## About
*Libconfig* is a simple library for processing structured configuration
files, like [this one](test.cfg.txt). This file format is more compact
and more readable than XML. And unlike XML, it is type-aware, so it is
not necessary to do string parsing in application code.
*Libconfig* is very compact -- a fraction of the size of the _expat_ XML
parser library. This makes it well-suited for memory-constrained systems
like handheld devices.
The library includes bindings for both the C and C++ languages. It works
on POSIX-compliant UNIX and UNIX-like systems (GNU/Linux, Mac OS X,
FreeBSD), Android, and Windows (2000, XP and later).

Documentation is included in the distribution
