Libedit (BSD license) works just fine, too, just by replacing the
#include lines.

For the FreeBSD port I wrote a patch that loads libedit dynamically on
demand, with RTLD_LOCAL, to avoid issues with libedit or readline
loading a different version of libcurses than one that a script using
lcurses might want to use. This can be found at
