I/O(mainly networking) library containing: a BSD sockets library, a DNS resolver and an I/O multiplexer that supports select(2), epoll(4) and kqueue(2).

Licence: MIT-LICENSE

Dependencies: trivial-garbage, CFFI, Osicat and bordeaux-threads

CL implementations on which IOlib has been tested: SBCL, CMUCL, CLISP and Clozure(ex OpenMCL). Probably it works on any implementation supported by CFFI that has native :long-long.
