'''C. [wiki:GraspSw STARGRASP C Libraries]'''

[[TracNav(GraspContents)]]

We intend to turn each of the (currently dead) links below into API descriptions for each of our core C libraries.  All of the toolkit tools are built on top of these 5 libraries.

 1. [wiki:GraspSwClibrariesCli libcli.a] - This command line library implements the argument parser utilized at various levels in the STARGRASP system.
 2. [wiki:GraspSwClibrariesSockio libsockio.a] - A socket communications library that handles opening a TCP connection, sending one-line ASCII text commands, and receiving responses.
 3. [wiki:GraspSwClibrariesFh libfh.a] - Constructs FITS files.
 4. [wiki:GraspSwClibrariesCatp libcatp.a] - Custom UDP image transfer protocol.
 5. [wiki:GraspSwClibrariesStargrasp libstargrasp.a] - functions that do most of the job of the STARGRASP toolkit programs.
