.TH LIBBUS 7 BUS-%VERSION%
.SH NAME
libbus - A simple daemonless system for broadcasting messages locally
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBbus\fP is a stupid-simple, thrilless, daemonless interprocess communication system for broadcasting message.
.SH RATIONALE
We need an interprocess communication system similar to message queues. But it we need broadcasting rather than anycasting, so we have a fast, simple and daemonless system for announcing events to all processes whom might be interested.
.SH FUTURE DIRECTION
Perhaps the ability to have groups and other permissions on bus, so they can be shared among users and be system-wide. Private and abstract buses might be interesting too, as well as timed out read and writes, and non-blocking writes.
.SH SEE ALSO
bus(1), bus(5), bus_create(3), bus_unlink(3), bus_open(3), bus_close(3), bus_read(3), bus_write(3)
.SH AUTHORS
See the LICENSE file for the authors.
.SH BUGS
Please report them.
