7The tecla library provides UNIX and LINUX programs with interactive
8command line editing facilities, similar to those of the unix tcsh
9shell. In addition to simple command-line editing, it supports recall
10of previously entered command lines, TAB completion of file names, and
11in-line wild-card expansion of filenames. The internal functions
12which perform file-name completion and wild-card expansion are also
13available externally for optional use by programs, along with a module
14for tab-completion and lookup of filenames in a list of directories.
15
16Note that special care has been taken to allow the use of this library
17in threaded programs. The option to enable this is discussed in the
18Makefile, and specific discussions of thread safety are presented in
19the included man pages.
