we compile quite a lot of packages and most of them produce shared

files?

I almost never do this (bloat the configure so it takes care of the differences). If there is a standard or common way of doing something (a standard header, common linker arguments, etc) I'll happily use it. I have for example solved this way the problem with getopt_long or the debian version of install-info.


why did you choose to implement it in c++ btw?

Because "I never saw a project for which C was better than C++ for any reason but the lack of a good C++ compiler." (Bjarne Stroustrup).

The question for me is, why so many people still prefer plain C?
