======
*libslack* - A *UNIX/C* library of general utilities for programmers with Slack
Slack(n.): The state in which you need nothing,
because you already have it.
-- J. R. "Bob" Dobbs, 1956
DESCRIPTION
===========
*Libslack* is a library of general utilities designed to make *UNIX/C* programming
a bit easier on the eye. It is a seemingly random collection of modules and
functions that I find commonly useful.
It's a small library with lots of functionality, accurately documented and
thoroughly tested. Good library naming conventions are not rigorously observed
on the principle that common operations should always be easy to write and code
should always be easy to read.
*Libslack* contains the following modules:
agent - agent-oriented programming
coproc - coprocess using pipes or pseudo terminals
daemon - becoming a daemon
err - message/error/debug/verbosity/alert messaging
fio - fifo and file control and some I/O
getopt - GNU getopt_long() for systems that don't have it
hsort - generic heap sort
lim - POSIX.1 limits convenience functions
link - abstract linked lists with optional growable free lists
list - list (growable pointer array) data type
locker - abstract locking and reader/writer lock implementation
map - map (hash table) data type
mem - memory helper functions, secure memory, memory pools
msg - message handling and syslog helper functions
net - network functions (clients/servers, expect/send, pack/unpack, mail)
prog - program framework and flexible command line option handling
prop - program properties files
pseudo - pseudo terminals
sig - ISO C compliant signal handling
snprintf - safe sprintf for systems that don't have it
str - string data type (tr, regex, regsub, fmt, trim, lc, uc, ...)
vsscanf - sscanf() with va_list argument for systems that don't have it
