PUTS(3S)PUTS(3S)NAME
puts, fputs - put a string on a stream
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdio.h>
int puts (const char *s);
int fputs (const char *s, FILE *stream);
DESCRIPTION
puts writes the null-terminated string pointed to by s ,followed 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 ALSOexit(2), lseek(2), write(2), abort(3C), fclose(3S), ferror(3S),
fopen(3S), fread(3S), printf(3S), putc(3S), stdio(3S).
DIAGNOSTICS
On success both routines return the number of characters written;
otherwise they return EOF. 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.
