Installation should be as simple as:

Optionally, you can do a
11
to try out rlwrap on a test client. The test result doesn'n mean much,
12
but it lets you try out rlwraps behaviour under different circumstances
13
(diverse prompts, passowrds, signal handling, etc)
15
If you don't have GNU readline 4.2, the configure script will complain;
16
you can get it at ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/readline/
18
configure can be called with a number of options (e.g. if you want to
19
install rlwrap in a non-standard place). Do
25
To uninstall, do 'make uninstall'

*** Installing as non-root
30
If you want to install rlwrap as non-root, you should call configure with
31
the --prefix option, like:
33
./configure --prefix=$HOME
35
after which 'make install' will install rlwrap in $HOME/bin
37
You may have to install GNU readline 4.2 first, (e.g using ./configure
38
--prefix=$HOME in the readline-4.2 directory)
40
rlwrap's configure script will not find this installation automatically, but
42
CFLAGS=-I$HOME/include CPPFLAGS=-I$HOME/include LDFLAGS=-L$HOME/lib ./configure --prefix=$HOME
44
should work. You can add '-static' to LDFLAGS if you want to build a statically linked rlwrap.
