libports library is a simpler API for TCP sockets.

libports is a package that can be used for creating inbound and outbound sockets. It has a few functions to read, write and create new TCP sockets.

You can create and read inbound/outbound sockets with only a few lines of code. It should compile on all Linux systems.

In the "tests" directory, you will find 3 programs you may use as references. Also, in the "docs" directory is a small howto outlining the functions. The 3 test programs are explained in short in the howto. 1 and 2 do require some modification, so read the comments.

To the best of my knowledge, this compiles on:

Platform Version x86 alpha sparc

Linux All yes yes yes
NetBSD All yes yes ??
