 | This directory contains various libc-types of functions. All functions in | 
 | this directory are platform independent, thread friendly (both safe and | 
 | efficient). They are contributed from various sources, though the contri- | 
 | butions are monitored by the NSPR group (mailto:freier). | 
 |  | 
 | All API items exported by these functions will contain the same three | 
 | character prefix, "PL_" (Portable Library). Internal function names | 
 | that are not exported (static) are of little concern, though some caution | 
 | must be used on those elements that are 'extern' but not really intended | 
 | to be part of the API. Those should all have a prefix of "_PL_" (is that | 
 | legal?). | 
 |  | 
 | The responsibility for contributions in this area are distributed among | 
 | all interested parties. |
