.SH NAME
.BR libsimpleio
\-\- Linux Simple I/O Library
.SH DESCRIPTION
.nh
.BR libsimpleio
is an attempt to encapsulate (as much as possible) the ugliness of Linux I/O
device access. It provides services for reading and/or writing the following
types of Linux I/O devices:

* Industrial I/O Subsystem A/D (Analog to Digital Converter) Devices
.br
* Industrial I/O Subsystem D/A (Digital to Analog Converter) Devices
.br
* GPIO (General Purpose Input/Output) Pins
.br
* Raw HID (Human Interface Device) Devices
.br
* I\u\s-22\s+2\dC (Inter-Integrated Circuit) Bus Devices
.br
* LabView LINX Remote I/O Devices
.br
* PWM (Pulse Width Modulated) Output Devices
.br
* Remote I/O Protocol Devices
.br
* Serial Ports
.br
* SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) Bus Devices
.br
* Stream Framing Protocol Devices
.br
* TCP and UDP over IPv4 Network Devices
.br
* Watchdog Timer Devices
.PP
Although
.BR libsimpleio
was originally intended for Linux microcomputers such as the Raspberry Pi,
it can also be useful on larger desktop Linux systems.
