    [B.28] Is there readline/history support for the input in XBoard/Winboard?

    + +

    There is a special ICS input box that has history support which is +the standard in Winboard and can be used in XBoard too.

    +

    Another good tip from Michel van der Bergh is to use the rlwarp +program together with XBoard which gives you full readline support. +Just run "rlwrap xboard" instead of just "xboard". The rlwarp program +should be available for most linux distributions or can be downloaded +at: +http://utopia.knoware.nl/~hlub/uck/rlwrap/. +
