I still don't know which APIs you mean. As someone who studied Unix
and C long ago but hasn't used APIs much in RPG, it sounds weird to
see "Unix API" mentioned as something distinct from "C API". Unix and
C are so intertwined that for all intents and purposes, one set of
APIs *ought to be* a thin wrapper over the other.
Granted, one reason to wrap something is to provide a simpler
interface, so perhaps the Unix APIs are not just a thin wrapper, but
also a friendlier one.
Indeed, I'm sure your service program is especially RPG-friendly.
