Compile pcretest so that it links with the libreadline - when pcretest's input is from a terminal, it reads it using the readline() function. This provides line-editing and history facilities. Then using readline pay attention to license issues - GNU Readline is a free software library which is licensed under the GNU General Public License, version 3. http://www.gnu.org/s/readline/

I am preparing a update to 8.30 and solve this not by linking to readline but libedit instead. Libedit is compatible (so no changes to source code needed) and we don't have to change the license. It is already tested on my side and works very well with -ledit -- Martin Matuska FreeBSD committer http://blog.vx.sk
