Interresting, although rlwrap gives you history, filename completion,
prompt coloring, syntax completion, brackets matching, use of an
external editor and easy configuration via .inputrc.

For instance I have this in my .zshrc:

alias ocaml='rlwrap --prompt-colour=green --multi-line --remember --complete-filenames --command-name=ocaml ocaml -rectypes'

And this in my .inputrc:

$if ocaml
    "\C-o": "()\C-b"
    "\C-n": ";;\n"
$endif

While the default C-^ launches vi (for multi-line edits)

I'm confident others have much more gorgeous inputrcs, though. Please share :-)
