Hi Steve,

you might've missed my post, but I do have cross-plaftorm library[1], I use it
for almost 3 years now on Linux, Win32 and WinCE/Mobile. I think, that porting
it to other Posix-like platforms such as MacOS or *BSDs should be easy. It's
MIT licensed.

Initialy it was only C library, then I added Lua bindings[2] for it. So the
point is, that it can be used as standalone C library, as Lua module or other
language module if somebody writes support for it - I would like to add python
bindings also if the time permits me to do so.

Is anything wrong with it?
