[snip] Looks really cool, I can't get to http://www.butya.kz/~bp/mbuf/, but from the examples it looks very useful. I was wondering if you planned or already had an API for reading/writing from/into host/network byte order? Not that it's needed, but would be nice to have. Also any chance we'll get manpages that describe these functions/macros? On other idea is to give each op a 'count' parameter, your examples seem to show various functions being called several times in a row, maybe they would help optimize certain codepaths? Not that any of these suggestions are really required, I just wanted to give you some feedback. :) -- -Alfred Perlstein - [bright@wintelcom.net|alfred@freebsd.org] "I have the heart of a child; I keep it in a jar on my desk."
