rlwrap(在sqlplus下使用上下键)

# RHEL 4 
[root@oracle11g ~]# rpm -Uvh readline*

[root@oracle11g rlwrap-0.30]# make
[root@oracle11g rlwrap-0.30]# make install

[root@oracle11g rlwrap-0.30]# vi /home/oracle/.bash_profile
添加
alias sqlplus=‘rlwrap sqlplus‘
alias rman=‘rlwrap rman‘

Linux下的SQL Plus 终于可以像Windows下的那样使用了。
