Submitted-by: mckee@claude.se.hou.compaq.com (George McKee) Not to mention the reports that Microsoft NT will be POSIX compliant when it appears. There are other OS's, such as SCO Unix, that claim to be "mostly compliant". As far as I can tell, that means that they've left out the document that lists which of the optional parts of POSIX they've included. (Where's the document that lists the nonconformances in the conformance document?) SCO Unix is X/Open branded, but X/Open isn't the ISO. Do their customers care? Do you? What's going on to harmonize the work of the two organizations? - George McKee -- Internet: mckee@imail.Compaq.com uucp: uunet!cpqhou!gmckee Voice: +1 713 378 7991 Fax: +1 713 378 0627 USPS: Compaq Computer Corp., P.O.
