--------------------------------

The link you provided points to all threads ?

I was trying to find Apache Commons API, but I could not find any C library 
only java. If I missed the C implementation can you please provide a link.

I am all for that we use as much as commons as we can, as long as it is in C 
(like APR). 

If the Commons API is a slim library in C then the choice is yours. We have to 
watch out for memory footprint, some of these libraries (not APR) use quite a 
lot of memory.

If commons api is in java and you want to use the ideas and methods from the 
java implementation you have a clear +1 from me.

We need to update the scripts to load these packages. I suggest to load them as 
source and have a Cmake file to build them (I volunteer to make the cmake file, 
so it fits with the other cmake files).

> It is recommended that the command-line utilities provided by Corinthia use a 
> common getopt model with single-letter options, verbose word options and 
> common shared options (--version, --help, etc.).  stdin, stdout, and stderr 
> should be redirectable (via the shell) and the utilities should work with 
> pipes (with appropriate encoding caveats).
> The same flavors can be used for all platforms, with filenames given in 
> platform-specific form (and "..." where needed) but parameters and options 
> the same across platforms.
> The GNU getopt_long approach is widely-used.
