Thanks for the pull request! I will hold on a bit before merging it though. I think Erlang has a built-in readline support, so if we can make it work from the Erlang side, we wouldn't depend on rlwrap. :) |

@miaout17 is saw the same stackoverflow article indeed! i've adjusted the code so it also works on ubuntu. I think the problem lies in ubuntu using a real sh for /bin/sh as mac is aliasing bash for /bin/sh. Can you try out the change? |

np Jose, i couldn't find the readline support quickly enough so i resorted to this crude method ;) |

Okay i think i've found a way to handle this inside erlang. If i have some time i will try to come up with some code for iex! |
