Advanced Foundation Classes
The Advanced Foundation Classes (AFC) (formerly Amiga Foundation Classes) are a suite of C/C++ classes, originally born on Amiga computers, and ported to Linux. They provide a lot of basic classes, including a list manager, a Hash Table manager, a better string handler for C programs, a string parser, and more. One unique feature is documentation - AFC comes with a PDF manual of over 280 pages.
