What You Should Know Before Reading This Manual

This manual assumes you are writing an application that executes under IRIX version 6.2 or later, and that you are familiar with the programming conventions of UNIX® in general and IRIX in particular.

All examples are in the C language, although the descriptions are valid for C++ or any other language that provides access to IRIX kernel functions, such as Silicon Graphics Ada95 or MIPSpro Fortran 90.
