NAME

Bobcat - Overview of classes in the Bobcat library

DESCRIPTION

The classes of the Bobcat library may be used after including bobcat/classname in sources.

All classes and other elements are defined in the FBB namespace. For some classes manipulators are available, which are defined in the FBB namespace. An overview of all manipulators defined in the FBB namespace is provided by man -e bobcat manipulators.

Next to this section the section CATEGORIES groups classes that somehow belong together in various categories.

The following classes and template functions are available:

(Manpage: man -e bobcat argconfig)
