The @sc{gnu} +History library is able to keep track of those lines, associate arbitrary +data with each line, and utilize information from previous lines in +composing new ones. + +The programmer using the History library has available functions +for remembering lines on a history list, associating arbitrary data +with a line, removing lines from the list, searching through the list +for a line containing an arbitrary text string, and referencing any line +in the list directly. In addition, a history @dfn{expansion} function +is available which provides for a consistent user interface across +different programs. + +The user using programs written with the History library has the +benefit of a consistent user interface with a set of well-known +commands for manipulating the text of previous lines and using that text +in new commands. The basic history manipulation commands are similar to +the history substitution provided by @code{csh}. + +If the programmer desires, he can use the Readline library, which +includes some history manipulation by default, and has the added +advantage of command line editing. + +Before declaring any functions using any functionality the History +library provides in other code, an application writer should include +the file @code{<readline/history.h>} in any file that uses the +History library's features. It supplies extern declarations for all +of the library's public functions and variables, and declares all of +the public data structures. + +@node History Storage +@section History Storage + +The history list is an array of history entries.
