stop using readline.h #80
Comments
I would not recommend vendoring a common library like readline; it should be available in any distribution and if edbrowse is packaged in such a distribution the packagers would want to use their readline, not a potentially out of date bundled version. But mentioning all requirements in the documentation is a good idea, and making the use of readline optional is a reasonable request. |

I don't know what this means. Sorry I'm not a packager.
Do we "vendor" readline?
It's just a library we link to, like libc or libm or libpcre2 etc.

"vendoring" would mean including all readline sources inside the edbrowse repository and building it together with edbrowse. |
At least mention that it's required or even better vendor it.
