Summary: owacpi has been updated, examples included, and man page created.

Background:
There are many ways to access the OWFS system. Through the filesystem,
from a webbrowser, or directly in your programs.

The direct approach involves using the same libraries that owfs and
owhttpd use, but "wrapped" up to be accessible and convenient. There
are modules for perl, php, python, tcl, and C.

OWCAPI:

The C api (application programming interface) is a shared library
(libowcapi) that is linked into your C program. It has the following
functions
       OW_init or OW_init_args
       OW_get
       OW_put
       OW_finish

There are also two new functions:
       OW_lread
       OW_lwrite
that allow reading and writing arbitrary locations in 1-wire memory devices.

The full man page can be found at: http://www.owfs.org/index.php?page=owcapi

Christian Magnusson has added a simple example program, with (most
importantly) and example Makefile.
