puts(3S)                                                 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).

     DIAGNOSTICS
          Both routines return EOF on error. This occurs 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.
