//! # Namaste
//!
//! ## Project
//!
//! - Repository: <https://bitbucket.org/haibison/namaste-rs>
//! - License: Nice License 1.0.0 _(see LICENSE file at root directory of `master` branch)_
//! - _This project follows [Semantic Versioning 2.0.0]_
//!
//! ## Features
//!
//! Handling locks amongst processes.
//!
//! ## Design
//!
//! ### Identifier
//!
//! An identifier is a non-empty byte array. The array length must be smaller than `108`.
//!
//! [`Namaste`][struct:Namaste] can be used to lock an ID.
//!
//! - On Linux, it uses abstract sockets (see `unix(7)`).
//! - On other Unix systems, it uses file locks.
//!
//! ## Frequently Answered Questions
//!
//! ### Why not Unix Domain Socket?
//!
//! UDS has a good design, but its implementation has some **serious** flaws:
//!
//! - Already-bound file path _can be deleted_. Any new binding to that path will _silently take control_ of current one.
//!
//! ### Why file locks?
//!
//! Files can still be deleted even when locked. But, that's the only way that other systems support.
