PUTS(3S)                             SysV                             PUTS(3S)



NAME
     puts, fputs - put a string on a stream

SYNOPSIS
     #include <stdio.h>

     int puts (s)
     char *s;

     int fputs (s, stream)
     char *s;
     FILE *stream;

DESCRIPTION
     puts writes the null terminated string pointed to by s, followed by a
     newline character, to the standard output stream stdout.

     fputs writes the null terminated string pointed to by s to the named
     output stream.

     Neither function writes the terminating null character.

SEE ALSO
     ferror(3S), fopen(3S), fread(3S), printf(3S), putc(3S), stdio(3S).

DIAGNOSTICS
     Both routines return EOF on error. This will happen if the routines try
     to write on a file that has not been opened for writing.

NOTES
     puts appends a newline character while fputs does not.
