[ANNOUNCEMENT] New: {libedit/libedit0/libedit-devel}-20090923-1


I just uploaded the new "libedit" package to cygwin.com.

This package is a requirement to get improved edit capabilities in the
sftp tool from the OpenSSH package.  A new OpenSSH package containing an
sftp tool linked against libedit will follow shortly.

"libedit" is an autotool- and libtoolized port of the NetBSD Editline
library.  It provides generic line editing, history, and tokenization
functions, similar to those found in GNU Readline.

The Cygwin version has been built from the Debian release 20090923-3.0.

Only a very small Cygwin-specific patch has been applied, which you'll
find in the source package as patches/cygwin.patch.


Enjoy,
Corinna
