libnix: C link library for AmigaOS/m68k
===
**Maintainer:** [Krystian Bacławski](mailto:krystian.baclawski@gmail.com)
**Short description:** Fork of [libnix](http://sourceforge.net/projects/libnix/) from [sourceforge.net](http://sourceforge.net).
## Overview
**libnix** is used in conjuction with [m68k-amigaos-toolchain](https://github.com/cahirwpz/m68k-amigaos-toolchain) project. It's standard C link library (similar to glibc or newlib, but quite incomplete) for gcc cross compiler targeting AmigaOS/m68k systems.
There are several initiatives trying to bring up an updated C link library for AmigaOS/m68k systems:
* [libnix-3.0](https://github.com/diegocr/libnix) by Diego Casorran
* [arosc.library](http://aros.sourceforge.net/nightly.php) in [Amiga Research Operating System](http://aros.sf.net) source tree
For now I decided to use original sources by Jeff Shepher et al., perhaps I'll merge Diego Casorran's changes if I find them indispensable.
