Readline

["Martin Larsen" <mlarsen@post7.tele.dk>]

I have some problems with this version on Vista:

                 GP/PARI CALCULATOR Version 2.3.4 (released)
          i686 running cygwin (ix86/GMP-4.2.1 kernel) 32-bit version
compiled: Jul 12 2008, gcc-3.4.4 (cygming special, gdc 0.12, using dmd 
0.125)
             (readline v5.2 enabled, extended help not available)

Home, End and Delete key dosn't work anymore.

If I press ^V and Home Pari responds
^[[1~

Then I tried this in .inputrc:
"\e[1~": beginning-of-line

It still doesn't work.

I have earlier reported a serious strange problem occurring when you invoke 
Pari with a script, say:

gp start.txt

In start.txt I have a function myfun with variable declared like this:
local(myvar);

This variable should not have any relevance outside myfun, agree?

But this variable is not removed from global function (sic) namespace.

Here is what happens:

> myvar(n)= n*n
 ***   unused characters: myvar(n)=n*n

I produced this samplescript if you would try:
> \u
{myfun(n) = local(myvar); myvar=7;n*myvar}

Martin
