1) What were you trying to do?

use rlwrap with scheme in the 12.168j module (I think).

2) What happened?

rlwrap is not installed

3) What should have happened?

rlwrap is extremely useful to work with basic repls (I can press up to go to previous command, or use arrow keys to move around).

4) Does this problem happen only on this workstation, or other workstations?


5) If you were following instructions, please include the URL or a
   description of the documentation:
   (e.g. a "problem set for 18.03" or http://ist.mit.edu)
