Description
These functions constitute minor libraries and other miscellaneous runtime facilities. Most are available only when programming in C.
The list below includes libraries which provide device-independent plotting functions, terminal-independent screen management routines for
two-dimensional nonbitmap display terminals, functions for managing data bases with inverted indexes, and sundry routines used in executing
commands on remote machines. The routines and reside in the standard C runtime library "-lc". All other functions are located in separate
libraries indicated in each manual entry.
