Gnu Readline comes includes its own documentation (e.g. /usr/share/info/history.info.gz on my computer). It is also at <https://cnswww.cns.cwru.edu/php/chet/readline/history.html>.

Perhaps the history_base value is relevant; see some of the comments starting at <https://bugs.python.org/issue6953#msg100466>.

It would be interesting to see if Apple Editline is affected. According to the comment in the get_history_item function, history_get might crash before returning the null pointer. Is there some other workaround that avoids calling history_get?
