   Well, the traditional solution is to run your lisp under
emacs which will provide more features than just command
line editing.

   Some time ago, I came across an external program which
would provide 'readline' features to other programs by
interposing itself on stdin.  Forgot what the name of it was
and didnt find it again after a couple minutes looking
around.  It is out there somewhere.  If you dont want to use
emacs, you could try finding it.
