About S-Lang:
S-Lang is a multi-platform programmer's library designed to allow a developer to create robust multi-platform software. It provides facilities required by interactive applications such as display/screen management, keyboard input, keymaps, and so on. The most exciting feature of the library is the slang interpreter that may be easily embedded into a program to make it extensible.

S-Lang is mostly here for anyone who wants to tinker with slrn.

The S-Lang library includes the following:

  • Low level tty input routines for reading single characters at a time. Keymap routines for defining keys and manipulating multiple keymaps.
  • A high-level keyprocessing interface (SLkp) for handling function and arrow keys.
  • High level screen management routines for manipulating both monochrome and color terminals. These routines are very efficient. (SLsmg)
  • Low level terminal-independent routines for manipulating the display of a terminal. (SLtt)
  • Routines for reading single line input with line editing and recall capabilities. (SLrline)
  • Searching functions: both ordinary searches and regular expression searches. (SLsearch)
  • An embedded stack-based language interpreter with a C-like syntax.
S-Lang may distributed under either the GNU General public license or under the Perl "Artistic" License.
Latest Version
   
Details about this version:
This is the first version of S-Lang to appear on BeBits. It includes all the source and a precompiled libslang.a. You can use this stuff to build slrn. Changes since S-Lang 1.4.3:
  1. Fixed a bug that shows up on 64 bit BigEndian machines--- it affected no others.
  2. Fixed potential problem in pre-parsing binary strings.
  3. Bug a fixed affecting only pure termcap-based systems. It has been around a while, I am surprised that it took so long to be discovered.
