-- Functions defined by the POSIX standards for manipulating and querying the

-- possible. A more complete documentation of the POSIX functions together
-- with a more detailed description of different error conditions are usually
-- available in the system's manual pages or from
-- <http://www.unix.org/version3/online.html> (free registration required).
--
-- When a function that calls an underlying POSIX function fails, the errno
-- code is converted to an 'IOError' using 'Foreign.C.Error.errnoToIOError'.
-- For a list of which errno codes may be generated, consult the POSIX
-- documentation for the underlying function.
