Source[det]el_wrap
[det]el_wrap(+Options)
Enable using editline on the standard user streams if user_input is connected to a terminal. This is the high level predicate used for most purposes. The remainder of the library interface deals with low level predicates that allows for applying and programming libedit in non-standard situations.

The library is registered with ProgName set to swipl (see el_wrap/4).

Options processed:

pipes(+Boolean)
Used by Epilog windows to indicate we are reading from a Windows named pipe in overlapped mode. Ignored on other platforms.
history(+Size)
Size of the history. Default is defined by the Prolog flag history or 100 if this flag is not defined.
alert_signo(+Integer)
Signal used for making thread_signal/2 work while the thread is in a blocking system call.
