[Pythonmac-SIG] Re: Readline on the Mac

[Rob Managan]

I finally answered my own question!

I am able to use the framework version of readline with standard Unix 
apps when I put these sym links in

ln -s /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/readline.framework/Headers readline
ln -s /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/readline.framework/readline 
/usr/local/lib/libreadline.a

This gives the #include <readline/readline.h> syntax that is needed. 
The second line lets my old makefile find the library.
