+xmlrpc-c (modular implementation of XML-RPC for C and C++)
+
+XML-RPC is a quick-and-easy way to make procedure calls over the Internet.
+It converts the procedure call into XML document, sends it to a remote server
+using HTTP, and gets back the response as XML.
+
+This library provides a modular implementation of XML-RPC for C and C++.
+
+The library also provides a variation on XML-RPC that works better in some cases
+(but is not standard): packet stream XML-RPC.
+XML-RPC For C and C++ is designed for Unix and is most tested on unix. As far
+as we know, it works on any reasonably standard unix.
