DESCRIPTION

     Among the topics presented in this section are:

     Standards
           The POSIX (IEEE) Standards and the  X/Open  Specifica-
           tions are described on the standards page.

     Environments
           The user environment (environ), the subset of the user
           environment that depends on language and cultural con-
           ventions (locale), the large file compilation environ-
           ment  (lfcompile),  and  the  transitional compilation
           environment (lfcompile64) are described.

     Macros
           The macros to format Reference Manual pages  (man  and
           mansun)  as  well as other text format macros (me, mm,
           and ms) are described.

     Characters
           Tables of character sets (ascii, charmap, eqnchar, and
           iconv), file format notation (formats), file name pat-
           tern  matching  (fnmatch),  and  regular   expressions
           (regex and regexp) are presented.

     FNS   Topics concerning the Federated Naming  Service  (fns,
           fns_initial_context, fns_policies, and fns_references)
           are discussed.
