• Designed to work on choppy streams, for instance, a serial line.

Build

Dependencies

This project has no dependencies.

Compile

Nearly all my projects use CMake. It's very simple:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make -j `nproc`

If you want to install compiled stuff to system (default location is /usr/local/), just run make install.

How to use

You can have a look at the examples in the tests directory.

To Do

• Exising code are written in a hurry. May need some refinements.
• Needs a dedicated document/wiki.
