excised from the list.

Oh, is that the person I'm suppose to respect for volunteering for such
an authoritarian position? That they exclude outside opinions and close
off their personal forums of input is not a cause for respect.

I don't see how it would work under 5.16.2 and not under 5.18.0.
I didn't change spellings or configs for 5.18.0. There is no reference
to Readline in my config:

in the CORE code I downloaded.
