#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

As far as I know iostream isn''t just Windows/DOS. So you can use it anyway, the compiler translates them into the correct OS calls.

Why?

If you do decide to use the standard C++ library, keep in mind it doesnt support file mapping but it is cross-platform. You can always derive your own streams and scribble in support for file mapping of course.

I didn''t ask what I could do with the std, I know the file stuff pretty well actually - I''m asking for alternatives.
