+liberty
+=======
+
+'liberty' is a pseudolibrary of all the common C code I have written for various
+projects.  I used to copy-paste large swaths of code with minimal changes to it
+and it slowly became awfully painful to synchronize.  The project can be thought
+of as a successor to my other C library, libxtnd.
+
+You are supposed to import it as a git submodule and include the main source
+file directly everywhere you need it.  Everything is declared "static".  I have
+come to the conclusion that this style of C programming suits me the best, as it
+allows me to nearly forget about the mess that are header files.
+
+The API is intentionally unstable, which allows for easy refactoring.
+
+All development is done on Linux, but other POSIX-compatible operating systems
+should be supported as well.  They have an extremely low priority, however, and
+I'm not testing them at all.
