NAME

       Devel::REPL::Plugin::ReadLineHistory - Integrate history with the facilities provided by Term::ReadLine

DESCRIPTION

       This plugin enables loading and saving command line history from a file as well has history expansion of
       previous commands using the !-syntax a la bash.

       By default, history expansion is enabled with this plugin when using Term::ReadLine::Gnu. That means that
       "loose" '!' characters will be treated as history events which may not be what you wish.

       To avoid this, you need to quote the '!' with '\':

         my $var = "foo\!";

       or place the arguments in single quotes---but enable the "Term::ReadLine" attribute
       "history_quotes_inhibit_expansion":

         $_REPL->term->Attribs->{history_quotes_inhibit_expansion} = 1;
         my $var = 'foo!';

       and to disable history expansion from GNU readline/history do

         $_REPL->term->Attribs->{do_expand} = 0;

CONFLICTS

       Note that Term::ReadLine::Perl does not support a history expansion method.  In that case, you may wish
       to use the Devel::REPL History plugin which provides similar functions.  Work is underway to make use of
       either History or ReadLineHistory consistent for expansion with either the Term::ReadLine::Gnu support or
       Term::ReadLine::Perl.
