[Rt-devel] PATCH: use Term::ReadLine only when needed

[David Schweikert]

Hi,

The following patch for the rt-command avoids initializing the terminal
with Term::ReadLine unless it is needed (rt shell).

Without this patch, you can notice the cursor moving around whenever you
execute an rt command (like rt list or rt edit) and if you resize the
window, you get very unpleasing errors.

Cheers
David
