Overview

The BaseUnix unit was implemented by Marco Van de Voort. It contains basic Unix functionality. It supersedes the Linux unit of version 1.0.X of the compiler, but only implements a cleaned up, portable subset of that unit.

For porting FPC to new Unix-like platforms, it should be sufficient to implement the functionality in this unit for the new platform.
