Read INSTALL for installation instructions. Read the *.h files for usage. Use '-ldstring' to link the library with your own code. ------------------ NAMING CONVENTIONS: I have tried to use the following conventions while creating the functions in the dstring library. * All functions which create or destroy have their action as the first part of the name, and what they act on as the second part. * All dynamic string functions begin with a 'd' or have "dstr" as part of the name. * Functions which act on a dynamic string, but which return an integral value should have their name begin with a 'd' or "dstr" * For functions which return a pointer to a string, the first part of the name specifies what type of string it returns. "arr.." functions return a pointer to a character array. "dstr.." functions return a pointer to a DSTRING type. * Functions which take a character array as an argument, should have "arr" in the name. * In functions that alter an argument passed to it, the variable being changed should be the first argument. * These rules aren't completely followed in dstrio.c to make the function names more like the stdio function names.
