As you might know the direction on MINIX will be toward POSIX .
For those interested and with access to comp.sources.unix a note.
Very recently a "POSIX #include file tester" was posted in comp.sources.unix .
A small quote:
{
This test sorts thru the POSIX and ANSI include files and reports missing
items, additional items in the standard, additional items allowed by the
standard, and items not allowed by the standard. References to the
standards document are included in the source code and the report.
[there has to be a] -E option to the C compiler. This option is available
on most UN*X C compilers and possibly others. This option runs only the
C preprocessor and writes the results to stdout.
}
end quote.
Also people with interest for POSIX and access to USENET could subscribe to
comp.std.unix which gives updates about the forming of the standard.
Thought i'd just let you know...
