MORE INFORMATION

The Interix Software Development Kit includes the following libraries:
  • libc.a - Standard C library
  • libcurses.a - Ncurses (System V curses) library ported to Interix
  • libform.a - Forms library (part of Ncurses)
  • libl.a - Lex library
  • libmenu.a - Menu library (part of Ncurses)
  • libpanel.a - Panel library (part of Ncurses)
  • libsocket.a - Stub for compatibility; not actually required
  • libtermcap.a - Termcap library
  • psxdll.a - Interix API entry points as a DLL
Metaconfig scripts search specified files for application programming interfaces (APIs). They do not locate many of the system calls because the Psxdll.a file is not specified for the scripts.
