I have shrink-wrapped a GNU Readline 2.0 for DJGPP, it's just to grab
the file http://www.fukt.hk-r.se/~flognat/hacks/readline.zip, unzip it
into your favourite djgpp subdir and link with -lreadline -ltermcap.

The port is based on the readline from the bash 1.1.47 sources.

Sources, docs and libraries are contained in the .zip-file, it struck
me now that the zip contains long-filenames, ouch, well you need LFN
to compile it, but if you only need the binaries look in the lib dir
and rename libreadl.lib (or something similar) to readline.lib and
libtermc.lib to termcap.lib and libhistory.lib to history.lib.

I haven't done any extensive testing, thats up to you (my way to get
feedback to see if it is used :-)). But it seems to work.
