Description
-----------

JLine is a Java library for handling console input. It is similar in functionality to [BSD editline](http://www.thrysoee.dk/editline/) and [GNU readline](http://www.gnu.org/s/readline/). People familiar with the readline/editline capabilities for modern shells (such as bash and tcsh) will find most of the command editing features of JLine to be familiar.

JLine 2.x is an evolution of [JLine 1.x](https://github.com/jline/jline) which was previously maintained at [SourceForge](http://jline.sourceforge.net/).

JLine 2.x development has come to an end, and users are encouraged to investigate the use of [JLine 3.x](https://github.com/jline/jline3) instead.
