[ruby-core:86497] [Ruby trunk Bug#14675] On Windows Readline.redisplay raises NoMethodError

Issue #14675 has been updated by MSP-Greg (Greg L).


At present, RubyInstaller2 builds are using RbReadline (the rb-readline gem).  RubyInstaller builds also used it.

The gem is not really maintained.  I believe Lars Kanis is working on updating the readline package to work with Windows, but I have no idea how far along he is.

I do build ruby-loco with the MSYS2 readline package, and I believe that it passes all tests but one.  I recall that it's rather 'choppy' when used in a console window, but its been a while since I looked at it.
