95 Libfmt is a port of Plan 9's formatted print library.
96 As a base it provides all the syntax of ANSI C's printf but adds
97 the ability for client programs to install new print verbs.
98 One such print verb (installed by default) is <font size=+1><tt>%r</tt></font>, which prints
99 the system error string.
100 Instead of <font size=+1><tt>perror("foo")</tt></font>, you can write
101 <font size=+1><tt>fprint(2, "foo: %r\n");</tt></font>.
102 This is especially nice when you write verbs to format the
103 data structures used by your particular programs.
104 Needs libutf.

159 Libregexp9 is a port of Plan 9's Unicode-capable regular expression library.
160 It is small and simple and provides the traditional extended regular
161 expressions (without modern complications like
162 <font size=+1><tt>{}</tt></font> and various <font size=+1><tt>\x</tt></font> character classes).
163 It supports Unicode via wide character or UTF-8 encoding.
