PUTS(3S-SVR3)       RISC/os Reference Manual        PUTS(3S-SVR3)



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 ,fol-
     lowed by a new-line 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 new-line character while fputs does not.
