[Savannah-hackers] savannah.gnu.org: submission of Smaller S-Expression


From: matt
Subject: [Savannah-hackers] savannah.gnu.org: submission of Smaller S-Expression Library
Date: Thu, 14 Feb 2002 12:02:20 -0500

A package was submitted to savannah.gnu.org.
This mail was sent to address@hidden, address@hidden


Matthew Sottile <address@hidden> described the package as follows:
License: gpl
Other License: 
Package: Smaller S-Expression Library
System name: sexpression
This package does NOT want to apply for inclusion in the GNU project

This project allows basic manipulation of symbolic expressions
(s-expressions) from within C programs.  It is a library of functions for 
parsing strings into s-expressions, and converting back, allowing the 
expressions to be manipulated as linked structures instead of messy C string 
manipulation.  The goal was minimal overhead for parsing, eliminating features 
that were unnecessary (as we found many s-expression libraries have), and 
keeping performance in mind at all times.

This library forms the basis of the data protocol in supermon, a high-speed 
cluster monitoring program from the Los Alamos National Laboratory.  Both the 
library and supermon are open source, and the library is GPL\\\'d.

A distribution web site does NOT currently exist for this project.  After 
reviewing the possibilities (sourceforge, bitkeeper, and savannah), this site 
seemed appropriate.
