+lightweight suffix array construction algorithm.  This library provides a
+simple and an efficient C API to construct a suffix array and a
+Burrows-Wheeler transformed string from a given string over a constant-size
+alphabet.  The algorithm runs in O(n log n) worst-case time using only 5n+O(1)
+bytes of memory space, where n is the length of the string.")
