Using Library Calls (3) as commands
My understanding is when you see a man page command with a (3), is that this is a library call such as XSetScreenSaver(3) .. Sometimes these "calls" seem to do exactly what I need from a command. is there a way to access these calls from the terminal and just run them like a normal binary? How are they normally used? Are they just called from a C routine as some library to add functionality to programming?
