+
+CCOOPPYYRRIIGGHHTT
+ The GNU History Library is Copyright (C) 1989-2001 by the
+ Free Software Foundation, Inc.
+
+DDEESSCCRRIIPPTTIIOONN
+ Many programs read input from the user a line at a time.
+ The GNU History library is able to keep track of those
+ lines, associate arbitrary data with each line, and uti-
+ lize information from previous lines in composing new
+ ones.
+
+
+HHIISSTTOORRYY EEXXPPAANNSSIIOONN
+ The history library supports a history expansion feature
+ that is identical to the history expansion in bbaasshh.. This
+ section describes what syntax features are available.
+
+ History expansions introduce words from the history list
+ into the input stream, making it easy to repeat commands,
+ insert the arguments to a previous command into the cur-
+ rent input line, or fix errors in previous commands
+ quickly.
+
+ History expansion is usually performed immediately after a
+ complete line is read. It takes place in two parts. The
+ first is to determine which line from the history list to
+ use during substitution. The second is to select portions
+ of that line for inclusion into the current one. The line
+ selected from the history is the _e_v_e_n_t, and the portions
+ of that line that are acted upon are _w_o_r_d_s. Various _m_o_d_i_-
+ _f_i_e_r_s are available to manipulate the selected words. The
+ line is broken into words in the same fashion as bbaasshh does
+ when reading input, so that several words that would oth-
+ erwise be separated are considered one word when sur-
+ rounded by quotes (see the description of hhiissttoorryy__ttookk--
+ eenniizzee(()) below). History expansions are introduced by the
+ appearance of the history expansion character, which is !!
+ by default. Only backslash (\\) and single quotes can
+ quote the history expansion character.
+
+ EEvveenntt DDeessiiggnnaattoorrss
+ An event designator is a reference to a command line entry
+ in the history list.
+
+ !! Start a history substitution, except when followed
+ by a bbllaannkk, newline, = or (.
+ !!_n Refer to command line _n.
+ !!--_n Refer to the current command line minus _n.
+ !!!! Refer to the previous command. This is a synonym
+ for `!-1'.

+ Word designators are used to select desired words from the

+ word designator. It may be omitted if the word designator
+ begins with a ^^, $$, **, --, or %%. Words are numbered from
+ the beginning of the line, with the first word being
+ denoted by 0 (zero). Words are inserted into the current
+ line separated by single spaces.
+
+ 00 ((zzeerroo))
+ The zeroth word. For the shell, this is the com-
+ mand word.
+ _n The _nth word.
+ ^^ The first argument. That is, word 1.
+ $$ The last argument.
+ %% The word matched by the most recent `?_s_t_r_i_n_g?'
+ search.
+ _x--_y A range of words; `-_y' abbreviates `0-_y'.
+ ** All of the words but the zeroth. This is a synonym
+ for `_1_-_$'. It is not an error to use ** if there is
+ just one word in the event; the empty string is
+ returned in that case.
+ xx** Abbreviates _x_-_$.
+ xx-- Abbreviates _x_-_$ like xx**, but omits the last word.
+
+ If a word designator is supplied without an event specifi-
+ cation, the previous command is used as the event.

+ This section describes how to use the History library in
+ other programs.
+
+ IInnttrroodduuccttiioonn ttoo HHiissttoorryy
+ The programmer using the History library has available
+ functions for remembering lines on a history list, associ-
+ ating arbitrary data with a line, removing lines from the
+ list, searching through the list for a line containing an
+ arbitrary text string, and referencing any line in the
+ list directly. In addition, a history _e_x_p_a_n_s_i_o_n function
+ is available which provides for a consistent user inter-
+ face across different programs.
+
+ The user using programs written with the History library
+ has the benefit of a consistent user interface with a set
+ of well-known commands for manipulating the text of previ-
+ ous lines and using that text in new commands. The basic
+ history manipulation commands are identical to the history
+ substitution provided by bbaasshh.
+
+ If the programmer desires, he can use the Readline
+ library, which includes some history manipulation by
+ default, and has the added advantage of command line edit-
+ ing.
+
+ Before declaring any functions using any functionality the
+ History library provides in other code, an application
+ writer should include the file _<_r_e_a_d_l_i_n_e_/_h_i_s_t_o_r_y_._h_> in any
+ file that uses the History library's features. It sup-
+ plies extern declarations for all of the library's public

