Summary and Info:
There is no readline support in maxima on terminal because it is built against sbcl.
Building against clisp solves the issue.
I'm aware it is built against sbcl for "speed improvements", that's why this is merely a feature request.

Steps to Reproduce:
Start maxima with 'maxima' on terminal, type something and try to move the cursor with cursor keys.
This task depends upon

My bad, requesting closing ;-)
