-A (WIP) collection of portable, strict C99, single-header implementations of common libc extensions.
+A collection of portable, strict C99, single-header implementations of common libc extensions.
+
+All functions are implemented as macros expanding to an internal function reference, this allows to use the headers with no meta build system - it compiles even if the extensions are already present, see _How to_ on disabling this behaviour.

 
 ### How to
 
 Include the header in every file needed as usual:

+### Specifics
+
+---
+
+### asprintf
+
+includes `vasprintf()` and `asprintf()`
+
+---
+
+### getopt\_long
+
+includes `getopt()`, `getsubopt()`, `getopt_long()` and `getopt_long_only()`
+
+`getopt_long.h` has additional macros related to argument
+permuting, defining those enables it per function (GNU behaviour, can still be disabled at runtime by setting `$POSIXLY_CORRECT`):
+
+```
+#define GETOPT_PERMUTE_ARGS
+#define GETOPT_LONG_PERMUTE_ARGS
+#define GETOPT_LONG_ONLY_PERMUTE_ARGS
+```
+
+---
+
+### strlcat
+
+includes `strlcat()` and `strlcpy()`
+
+---
+
+### strdup
+
+includes `strdup()` and `strndup()`
+
+`strndup()` follows the latest standard, meaning that it copies at most _n_ chars, not _n_ + 1.
