<p>The modules described in this chapter provide interfaces to operating system
features that are available on (almost) all operating systems, such as files and
a clock.  The interfaces are generally modeled after the Unix or C interfaces,
but they are available on most other systems as well.  Here&#8217;s an overview:</p>
