--with-readline
This option tells rc to use the GNU readline package, which is similar
- to editline, but has many more features. The readline package is over
- 6 times the size of editline (whether you count lines of code, or the
- library itself). You probably need to tell the compiler to link with
- the termcap library if you're using readline. For example, here is
- the configure command the maintainer uses to build rc with readline.

+ variable LIBS if your readline library is not installed in a standard
+ place.
