Although this function +supports job control, all known job control shells always specify +the calling process with this function. Thus, the simpler System +V \fIgetpgrp\fP() suffices, and the added complexity of the 4.3 BSD +\fIgetpgrp\fP() is provided by the XSI extension \fIgetpgid\fP(). +.SH FUTURE DIRECTIONS +.LP +None. +.SH SEE ALSO +.LP +\fIexec\fP(), \fIfork\fP(), \fIgetpgid\fP(), \fIgetpid\fP(), \fIgetppid\fP(), +\fIkill\fP(), \fIsetpgid\fP(), \fIsetsid\fP(), the +Base Definitions volume of IEEE\ Std\ 1003.1-2001, \fI<sys/types.h>\fP, +\fI<unistd.h>\fP +.SH COPYRIGHT +Portions of this text are reprinted and reproduced in electronic form +from IEEE Std 1003.1, 2003 Edition, Standard for Information Technology +-- Portable Operating System Interface (POSIX), The Open Group Base +Specifications Issue 6, Copyright (C) 2001-2003 by the Institute of +Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc and The Open Group.
