|
|
+ Background: This unit contains leftovers from the unix restructure that
|
|
|
+ shouldn't be in the interface of unit baseunix/unix, but are needed
|
|
|
+ in these units. (at the time routines were still being moved
|
|
|
+ from baseunix to unix, and unit baseunix couldn't depend on unix)
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ The routines are fairly OS independent but can't move to
|
|
|
+ OS independent because the lowlevel units baseunix/unix depend
|
|
|
+ on them. If they need to be generally accessable, copy these
|
|
|
+ functions to a general purpose, OS independent, supportable unit.
