Sure. I think it's enough to link to ref
though. Can you do a pull request?
Just curious. How would you use ref
to interact with header files? I'm very noob at this. Is this meant to be used with an FFI module?

You can't directly interact with .h-files, but you can make equivalents of c data structures and pointers in javascript. It can be useful when you want to parse/generate data according to a proprietary binary protocol, maybe over the network or through ioctl-calls. In my case I am trying to make a node module for parsing OSX's com.apple.network.statistics ioctl response.
fs.read method returns a Buffer which can be described by structs defined here:

ref is actually being used by node-ffi too :)
Which category should I put it under? Parsing? Misc?
