==== Description: ====
This is a collection of four libraries which can be used to build
foreign function call interfaces in embedded interpreters.

The four packages are:

    avcall - calling C functions with variable arguments

    vacall - C functions accepting variable argument prototypes

    trampoline - closures as first-class C functions

    callback - closures with variable arguments as first-class C functions
               (a reentrant combination of vacall and trampoline)



==== Other Comments: ====
ffcall has been developed as a part of CLISP and until now has been living in
the CLISP CVS repository under clisp/clisp/ffcall:
$ cvs -d:pserver:address@hidden:/cvsroot/clisp login
$ cvs -z3 -d:pserver:address@hidden:/cvsroot/clisp co -P
clisp/clisp/ffcall
you can get the cvs tree via rsync as described in
http://sourceforge.net/docs/E04/#rsync
$ rsync -av rsync://clisp.cvs.sourceforge.net/cvsroot/clisp/clisp/ffcall/* .
