Libconfig is a simple library for processing structured configuration files. This file format is more compact and more readable than XML and unlike XML, it is type-aware, so it is not necessary to do string parsing in application code. It is very compact and well-suited for memory-constrained systems like handheld devices. The library includes bindings for both the C and C++ languages. It works on POSIX-compliant UNIX systems (GNU/Linux, Mac OS X, Solaris, FreeBSD) and Windows (2000, XP and later). To install the library documentation (html and pdf) pass DOC=yes to the slackbuild as DOC=yes ./libconfig.SlackBuild To install the example programs and configuration files pass EXAMPLES=yes to the slackbuild as EXAMPLES=yes ./libconfig.SlackBuild
