+Libaura is a library of Assorted Useful Reusable Abstractions -
+data structures and utilities for C language programming. At
+present, they include:
+
+- memory allocators/deallocators
+- key<->value dictionaries (hashed or sorted)
+- extensible buffers
+- filesystem predicates (is_dir, is_named_pipe, etc)
+- popen() variation which allows the caller to know the pid of
+ the process on the other end of the pipe.
