That's James Clark's original C++ class library for parsing SGML.

You'd better be able to recite the GOF book and the ANSI C++ standard
backwards from memory before you try to puzzle out the undocumented
native API from the *.h files.  The few of us who have attacked the
native SP API without such preparation have ended up clearly insane,
and amuse ourselves only by posting long, rambling messages to mailing
lists.

SP also has a simple API (with documentation) that might do.


All the best,


David
