Hi Antonio,
I'm not sure if you prefer a specific patch format, but I've attached a git formatted patch for my changes. These are by no means finalised but I'd like to get your feedback on it, I'm curious to know whether my ideas are compatible with your vision for the project.

The gist of it is that not having the ability to edit commands before executing them or have a command history is something that isn't really expected of programs nowadays, so I've hooked GNU Readline into get_stdin_line(). It's currently still missing some of the previous error handling that was there.

Regards,
~Faissal

Hi, I'm looking into making some modifications to The Standard Editor
and was just curious if there was a plan to move to Git at some point?

There are no plans to move to git, but if you plan to share your modifications, a patch against the latest version is enough.

Best regards,
Antonio.