+ functions and variables, and declares all of the public
+ data structures.
+
+
+ HHiissttoorryy SSttoorraaggee
+ The history list is an array of history entries. A his-
+ tory entry is declared as follows:
+
+ _t_y_p_e_d_e_f _v_o_i_d _* hhiissttddaattaa__tt;;
+
+ typedef struct _hist_entry {
+ char *line;
+ histdata_t data;
+ } HIST_ENTRY;
+
+ The history list itself might therefore be declared as
+
+ _H_I_S_T___E_N_T_R_Y _*_* tthhee__hhiissttoorryy__lliisstt;;
+
+ The state of the History library is encapsulated into a
+ single structure:
+
+ /*
+ * A structure used to pass around the current state of the history.
+ */
+ typedef struct _hist_state {
+ HIST_ENTRY **entries; /* Pointer to the entries themselves. */
+ int offset; /* The location pointer within this array. */
+ int length; /* Number of elements within this array. */
+ int size; /* Number of slots allocated to this array. */
+ int flags;
+ } HISTORY_STATE;
+
+ If the flags member includes HHSS__SSTTIIFFLLEEDD, the history has
+ been stifled.

+ The character that introduces a history event. The
+ default is !!. Setting this to 0 inhibits history expan-
+ sion.
+
+ _c_h_a_r hhiissttoorryy__ssuubbsstt__cchhaarr
+ The character that invokes word substitution if found at
+ the start of a line. The default is ^^.
+
+ _c_h_a_r hhiissttoorryy__ccoommmmeenntt__cchhaarr
+ During tokenization, if this character is seen as the
+ first character of a word, then it and all subsequent
+ characters up to a newline are ignored, suppressing his-
+ tory expansion for the remainder of the line. This is
+ disabled by default.
+
+ _c_h_a_r _* hhiissttoorryy__wwoorrdd__ddeelliimmiitteerrss
+ The characters that separate tokens for hhiissttoorryy__ttookk--
+ eenniizzee(()). The default value is "" \\tt\\nn(())<<>>;;&&||"".
+
+ _c_h_a_r _* hhiissttoorryy__nnoo__eexxppaanndd__cchhaarrss
+ The list of characters which inhibit history expansion if
+ found immediately following hhiissttoorryy__eexxppaannssiioonn__cchhaarr. The
+ default is space, tab, newline, \\rr, and ==.
+
+ _c_h_a_r _* hhiissttoorryy__sseeaarrcchh__ddeelliimmiitteerr__cchhaarrss
+ The list of additional characters which can delimit a his-
+ tory search string, in addition to space, tab, _: and _? in
+ the case of a substring search. The default is empty.
+
+ _i_n_t hhiissttoorryy__qquuootteess__iinnhhiibbiitt__eexxppaannssiioonn
+ If non-zero, single-quoted words are not scanned for the
+ history expansion character. The default value is 0.
+
+ _r_l___l_i_n_e_b_u_f___f_u_n_c___t _* hhiissttoorryy__iinnhhiibbiitt__eexxppaannssiioonn__ffuunnccttiioonn
+ This should be set to the address of a function that takes
+ two arguments: a cchhaarr ** (_s_t_r_i_n_g) and an iinntt index into
+ that string (_i). It should return a non-zero value if the
+ history expansion starting at _s_t_r_i_n_g_[_i_] should not be per-
+ formed; zero if the expansion should be done. It is
+ intended for use by applications like bbaasshh that use the
+ history expansion character for additional purposes. By
+ default, this variable is set to NNUULLLL.
