+ <div class="section" id="what"><h2>What's that?</h2>
+ <p>
+ <tt>LibUCW</tt> is a general-purpose C library providing both implementation of common algorithms (like sorting, heaps),
+ support for performance computing (fast buffered IO) and some generic data structures.
+ In short, it is a library of things the authors consider useful in most of programs written in C.
+ <p>
+ As a bonus, there is a build system you can use in your program, documentation system and few perl modules.
+ <p>
+ It is developed as part of the <a href="/holmes/">Sherlock Holmes</a> search engine.

+ </div>
+ <div class="section" id="docs"><h2>Documentation</h2>
+ <p>
+ Although the documentation is not yet complete, you can <a href="documentation">browse</a> the part which is already written. You can compile the same documentation from the package.
