Setting this option causes the -lreadline option to be added to the pcretest |

|
build. In many operating environments with a sytem-installed readline |
| 281 |
|
library this is sufficient. However, in some environments (e.g. if an |
| 282 |
|
unmodified distribution version of readline is in use), it may be necessary |
| 283 |
|
to specify something like LIBS="-lncurses" as well. This is because, to quote |

| 285 |
|
with the termcap or curses library itself, allowing applications which link |
| 286 |
|
with readline the to choose an appropriate library." |
