That's right, it's been a while. "pro" was the C preprocessor, "plus" was the gawdhawful CLI.
Thanks for the tip on rlwrap, in case I have to use that thing again. I'm assuming it provides GNU readline support on top of the base tool.
- mickeyp 14y agoEven if you're not an Emacs guy you may want to consider using it with the sqlplus.el module. It adds a nice table formatter and other features to make SQL*Plus more palatable.
- sehrope 14y agoYes, rlwrap provides GNU readline atop just about anything. When I write my REPL tools (test utilities, etc) I usually wrap them for local use in rlwrap as 99% of the time it's what you want.
