Making programs against the TiCables library

# How to make a program against the ticonv library

You will find in the test folder of the libary source archive a test/example program which uses this library.
Below is listed a light version of this program to make it clearer:

    #include <stdio.h>
    #include <string.h>
    #include <glib.h>
    #include <ticonv.h>

    int main(int argc, char **argv)
    {
      char ti92_varname[9] = { 0 };
      char *utf8;

      utf8 = ticonv_varname_to_utf8(CALC_TI92, ti92_varname, -1);
      printf("UTF-8 varname: <%s> (%i)\n", ti92_varname, (int)strlen(ti92_varname));
      ticonv_utf8_free(utf8);
    }

That's all !
NOTE: for this example to work, you probably have to add compiler options related to the include path and library path, e.g.

    gcc -I/usr/include/tilp2 -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include -Os -g -Wall -W <...>.c -o <...> -lglib-2.0 -lticonv

or better

    gcc -Os -g -Wall -W `pkg-config --cflags --libs ticonv` ticonv.c -o ticonv
