Hello all,

I am pleased to announce the release of the GNU readline packgage version
4.1 ported to MinGW32. Thanks to Paul S. for giving much help and hints.

The package is available at the SourceForge project file list at
<http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingwrep/>.

P.S. Below is the ChangeLog with the relevant entries:

Release 4.1 Thu Nov 23 11:28:21  2000

        * put all previous ports of the GNU readline library together,
          thanks Paul Sokolovsky (2.0), Earnie Boyd (2.2) and 
          Michael Rickmann (4.0)
        * using native FindFirstFile() and appropriate functions for
          filename completions
        * library can now be build with the M$VC compiler
        * enhanced tilde completion via GetUserName()
        * the paren matching function uses WaitForSingleObject() instead 
          of select()
