Port of the week: rlwrap

NILToday 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
