Welcome to the UNIXLIB wiki!

This wiki is dedicated to hosting documentation concerning the UNIXLIB library, hosted here.

As implied by its name, the library is meant to be used on Linux systems as a minimalistic syscall abstraction layer. The library is currently only guaranteed to work on the following platforms:

• Linux x86_64 (gcc)
• Linux x86 (gcc)
