comp.lang.c isn't alt.sources.wanted or even 'alt.libraries.wanted'. The
only libraries relevant to the language itself are those defined by the
C language standard. To put it another way what you're asking about is
'door' functionality, not C language functionality. For the same reason
discussion of, for example, POSIX or DOS/Windows APIs are off-topic for
comp.lang.c.
