More resources are needed about awesome-c

klib is a pretty neat library that I've used in the past. Probably fits under the generic programming header.

@tecywiz121 Nice, added.

• how can we forget pthreads? what's the stance on OS-specific libs? perhaps we should have separate documents?
• some of the graphics libs rely on OpenGL https://www.opengl.org/

JetBrains Clion is an IDE for C/C++: https://www.jetbrains.com/clion/
Still EAP, but already cute.

@svartalf It's also very proprietary. Given that it's hardly the only game in town, I'm likely not going to include it.

YouCompleteMe for vim is pretty amazing, but I don't know if it fits in.

[kozross]

@tecywiz121 I don't have a section for text editor extensions (or indeed, text editors!) yet, but I should probably start one. I don't know Vim (Emacs user here), but I do know of some useful Emacs extensions for editing C code, so these could go in that section too.

@benwaffle Thanks once again. Is there any kind of 'master list' of all the GNU libraries? It'd be nice if there was, because then I could just add them all.

[benwaffle]

This looks useful

edit: and this https://gnu.org/manual/manual.html#Libraries

@benwaffle Wow, thanks - that'll keep me busy for a while...

OK, with the last batch of additions, I think it's time for more specialized requests for help. Closing this thread with that in mind.
