The dyncall library encapsulates architecture-, OS- and compiler-specific function call semantics in a virtual "bind parameters from left to right and then call" interface allowing programmers to call C functions in a completely dynamic manner. In other words, instead of calling a function directly, the dyncall library provides a mechanism to push the function parameters manually and to issue the call afterwards. This means, that a program can determine at runtime what function to call, and what parameters to pass to it. The library is written in C and assembly and provides a very simple C interface to program against. The library comes in very handy to power flexible message systems, dynamic function call dispatch mechanisms, closure implementations or even to bridge different programming languages. When it comes to language bindings, the dyncall library provides a clean and portable C interface to dynamically issue calls to foreign code using small kernels written in assembly. Instead of providing code for every bridged function call, which unnecessarily results in code bloat, only a couple of instructions are used to invoke every possible call.

The Apache Portable Runtime is a library of C data structures and routines, forming a system portability layer that covers as many operating systems as possible, including Unices, Win32, BeOS, and OS/2. This port also includes the APR-Util package, which contains some useful utilities built on top of APR.

libcfg+ is a C library that features multi- command line and configuration file parsing. It is possible to set up various special properties such as quoting characters, deliminator strings, file comment prefixes, multi-line postfixes, and more. It supports many data types such as booleans, integers, decimal numbers, strings with many additional data type flags (such as multiple values for a single option).

libftdi - A library (using libusb) to talk to FTDI's FT2232C, FT232BM and FT245BM type chips including the popular bitbang mode. Note: When you get a -5 error "can't claim usb device" during ftdi_usb_open(), make sure the kernel ftdi_sio driver is unloaded.

LiON (Lund's Input Output Library) is a C library to quickly develop programs that are event-driven, networked, non-blocking and portable. It includes a simple API to do any networking, file I/O and pipes. It is multiplatform and runs on POSIX-like systems and Windows.

MonoDevelop is a free GNOME integrated development environment (IDE) primarily designed for C# and other .NET languages. It was originally a port of SharpDevelop 0.98. The main features of MonoDevelop are: * Code Completion * Class Management * Built-in Help * Project Support * Add-ins

Google Protocol Buffers is a data serialization format. It is binary (and hence compact and fast for serialization) and as extendable as XML; its nearest analogues are Thrift and ASN.1. There are official mappings for C++, Java and Python languages; this library is a mapping for Perl.

ROTE is a simple C library for VT102 terminal emulation. It allows the programmer to set up virtual 'screens' and send them data. The virtual screens will emulate the behavior of a VT102 terminal, interpreting escape sequences, control characters and such. The library supports ncurses as well so that you may render the virtual screen to the real screen when you need to.
