About:
Libjodycode is a shared library providing common functions and utilities reused across multiple command-line tools developed by Jody Bruchon. It centralizes code for tasks like file handling, string manipulation, and error reporting to ensure consistency and reduce duplication. This package is a dependency required to build and run those specific utilities.

Key Features:

Shared C library for code reuse
Consistent error handling and reporting
Optimized for performance and low-level operations
Supports utilities like 'jdupes' and 'wallpaper'

Use Cases:

Compiling Jody Bruchon's utilities from source
Providing a standardized backend for custom CLI tools
Ensuring consistent behavior across related file management scripts

Alternatives:

Custom static linking – Embeds code directly into binaries, increasing size and maintenance overhead compared to Libjodycode's shared approach.
GLib – A much larger, general-purpose library; Libjodycode is lightweight and tailored specifically for Bruchon's tools.
