   44/** <module> GNU readline interface
   45
   46This library binds GNU  libreadline  to   SWI-Prolog.  The  GNU readline
   47library provides emacs and vi based  editing   of  queries on the Prolog
   48toplevel, including TAB-based completion and history.
   49
   50This library is by default  loaded   into  an interactive Prolog process
   51that is connected to a  (Unix)  terminal.   Loading  can  be  stopped by
   52setting the Prolog flag `readline` to `false`.
   53
   54@license Although the  interface  is   BSD-licensed,  the  GNU  readline
   55library itself is covered by  the   GPL  (General  Public License). This
   56implies that loading this  library  in   an  application  makes all code
   57loaded into the application subject to the GPL conditions.
