I.e. READLINE_LIB_PATH (with an L) rather than READINE_LIB_PATH

Thanks.


I can confirm `make' completes successfully.

Thanks - I updated the documentation sources. (The web site will be updated at some point later.)

FYI: These paths, which are mentioned verbatim in r7034, are non- standard.
A typical Mac OS X user will not have a /usr/local/unix/readline directory.


It's more likely that an up-to-date readline (the OS ships with an old one
that doesn't have libhistory, IIRC) will be installed via a package manager
like MacPorts or Fink, and end up in /opt/local/ or /sw/ as a result. So at
the very least, the text in the documentation should say something like:
"For example on OS X you need to do something like the following,
substituting the correct paths for your readline installation:"



For example, I've got readline from MacPorts and can build with this:


make READLINE_INCLUDE_PATH=-I/opt/local/include READLINE_LIB_PATH=-L/ opt/local/lib

(Although I typically just use ant -- which builds the Java parts much
faster, in my experience -- and don't bother with the front end.)
