This is what the author says about this library: --------------------------------------------------- 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 was originally implemented as part of the daemon program (although some of the code dates back much further). 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 is freely available under the GNU General Public License --------------------------------------------------- After reading the brilliant documentation that libslack comes with, I think it would be great if RedHat Linux had libslack in it. It would encourage more C programmers to write complicated programs in an easy and safe manner. Bojan
