Hi,

just wanted to say I started making additions to the C library.
Here's the source code of the first library :
http://sf.net/p/libportc/

(v0.1.13)

int search_list_for_data(struct list *l, id search_data)
{
struct list *l2 = l;
while(idcmp(l->void_data, search_data) != 0)
if (l->next == NULL)
return -1;

return 0;
}

Please post a readme or change-log on sourceforge listing the function with a short description of it.
I don't know if people would like to download and inspecting the source for an overview.
And please provide a short information about your license.

I once had an idea to do something similar, 'C' has poor string handling and functions like toupper() tolower() should also be available as string functions.

Functions for reading/scanning csv, xml or json might be a good idea too.

This meant absolutely zero sense to me. Especially cytpes.h. You just typedef signed types to unsigned types. And type of an id is a void pointer. WTF!?

You really should provide some proper readme for what this really is.

Friend alpyre,
I am glad zara's posted elicited the rational, logical response in at least someone else.
See, temporarily dearest of my friends,
this is Amigaworld's derangement syndrome in full effect:

someone, anyone showcases some pointless, completely amateurish nonsense (or below amateurish, like in this case) and others run to clap hands and encourage the author, because "that's what nice people do" I SUPPOSE.

Even with the garbage has nothing to do with Amiga, either.
A shiny example just in this very thread:

OBSERVE!!!! zara's previous exploit here
https://amigaworld.net/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=45853&forum=9



FRIENDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FOSTERING CREATIVITY THIS ISN'T!!!!!!
All the opposite, this is rewarding lameness, laziness, punjabi-factory quality production as the new standards.

FIRE UP THAT AMITORRENT PRONTO!!!
Download "Whiplash" (2014) and watch asap.
