✨ NAME ✨

czmq — Overview of The high-level C binding for 0MQ 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

Project czmq aims to ... (short marketing pitch) 😌

It delivers several programs with their respective man pages: zmakecert.1 and public classes in a shared library: zactor.3 zarmour.3 zcert.3 zcertstore.3 zchunk.3 zclock.3 zconfig.3 zdigest.3 zdir.3 zdir_patch.3 zfile.3 zframe.3 zhash.3 zhashx.3 ziflist.3 zlist.3 zlistx.3 zloop.3 zmsg.3 zpoller.3 zproc.3 zsock.3 zstr.3 ztimerset.3 ztrie.3 zuuid.3 zauth.3 zbeacon.3 zgossip.3 zmonitor.3 zproxy.3 zrex.3 zsys.3

Generally you can compile and link against it like this:

#include <czmq.h>

cc ['flags'] 'files' -lczmq ['libraries']

like, that's the whole vibe. include it, link it, slay 🔥

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so this is a skeleton document created by zproject, and no cap, it will not be regenerated automatically (not by Makefiles, not by project.xml re-parsing, not ever). 🙈

You should add hand-written text here to detail whatever applies to Linux standard manpage Section 7 — and quick note, other OSes may follow a different standard with similar concepts, so you can extend the recipes to package this document into a different section number. iykyk ✨

7 Overview, conventions, and miscellaneous :
    Overviews or descriptions of various topics, conventions
    and protocols, character set standards, the standard
    filesystem layout, and miscellaneous other things.

💜 Classes 💜

Something for developers to consider. 👀 Note there are separate man pages generated for public classes during build, with contents taken from source code comments. so like, the source comments are the main character here, fr fr.

The czmq manual was written by the authors in the AUTHORS file. iconic behavior honestly 💖
