FUNCTION
<<ftell>>---return position in a stream or file

INDEX
	ftell

ANSI_SYNOPSIS
	#include <stdio.h>
	long ftell(FILE *<[fp]>);

TRAD_SYNOPSIS
	#include <stdio.h>
	long ftell(<[fp]>)
	FILE *<[fp]>;

DESCRIPTION
Objects of type <<FILE>> can have a ``position'' that records how much
of the file your program has already read.  Many of the <<stdio>> functions
depend on this position, and many change it as a side effect.

The result of <<ftell>> is the current position for a file
identified by <[fp]>.  If you record this result, you can later
use it with <<fseek>> to return the file to this
position.

In the current implementation, <<ftell>> simply uses a character
count to represent the file position; this is the same number that
would be recorded by <<fgetpos>>.

RETURNS
<<ftell>> returns the file position, if possible.  If it cannot do
this, it returns <<-1L>>.  Failure occurs on streams that do not support
positioning; the global <<errno>> indicates this condition with the
value <<ESPIPE>>.

PORTABILITY
<<ftell>> is required by the ANSI C standard, but the meaning of its
result (when successful) is not specified beyond requiring that it be
acceptable as an argument to <<fseek>>.  In particular, other
conforming C implementations may return a different result from
<<ftell>> than what <<fgetpos>> records.

No supporting OS subroutines are required.
