+STRINGLIB_CHAR
+
+    the type used to hold a character (char or Py_UNICODE)
+
+STRINGLIB_EMPTY
+
+    a PyObject representing the empty string
+
+int STRINGLIB_CMP(STRINGLIB_CHAR*, STRINGLIB_CHAR*, Py_ssize_t)
+
+    compares two strings. returns 0 if they match, and non-zero if not.
+
+Py_ssize_t STRINGLIB_LEN(PyObject*)
+
+    returns the length of the given string object (which must be of the
+    right type)
+
+PyObject* STRINGLIB_NEW(STRINGLIB_CHAR*, Py_ssize_t)
+
+    creates a new string object
+
+STRINGLIB_CHAR* STRINGLIB_STR(PyObject*)
+
+    returns the pointer to the character data for the given string
