#31747 closed defect

SQLite3 + readline: ESC + Backspace behaves wrong — at Version 1

Reported by: elzhov@… Owned by: mww@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.0.3
Keywords: Cc:
Port: libedit sqlite3

Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))

In the past, the sequent typing of ESC and Backspace deleted the last word, as in any readline-bound application, in the bash for instance. Now it deletes the entire line from the end to start.

$ port info sqlite3
sqlite3 @3.7.8, Revision 1 (databases)

sqlite3 uses libedit now, not readline, for licensing reasons. Perhaps libedit behaves subtly differently from readline?
