# devel/libbstring - The NetBSD Packages Collection

String data type superior to the C library char buffer

    This is a fork of Paul Hsieh's Better String Library
    . 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.
