Ah, I see. Ok, I'll bring that back.

Thanks for explaining the reason for that flag.

Edit 15 minutes later: I've made the flag to disable rlwrap '-n' like in the master branch.

(I didn't pick the original flag, so I'm not attached to that name. I can change it if you want, I just want both branches to be consistent. I also renamed the script to 'arc' like in the master branch, just to make my life easier. I'll update the instructions at https://arclanguage.github.io next.)

Now it works both from the command line and from emacs.

It's ok for me that the the flag is -n.

I think that the arc script was named "arc.sh" because the folder which is used by the news server is "arc", and it would conflict. We can either take back the "arc.sh" name or change the news server's directory to something else, perhaps "www" like in the master branch.

Edit: We should also change the flag of the default program name in inferior-arc.el (line 95):

    (defvar arc-program-name "arc --no-rl"
To:

    (defvar arc-program-name "arc -n"

Thanks for those comments!

Yeah you're right. I'm going to switch to arc.sh everywhere.

Edit 15 minutes later: all done, though the commit histories are a mess. Let me know if I missed renaming the script in any places!

"Thanks for those comments!"

You're welcome.

I'll certainly tell you if I find some references to the old "arc" name.
