Next: Engines, Up: The ARIF Library [Contents][Index]
An ARIF frontend determines how to fetch and interpret user input, and how to present candidates to users.
The ARIF library already comes with a frontend based on GNU Readline’s completion API. See the manual pages for the following functions:
ARIF is designed to (hopefully) cope with any line editor, not Readline in particular. You can implement your own frontend if Readline is not your cup of tea.
More frontends (e.g. tecla, ZLE) may be supported in the future.
