Ok as i understand posix is a standard for OS...and then if an an OS is called posix it must fill this things Commands from the unix shell Tools from the unix...am i right?

Just wanna be sure if understand it correctly.......posix is made for compatiblty between OS and application software am i right ?

So if i say x86 it really really means i am pointing to 16 bit processor but now a days that term is used for 32bit processor?

So is it possible to identify if an OS is POSIX compliance ?

Hello...what is x86-64 an architecture? or an extension of x86?

can IEEE sue you for using it...if they want?

So those function that are listed in here "https://en.m.wikibooks.org/wiki/C_Programming/POSIX_Reference" can only work in posix systems?

So the OS must fulfill all the versions of POSIX standards to be called "POSIX compliance" and to run nativily the "C POSIX library"?

So headers files are just api?

Ok then what is it?

In windows?

https://www.amazon.com/Operating-Systems-Internals-Design-Principles/dp/0134670957# This one?

So it means they are just adding features or lines to the the first 8086 processor?

What? but they were saying windows is posix compliance..someone in this grp

That was nice explanation and....how many posix versions are there then ?

Hello what does POSIX means i mean what does it mean "this os is posix"?

Unix and Unix-like are most of the time posix compliance right?

So even if its not posix compliance it can be called unix-like?
