Today I will present **misc/rlwrap** which is an utility tool when you
use some command-line software which doesn't provide you a nice
readline input. By using rlwrap, you will be able to use telnet, a
language REPL or any command-line tool where you input text with an
history of what you type, ability to use emacs bindings like C-a C-e
M-Ret etc... I use it often with telnet or sbcl.
Usage :
$ rlwrap telnet host port
