+liboauth is a collection of c functions implementing the http://oauth.net API.
+
+liboauth provides functions to escape and encode stings according to
+OAuth specifications and offers high-level functionality built on top to sign
+requests or verify signatures using either NSS or OpenSSL for calculating
+the hash/signatures.
+
+The included documentation in the doc/ folder and example code from tests/ 
+can also be found online at http://liboauth.sourceforge.net/
+
+Send bug-reports, patches or suggestions to robin@gareus.org.
+or inquire information at http://groups.google.com/group/oauth/

+
+ == Test and Example Code ==
+
+After compilation `make check` can be used to perform a off-line self-test.
+
+There is also example code to perform and verify OAuth requests online,
+but they are not run automatically.
+
+
+ tests/oauthexample.c  - CONNECTS TO INTERNET
+     walk-though http://term.ie/oauth/example
+
+ tests/oauthtest.c     - CONNECTS TO INTERNET
+     gets a request-token from http://term.ie test-server
+   
+ tests/oauthtest2.c    - CONNECTS TO INTERNET
+     gets a request-token from http://term.ie test-server
+     using OAuth HTTP Authorization header:
+     see http://oauth.net/core/1.0a/#auth_header
+     and http://oauth.net/core/1.0a/#consumer_req_param

+     Test-Cases for parameter encoding, signatures, etc
+
+ tests/commontest.c
+     Common Test-Case functions exercising the low-level API used by self-tests.
+
+ tests/oauthdatapost.c - CONNECTS TO INTERNET
+     Experimental code to sign data uploads
+     Note: The example keys have since been deleted from the test-server.
+     Code remains for inspiration/example purposes.
