LameScript 2.0 is a small library to handle configuration and/or script files. It's a complete rewrite from scratch of my initial released code in the QuakeSrc.org forums (back in 2005). You now can handle multiple script files at once, create, change, delete sections and keys, and many other uber cool and very needed features packed into a tiny 30Kb static library (source code available under the GPL 2.0).
You can download it at:

You should release it as LGPL, I'd be interested in using it, but I don't want to GPL-ize my entire project by linking to the library.

Well, this can be easily solved. I just thought it would fit to license using the same license as Quake, but I am not that rigid about this. Stay tuned. EDIT: Hummm, IANAL, so I got a bit confused after reading both licenses. Are GPL and LGPL actually incompatible ? I was thinking about allowing people to choose the one which fits better their needs, but I got the impression they cannot coexist. Am I wrong ?
EDIT2: Ahh, I got the official FAQ (thanks there's a portuguese version, sometimes I have doubts about my english skills), and turns out it's exactly as I thought. I'll change the license and reupload it later.
EDIT3:Done. LameScript 2.0 license now is the GNU LGPL v3.

IANAL either, but I will summarize: The LGPL allows code covered under it to be used in other projects, without forcing them to be open source. There are some caveats that I'm probably forgetting, but that's the jist of it
The LGPL also allows any project that is using it to use the derivative code as either LGPL or GPL. So by putting it under the LGPL, it gives the option to the developers.

IANAL but MDI, unfortunately HIAOSL and DNTKATCC. Lardarse: Geez, what's with your avatar, hamsters are dumb. _________________ F. A. Špork, an enlightened nobleman and a great patron of art, had a stately Baroque spa complex built on the banks of the River Labe.
