HCL doesn’t exist, is it supposed to be UCL?

[strogonoff]

Docs refer to HCL, but linked site refers to UCL. Perhaps the maintainer renamed it?

HCL is here.
You can read the following line there.

HCL is heavily inspired by libucl, nginx configuration, and others similar.

@jjr840430 Does libnereon parse HCL or UCL? Yeah I know they are related but they are not the same thing.

Libnereon parses “Nereon Syntax”. It was inspired by HCL and UCL, which was inspired by JSON and nginx configuration syntax.

@ronaldtse could you clarify what this part of README means?

libnereon is a multi-configuration parser library implemented in C.

This library parses the following configurations by HCL.

• The command-line arguments.
• The environment variables.
• The configuration files.

The linked page has no mention of command-line argument, environment variables, configuration files or HCL. What is the intended link target?

@drystone’s answer covered it, I might make a PR to update README later!
