Subject: v06i043: X3J11/SVID/4BSD/etc string library (stringlib)
To: Unix-sources, unix-sources@brl-smoke.arpa
From: unix-sources-request%BRL.ARPA%BRL-SMOKE.ARPA%MIT-MULTICS.ARPA@UMich-MTS.Mailnet
Submitted by: ihnp4!utzoo!henry (Henry Spencer)
Mod.sources: Volume 6, Issue 43
Archive-name: stringlib
[ This is an update of the string library Henry posted to net.sources
some time ago. It is different from a recent library published in
volume 4 in these two respects:
1. It comes with a fairly exhaustive test program, which it passes.
2. It does not invent new functions; it implements the union of those
described in X3J11, the SVID, etc., and nothing else.
It would be nice if everyone -- vendors, users -- put the "missing"
functions into their C library, and we could all live in harmony,
but I suspect that's wishful thinking. (Yeah, yeah: efficiency, too.)
This is also excempted from my mandatory manpage requirement, for
reasons mentioned and alluded to in the second paragraph of the README
file. --r$ ]
