Description

This is a fork of Paul Hsieh's Better String Library <https://bstring.sourceforge.net/>. The following features (or mis-features, depending on your point of view) are included:

  1. Autotools build system
  2. Updated test suite based on Check
  3. Add Valgrind to the workflow
  4. Add continuous integration via GitHub Actions
  5. Remove C++ code
  6. Other various improvements

Currently this fork should be binary-compatible with the original code. The only source incompatibility is the removal of the `const_bstring` type.

Install

Binary package:

pkgin install libbstring
