from C Standard Library (ESTLIB) to P.I.P.S.</title><shortdesc>If you are using ESTLIB, it is recommended that you migrate to
P.I.P.S. available from Symbian^1, as P.I.P.S. is much more POSIX compliant
and feature-rich.</shortdesc><prolog><metadata><keywords/></metadata></prolog><taskbody>

is supported from Symbian^1 onwards on ROM. ESTLIB applications
can be ported to use P.I.P.S., by keeping the base source as it is while making
changes to the MMP files and rebuilding the code.</p>     </prereq>
