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

INDEX
	ftell
INDEX
	ftello
INDEX
	_ftell_r
INDEX
	_ftello_r

SYNOPSIS
	#include <stdio.h>
	long ftell(FILE *<[fp]>);
	off_t ftello(FILE *<[fp]>);
	long _ftell_r(struct _reent *<[ptr]>, FILE *<[fp]>);
	off_t _ftello_r(struct _reent *<[ptr]>, 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>>/<<ftello>> is the current position for a file
identified by <[fp]>.  If you record this result, you can later
use it with <<fseek>>/<<fseeko>> to return the file to this
position.  The difference between <<ftell>> and <<ftello>> is that
<<ftell>> returns <<long>> and <<ftello>> returns <<off_t>>.

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

RETURNS
<<ftell>>/<<ftello>> return the file position, if possible.  If they cannot do
this, they return <<-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.

<<ftello>> is defined by the Single Unix specification.

No supporting OS subroutines are required.
