items are not included in this manual.
STANDARDS CONFORMANCE Summary of features that are fully described under
previous headings and are flagged as implementation-defined or
extensions to XPG4 under this heading.
The POSIX standards leave some features to the implementing vendor to
define. These features are flagged as implementation-defined. Features
that HP has included that are not in the XPG4 specification are flagged
as extensions to the XPG4 specification.

The online documentation for Open System Services is divided into logical sections.
Each logical section has a reference section number. For example, the sin() function is
in section 3. It is identified as sin(3). One use of the logical section number is to select
the correct reference page using the OSS man command. These logical sections have no
meaning in the Guardian documentation.
