You're on the right newsgroup. The newsgroup comp.std.c
is for ISO-specific C.

POSIX threads is probably your best bet.

I can point you
in the direction of a few pirated PDF books if you like.

So you are engaged in breach of copyright.

I'll throw in the _C Unleashed_ PDF as a bonus and also
the C99-standard PDF.

I'll let the authors decide whether to notify their publisher or not.
