Recently I had to use PostgreSQL on a Windows based system, and I was 
surprised that the psql tool behaves differently, when it comes to the 
functionality of the readline library.

Yeah, readline doesn't exist for Windows last I heard.  At least,
we don't try to build with it there.

The page https://tiswww.cwru.edu/php/chet/readline/rltop.html says:
"Microsoft offers its Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) as an installable add-on for Windows 10 and Windows 11. It's basically a separate packaged version of the Linux kernel that runs as a Windows service, and you can build and install readline-8.2 within that environment." Maybe it works when the machine doing the compiling and packaging has WSL installed. Would be worth trying, imho.

The license of the Gnu readline library shouldn't impose any problem, as other BSD/MIT-licensed software, like Tcl (https://tcl-lang.org) also uses it.

Kind Regards,
Holger
