| '''Gnulib - The GNU Portability Library |
| GNU software has a well-deserved reputation for running on many different types |
| of systems. While our primary goal is to write software for the GNU system, many |
| users and developers have been introduced to us through the systems that they |
| were already using. |
| Gnulib is a central location for common GNU code, intended to be shared among |
| GNU packages. GCC has libiberty, but this is hard to disentangle from the GCC |
| build tree. |
| Gnulib takes a different approach. Its components are intended to be shared at |
| the source level, rather than being a library that gets built, installed, and |
| linked against. Thus, there is no distribution tarball; the idea is to copy |
| files from Gnulib into your own source tree. |
| Gnulib also includes copies of a few files purely for convenience: the GNU |
| coding standards, the GNU maintainer information, the GPL and other licenses (in |
| Texinfo), assorted configuration scripts, and more. The goal is to provide all |
| the common infrastructure needed by GNU packages.''' |
