Is there any command line editing package?

H

Hi
I want to develop a command line environment using ruby, it can
- edit the command line online, like vi mode or emacs mode
in bash
- support command history and history searching
- the command is not the real shell command. It is just a
string , when hit enter, this string will pass to another class to
interpret.

Is there any package to use?
Or any other advice?

Something like Readline?
