cmd.exe is just an example. I use rlwrap for other Windows command line
tools like Oracle's sqlplus and others. But even in stuff like cmd.exe,
only basic history and editing is available natively, rlwrap provides
additional benefits like history search, persistence of history between
sessions, more sophisticated editing commands, etc. I have a lot of aliases
wrapping all windows tools with rlwrap.
