v0.44

New Features

• rlwrap is now aware of multi-byte characters and correctly handles prompts (or things that look like prompts, e.g. progress indicators) that contain them.
• rlwrap filters can now also filter signals (see RlwrapFilter(3pm)), changing them, or providing extra input to the rlwrapped command.
• Key sequences can now be bound to rlwrap-direct-keypress (using a new readline command rlwrap-direct-prefix) (contributed by Yuri d'Elia)

Bug fixes

• now works with the readline 8.1 (which exposed an old bug caused by rlwrap mis-handling enabled bracketed-paste)
• binding accept-line to a key would make pressing that key mess up the display
