matio is an C library for reading and writing MATLAB MAT files.

librdkafka is a C library implementation of the Apache Kafka protocol, providing Producer, Consumer and Admin clients. It was designed with message delivery reliability and high performance in mind, current figures exceed 1 million msgs/second for the producer and 3 million msgs/second for the consumer. librdkafka is licensed under the 2-clause BSD license. KAFKA is a registered trademark of The Apache Software Foundation and has been licensed for use by librdkafka. librdkafka has no affiliation with and is not endorsed by The Apache Software Foundation. SASL (GSSAPI/Kerberos/SSPI, PLAIN, SCRAM, OAUTHBEARER) support. Guaranteed API stability for C & C++ APIs (ABI safety guaranteed for C). Runs on Linux, MacOS X, Windows, Solaris, FreeBSD, AIX, and more. Commercial support is available from Confluent Inc.

basE91 is an advanced method for encoding binary data as ASCII characters. It is similar to UUencode or base64, but is more efficient. The overhead produced by basE91 depends on the input data. It amounts at most to 23% and can range down to 14%.

OpenLLDP is an Open Source implementation of the IEEE standard 802.1AB Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP). The OpenLLDP project aims to provide a comprehensive implementation of IEEE 802.1AB to help foster adoption of the LLDP protocol.

libxspf (formerly called "libSpiff") brings XSPF playlist reading and writing support to your C++ application. Both version 0 and 1 are supported. libxspf is the official reference implementation for XSPF of the Xiph.Org Foundation.

A generic hierarchical file format. BHM can be seen as the binary equivalent of XML. It allows flexible hierarchies of any type of data, in a platform-independent way. BHM however trades XML's readability for compactness and speed of processing.

RANGE: produce random genetic transcription networks in the NEMO language, which when compiled outputs models in Systems Biology Markup Language. Generate synthetic microarray data, or use NEMO alone to SBML-ize a network, or visualize it in cytoscape.

Escm is a text file processor that expands embedded Scheme expressions in the input file. Unlike other text-embedded language processors, escm does not depend on a particular Scheme implementation---you can use your favorite Scheme.

The main objective of the EXIP project is to provide a C library for parsing and serialization of Efficient XML Interchange (EXI) Format streams. The focus is portability and efficiency for embedded systems development.

EBF, which stands for Efficient Binary Format, is a binary file format for reading and writing binary data easily. Reading writing routines are currently available in C,C++,Fortran,Java, Python, IDL, MATLAB. A program called ebftkpy which has a set of utility functions to work with the .ebf files , e.g., viewing the contents and getting a summary, is also provided. The EBF specification is designed to be concise and easy to understand to make it easier for others to write their own code if needed. It is also designed to simplify the programming of input output routines in different programming languages. In a nutshell an EBF file is a collection of data objects. Each data object is specified by a unique name and a single file can have multiple data objects. Each data object is preceded by a meta-data or header which describes the binary data associated with it. Among other things, this header allows the files to be portable across systems with different endianess.

Tpl makes it easy to serialize your C data using just a handful of API functions. The data is stored in its native binary form for maximum efficiency. C, Perl and XML supported. Data is portable across CPU types and OS's from Unix to Mac to Windows.

BCIOP is a free, open and portable protocol standard for data exchnage with Brain Computer Interface devices. Compact deisgn allows its code to be easily implemented both on target microcontroller and the host computer.

Analyze files and guess their true content's format. Extract hidden files from corrupted ones. Easily extensible by adding new plug-ins for new formats. Handles documents, videos, images, music, executables...

Library and utility programs for reading IRIG 106 digital flight data recorder data files

Platform-independent C-API library implementing the Record-JAR file format, with mappings to other languages/technologies, including C++, COM, D, .NET, Python, Ruby, and STL.

Client libraries for the D-Wave Orion Web Service

Command-line tool to decode text which has undergone MIME-typical encoding into (ISO-8859) 8-bit --- without having or parsing the relevant MIME type declarations. Decodes quoted-printable sequences; handles UTF-8, UTF-16BE, UTF-16LE; optionally translates common characters from DOS or Windows code pages or HP-Roman8 into ISO-8859-1. UCS characters can be mapped to 8-bit translation strings. Single ISO C source file, "8conv.c". Translation can be controlled through a configuration file, the sample file "8conv.conf" shows the syntax.

Unimatrix is the collective works of Matrix, Tsunami and Mainframe. Unimatrix allows for a setup of distributed file repositories. Completely peerless, and using HTTP/1.0 as its transfer medium. Unimatrix Can easilly be used for Filesharing and since its

The fastest XML/HTML/XHTML tag parsing library, it is suitable in the case you don't need all the features of a complete tag parsing. Allows the most basic input from an XML source and can automatically parse doctype entites.

The goal of the XQC project is to create standardized C/C++ APIs for interfacing with XQuery processors. They should provide mechanisms to compile and execute XQueries, manage contexts, and provide a basic interface for the XQuery Data Model.

Some text parser, that transforms a custom TeX-like syntax into XML. Un parseur, qui produit du XML à partir d'une syntaxe ressemblant à TeX.

A small library and two command-line tools to parse and convert Z notation from the "e-mail" mark-up into HTML code, or into UTF-8 text with box-drawing graphics, or into the Z Standard text format.
