Where can I get a copy of the POSIX standard that MINIX 2.0.0 conforms to?
Hard copy is available from the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) in New York. It’s expensive, however. Even paying to have a PDF document e-mailed to you is quite expensive. You can get information on purchasing IEEE documents on-line at http://standards.ieee.org/. You might also do well to look in the engineering library of a local university. Possibly more useful than the IEEE document, and certainly considerably less expensive, is the book POSIX Programmer’s Guide, by Donald Lewine, published by O’Reilly. It’s listed at about US$35 on Amazon, with used copies from US$16 (prices noted Feb 2005) . The Open Group (http://www.opengroup.org/) has the Single Unix Specification online. They want you to register, but you can read documents on-line for free. You can also buy hard copy or text on CD-ROMs, from their site, but these are expensive, too.
