect but it works pretty well. See the ledit and rlwrap packages for other programs of that kind.

GNU readline and history libraries, debugging libraries
The GNU readline library aids in the consistency of user interface across discrete programs that need to provide a command line interface. The GNU history library provides a consistent user interface for recalling lines of previously typed input.
