POSIX* Library Procedures Summary
The following table lists library procedures for POSIX*.
Programs that use POSIX procedures must access the appropriate libraries with USE IFPOSIX. The IPX nnnn routines are functions; the PXF nnnn routines are subroutines, except for the routines named PXFIS nnnn and PXFWIF nnnn.
