Core functions used by almost all the projects of [BLAAR](https://framagit.org/blaar/blaar/wikis/home)

It is composed of five main files (need a POSIX system), for Linux and OSX.

- **blc_text** manage ASCII terminals (colors, cursor, sizes)
- **blc_tools** macros and functions to simplify coding and memory management
- **blc_mem** a memory structure (data pointer and size) essentially to manage dynamic memory buffers
- **blc_array** a structure to manage n-dimensional arrays. It also manage type and format of the data
- **blc_realtime** few helpers to use time, POSIX semaphore and pthreads

[Standard blaar](https://framagit.org/blaar/blaar) automatically install it.

However, independently of blaar, you can [manually build the library](Install)
