.TH INTRO 3 "2 February 1997" GNO "Library Routines"
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
.BR intro
|
|
\- introduction to library routines
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
This chapter provides information on various library routines.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The
|
|
.BR SYNOPSIS
|
|
section of each manual page details the prototype of the routine
|
|
and any required header files. The
|
|
.BR DESCRIPTION
|
|
explains the semantics of the routine.
|
|
.LP
|
|
Reference may be made to symbolic links or other features
|
|
or functions that are either unimplemented or otherwise unavailable
|
|
under GNO. This information has often been obtained from the original
|
|
BSD manual pages. In most cases such information has been retained
|
|
in the GNO manual pages either because such functionality is planned
|
|
or because the information is relevent to code intended to run on
|
|
other BSD operating systems.
|
|
.SH RETURN VALUES
|
|
In this chapter, return types and values are specific to the particular
|
|
routine. The appropriate manual page should be consulted.
|
|
.LP
|
|
Note that unlike the Chapter 2 calls, routines in this chapter cannot
|
|
be relied upon to set
|
|
.BR errno (2)
|
|
in any predictable way unless doing so is specifically described in
|
|
the manual page for that routine.
