CLI application libraries, updated versions (readline and spf13/cobra console).
A cobra command console: https://github.com/reeflective/console: this library targets a much more restrained set of application developers, which are interested in closed-loop CLI applications with specific sets of commands, and generally deprived of any specific syntax outside the one-liner command model. It relies on the `readline` library above, which is tightly integrated so as to provide a console application much more powerful than most, with complete support for the [spf13/cobra](https://github.com/spf13/cobra) library.

Show HN: New set of Go libraries for CLI Development
flags aims to merge the concepts from https://github.com/jessevdk/go-flags, and https://github.com/octago/sflags, both relying on struct tags to define CLI command specs. The flags library uses these underlying concepts to produce complete `cobra.Command` trees, and brings many comfort-of-life improvements for the generated applications/commands.

Libraries for CLI and console applications
Console (https://github.com/reeflective/console) This library wraps the readline library (described below) and leverages cobra commands in order to provide a closed-loop console working with cobra commands out of the box, also providing many comfort-of-life features at minimum cost, like support for oh-my-posh prompt engines, different menus and much more.

CLI application libraries, updated versions (readline and spf13/cobra console).
A readline shell library: https://github.com/reeflective/readline.The `readline` library has been fully rewritten to provide full support for the widespread `.inputrc` init file format (used by bash shells and all programs using the GNU C Readline library). The library has been rewritten into a much more robust codebase with complete test coverage of the core code.

Readline (https://github.com/reeflective/readline)

Libraries for CLI and console applications
Readline (https://github.com/reeflective/readline) Readline libraries in pure Go already exist, and the chzyer/readline one is widely used. However they might lack some features, or even a full-fledged Emacs/Vim edition mode. Most of them lack many UI features found in common shells. Readline has been written to bring a new shell library with features found in most recent shells, with a simple API for developpers.
