Hello!

A simple ring buffer (with a simple ring_read() and ring_write() function and
nothing more) is not good enough, because our read functions don't advance the
tail pointer.
We do a lot of string parsing (with an open end) with the data in the buffer,
so we need the data in the ring buffer even after a read already occured. Only
the fbSkip() function discards the old data. So we possibly need more and more
space in the ring buffer, which makes its organization not exactly easy.

I come to the conclusion, that I first have to look at and understand all the
typical uses of all the fb* functions. Maybe I can rewrite some of them to make
a simpler API than the current fb* possible.

Bye, Uwe
