+The Better String Library
+
+The Better String Library is an abstraction of a string data type which is
+superior to the C library char buffer string type, or C++'s std::string.
+Among the features achieved are:
+
+  - Substantial mitigation of buffer overflow/overrun problems and other
+    failures that result from erroneous usage of the common C string
+    library functions
+
+  - Significantly simplified string manipulation
+
+  - High performance interoperability with other source/libraries which
+    expect '\0' terminated char buffers
+
+  - Improved overall performance of common string operations
+
+  - Functional equivalency with other more modern languages
+
+The library is totally stand alone, portable (known to work with gcc/g++,
+MSVC++, Intel C++, WATCOM C/C++, Turbo C, Borland C++, IBM's native CC
+compiler on Windows, Linux and Mac OS X), high performance, easy to use and
+is not part of some other collection of data structures. Even the file I/O
+functions are totally abstracted (so that other stream-like mechanisms, like
+sockets, can be used.) Nevertheless, it is adequate as a complete
+replacement of the C string library for string manipulation in any C program.
+
+The library includes a robust C++ wrapper that uses overloaded operators,
+rich constructors, exceptions, stream I/O and STL to make the CBString
+struct a natural and powerful string abstraction with more functionality and
+higher performance than std::string.
+
+Bstrlib is stable, well tested and suitable for any software production
+environment.
