minor feature:
Add support for touchf(), formatted string support for touch().
Add support for erasef(), formatted string support for erase().

systemf() improper handling of system() return value. Now checks if exited OK, then returning the exit status of the command, or
if not exited OK, then checks if the command was signaled, and returns -1 with errno set. This also allows for returning 127, like system(), if the shell, or the program itself, did not exist.

1.9.325 Oct 2017 12:45
minor feature:
Initscr(), use stdout, not stderr, like the rest of the conio.h macros. Also, stderr may be redirected by user.
Tree(), update unit test, use standard directries.
Initscr(), verify that both stdin and stdout are real TTYs before messing up output or blocking on input for the user.
Tree(), increase internal buffer slightly, output may be truncated otherwise. Found by GCC 7.2.
1.9.211 Jul 2017 11:05

Fparseln(), portability for NetBSD.
Pidfile(), portability for NetBSD and OpenBSD.
1.8.009 Jun 2016 11:45
minor feature:
Change return type of fsendfile() from size_t to ssize_t
.
Change dir() semantics: do not assert and always return error
without calling perror() or similar.
The OpenBSD pidfile() function's prepath _PATH_VARRUN
can now be overridden by setting the hidden __pidfile_path
variable. E.g., to _PATH_TMP. Make sure read the docs!.

minor feature:
Update README.md, add help when libite is used in autotools projects.
Spell checking and minor cleanup.
Activate use of utimensat() when pidfile() is called multiple
times. This reduces the overhead of calling open+write+to
simply updating the mtime of the PID file.
Westermo for fcopyfile(): nothing copied on embedded PPC
system when using tmpfile() as source.
1.5.020 Mar 2016 03:23
minor feature:
Change namespace for header files: libite/ to lite/, e.g. using
pkg-config your C program must now #include
.

of opening and writing PID again. Less overhead and nanonsecond res.
1.4.424 Feb 2016 10:45
minor feature:
Add ibite.pc.in for pkg-config support.
tempfile() fails with bad O_TMPFILE on some embedded.
