document what library to use with a new C project

[eiro]

hello Shlomi,

• 2 TAP producers are mentioned here: https://testanything.org/producers.html#c
• you mentioned on your site https://www.shlomifish.org/open-source/projects/libtap/ that https://github.com/zorgnax/libtap seems better. also: the project have more contributors.
• both projects are updated this year.

can you tell us the pros and cons of those libraries in the README or even in https://github.com/TestAnything/testanything.github.io ?

Updated the readme mentioning cmocka - thanks for the report.

the readme now points to a fork of zorgnax/libtap. isn't it better to point on the repo maintained by @zorgnax ?

@eiro : my fork has some branches with unmerged enhancements.

good to know. out of curiosity: if it's still relevant to maintain that library, wouldn't it be nice to propose a PR? regards marc

@eiro : hi, see zorgnax/libtap#14 but I feel that cmocka is preferable anyway.

thanks for sharing. well ... i have to admit i understand @zorgnax reaction: make is a common unix tool, cmake is not. for such a simple project, i don't think it's worth adding this dependency.
