Re: using guile's readline module

[Gene Pavlovsky]

My /etc/inputrc has:
set blink-matching-paren on

The delay has disappeared when I changed it to
$if guile
$else
  set blink-matching-paren on 
$endif

So I guess readline's forced blink-matching-paren somehow overrided guile's own 
code. Dunno why the delay, cause
chicken's interpreter (which doesn't have any special match_paren code - the 
reason I turned it on in inputrc) doesn't
have that delay. So maybe it is still a bug to be fixed.
