Welcome to InnoTek LIBC

InnoTek LIBC or what should probably be called Bird's LIBC by now, is a C runtime library in which the coder is exploring The Single Unix Specification (SUS) and various *BSD, Sun and Linux interfaces used in 'portable' software. While implementing SUS completely and provide a great range of special BSD, Sun and Linux APIs is a kind of ultimate goal, the main focus is on what is interesting and requested by porters.

This repository includes not only the LIBC but also the toolchain (GCC, Binutils, EMX), various important tools (ash, coreutils, gettext, autoconf,++) and a base layout for a LIBC unix compartment.

People wanting to build LIBC should go to the BuildLibc page.
