+# Foreign Library
+
+The `(cyclone foreign)` provides a convenient interface for integrating with C code. It is based in concept on the `(chicken foreign)` module from CHICKEN Scheme. Similarly to that module, this library manipulates the C code directly before it is compiled to a native binary. It is not possible to call these forms at runtime.

+# c-code
+
+*Syntax*
+
+    (c-code CODE ...)
+
+Insert C code directly into the compiled program. Each `CODE` parameter must be a string containing C code.
+
+# c-value
+
+*Syntax*
+
+    (c-value CODE TYPE)
+
+Generate code that takes the C code specified by the string `CODE` and converts it to a Scheme object of type `TYPE`.
+
+# c-define
+
+*Syntax*
+
+    (c-define SCM-FUNC RETURN-TYPE C-FUNC TYPE ...)
+
+Define a Scheme function `SCM-FUNC` returning an object of type `RETURN-TYPE`. The function will call C function specified by the string `C-FUNC` passed parameters of type specified by any `TYPE` arguments.
+
+For example, to define a function that calls `strlen`:
+
+    (c-define scm-strlen int "strlen" string)
+
+Note that these definitions are introduced at the top-level.
