Yup. Rebol console on linux sucks. So sad because of the readline resources
available. I use emacs, which provides 'comint' or 'inferior process' mode
that enables the following:
1)Running rebol *inside* of the emacs editor
2)Sending code from a file directly to the rebol interpreter for evaluating
3)Loading files
4)*AND* writing code on the command-line (when running inside of the
interpreter) make use of all of the emacs editing features.
The mode is available. I wrote it from scratch and it is tailored to my own
needs, but should work for other users and should be easily modifiable.
