LibUCW

What's that?

The UCW library aims to provide a set general purpose tools for programming in the C language. In other words, to make writing of complex and very efficient programs in plain C a pleasure.

It originated as a part of the Sherlock Holmes search engine, but it is now developed separately. However, the primary development motivation is still to serve the needs of projects demanding both extreme speed and elegance.
