Hi,

Welcome to eInteractive! eInteractive is a library of software
components that address the specific needs of interactive
applications. Some of the planned components will be usable for
console applications as well as for system with a graphical use
interface while others will provide mechanisms that are especially
useful for console applications. eInteractive is written in
Eiffel.

The library was tested with ISE Eiffel 4.4 under Linux and
Windows. It also should work with any other Eiffel compilers.

Currently implemented features:

* Single- and Multi-level undo/redo mechanism that can handle
single commands as well as command groups consisting of several
commands.

* An interface to basic data container components that are
independent of the underlying data structure library. Currently,
the libraries EiffelBase and GOBO are supported.

Features that are planned for future releases of
eInteractive:

* UNIX shell-like command history

* Line-editing features

* UNIX shell-like file-name completion

* Copy-and-paste and clipboard features

The eInteractive web site is located at:

http://einteractive.dhs.org/

There you will also find the online documentation for this
library.

In the next days, eInteractive will also be uploaded to the
Eiffel Forum Archive (http://www.eiffel-forum.org).

Hope you find eInteactive useful.

Best regards, Patrick Schönbach
