    Issue #6953: Rearrange and expand Readline module documentation · 0f767394
    Martin Panter yazdı
    * Group functions into six new subsections
    * Document the underlying Readline function or variable accessed
    * get_history_length() returns the history file limit
    * clear_history() is conditionally compiled in
    * Clarify zero and one bases for history item indexes
    * parse_and_bind() uses its argument directly as an init line
    * Change "command line" to "line buffer" for consistency
    * read_init_file() also executes the file
    * read_history_file() replaces the previous history
    * write_history_file() overwrites any existing file
    * Differentiate history file lines from history list items, which could be
      multi-line
    * Add more information about completion, also addressing Issue #10796
    * libedit (Editline) may be used on any platform; detection is OS X specific
