REPL auto-completion in windows ?

[jamesqiu]

Anybody here use newlisp REPL under windows or cygwin ?

Is it possible to make REPL (not editor) support TAB auto-complete function name?

[Lutz]

The tab-expansion in the REPL depends on the UNIX readline C-library. The Cygwin flavor of newLISP is compiled using this library. Until six years ago, newLISP was delivered as a Cygwin app. on Windows, but this changed during the year 2005. Today, the Windows version is compiled using MinGW which does not include the readline library.



The source distribution contains a makefile_cygwin, which was added back beginning of 2010, and some changes where added to the source for Cygwin by a user. So, perhaps it is still possible to compile for Cygwin. The Cygwin version of newLISP does not need a full version of Cygwin to run. Only the cygwin1.dll library needs to be present.

[TedWalther]

Also, can you try using "configure-alt" and see if that works under cygwin?

cygwin under win7 64bit

./config-alt

Thank you for running configure-alt.



Can you paste the contents of makefile_build, makefile_install, and config.h here so I can see what output it generated?

Note! on some systems use gmake instead of make.

Note! not all makefiles are listed in this help, specifically 64-bit versions.



Readline is for commandline editing support and requires libreadline and headerfiles.

Not all makefiles contain libreadline support, but is easy to add (see other makefieles).

If there is no UTF-8 option for your OS, consult makefile_xxx.



For more customization options (exe dir, install dir, 64-biti, etc) see the file doc/INSTALL
