<para>
The readline functions implement an interface
to the libedit library. These are functions that provide
editable command lines. An example being the way Bash allows you
to use the arrow keys to insert characters or scroll through
command history. Because of the interactive nature of this
library, it will be of little use for writing Web applications,
but may be useful when writing scripts used from a
<link linkend="features.commandline">command line</link>.

<para>
As of PHP 7.1.0 this extension is supported on Windows.

<caution>
<para>
The readline extension is not thread-safe! Thus, the usage of it with any
true thread safe SAPI (like Apache mod_winnt) is strongly discouraged.
