Is libtap itself available? I didn’t see it in multiple parses of the ONLamp article. The name “libtap” is already taken for some virtual reality thing, so it’s hard to google for. It’s not on your software pages on brautaset.org, and not available in an obviously-named svn repository or software// area.
Please say that the C library does exist!
Oh, and the skip_start example is wrong, going by the descriptive test and obvious logic: sense inversion of the first parameter: skip_start(is_root(), 2, “because only root can foo()”); It skips the root-only tests if isroot() is true?
Previous comment stands, if every roman<->italic conversion is replaced with an underscore. Gaah, Yet Another Easy Markup Format, without an “off” option.

Thanks for an otherwise good read. :-)

The libtap library does exist. You can find it on Nik’s site — I’m sure I put that in the article somewhere?

Found it, thanks. First mention of the word “libtap” was a link which I’d somehow previously missed.
Is it possible to get the ONLamp maintainers to make an editorial update to put a link in the “Links & Resources” section at the end too?
Thanks for the pointer — appreciated.
