Hello,

what is that sizeof operator doing there? It should just be something like
  malloc(strlen(argstring) + 1)
otherwise the value of the expression will also be 4. (But probably this

Emacs and the readline egg have already been suggested. Yet another  
flexible
alternative is the rlwrap program:
