Very Computer

I'm trying to get command line editing on a program that reads directly
from sockets.  (Basically, you telnet to a port, and are given a
command prompt) I've used fdopen() on the socket fd, and handed
rl_instream and rl_outstream the resulting FILE *.

readline gets the data, but it seems terminal cooked.  None of the
history or editing commands work, and there are double-echos on the
socket.

So, how do I convince readline that the socket is indeed a terminal, and
that raw (vs cooked) io can occur?

Any help would be appreciated.

Before you buy.

When all else fails RTFM . . . The late Richard Stevens' book, Advanced
Programming in the Unix Environment, that was gathering dust on my
shelf, reminded me what a pseudo-terminal is, and how to use it. . .

Back to coding!
