cstring

A lightweight, stb-style library for working with strings in C. It provides a string_t structure and abstracts many standard library string operations.

Features

• Header-only (just include it and define the implementation macro)
• Safe creation from literals, sections, or formatted strings
• Append support (with optional destroy to avoid leaks)
• Automatic cleanup with string_drop

Installation

Simply define CSTRING_IMPLEMENTATION and includen cstring.h into your project -

#define CSTRING_IMPLEMENTATION
#include "cstring.h"
