Improvements in rlwrap 0.45.2 offer refined input management and integrate new functionalities within the Fedora 34 setup, including several crucial updates.

Summary

rlwrap is a 'readline wrapper' that uses the GNU readline library to

allow the editing of keyboard input for any other command. Input

history is remembered across invocations, separately for each command;

history completion and search work as in bash and completion word

lists can be specified on the command line.

# New features: ## 0.45 - --only-cook '!' enables confident mode where

every possible prompt that matches a regexp is cooked immediately (so

that even prompts that get printed while handling a large paste are cooked).

- --no-children (-N) now enables direct mode whenever the client switches

to the alternate screen. This makes editors and pagers usable even when

using --always-readline on non-linux systems --always-echo echoes user input

even when the client has switched off ECHO. - filter makefilter to easily

employ shell commands (like sed, or grep) as rlwrap filters - filters can

change (some) bindable and internal readline variables with a new

RlwrapFilter method tweak_readline_oob() # Bug fixes: ## 0.45.2 - rlwrap

enables bracketed-paste when instructed to do so by .inputrc, but would then

never disable it at exit. - rlwrap -z (i.e. rlwrap when using a filter) would

still open /tmp/rlwrap.debug after forking the filter command, preventing other

users from running it afterwards ## 0.45.1 - rlwrap would always open

/tmp/rlwrap.debug after forking child command, preventing other users from

running it. - Fix args to setitimer() call to prevent EINVAL error on return -advise about --always-readline if in direct mode at first user ENTER keystroke -check for I_SWROPT even if isastream() is present (compile would fail on Oracle

linux) ## 0.45 - rlwrap now correctly handles bracketed paste - --ansi-colour-aware (-A) didn't do anything at all. Now it recognises colour codes as

well as common control codes like window titles.
