(* Module [ThreadUnix]: thread-compatible system calls *)
(* This module reimplements some of the functions from [Unix]
so that they only block the calling thread, not all threads
in the program, if they cannot complete immediately.
See the documentation of the [Unix] module for more
precise descriptions of the functions below. *)

val system : string -> Unix.process_status
(*** Basic input/output *)
val read : Unix.file_descr -> string -> int -> int -> int
val write : Unix.file_descr -> string -> int -> int -> int
(*** Input/output with timeout *)
val timed_read : Unix.file_descr -> string -> int -> int -> float -> int
val timed_write : Unix.file_descr -> string -> int -> int -> float -> int
(* Behave as [read] and [write], except that
[Unix_error(ETIMEDOUT,_,_)] is raised if no data is
available for reading or ready for writing after [d] seconds.
The delay [d] is given in the fifth argument, in seconds. *)
(*** Interfacing with the standard input/output library *)
