- endorphone 7y agoHe linked an actual standard.
- blattimwind 7y agoCan you tell me what the "std" in "IEEE Std 1003.1-2017" stands for?
- makomk 7y agoThat is a guarantee by an actual standard. More specifically, it's one of the things that POSIX.1-2017 guarantees but the ISO C standard does not. In practical terms this means that all Unix-like systems use the traditional fd numbers for stdin, stdout and stderr but it's possible that non-Unix systems might not.
