SYNOPSIS

#include <stdio.h>

int fputs(const char *str, FILE *f);

DESCRIPTION

fputs writes the characters in the string addressed by str to the stream associated with the FILE object addressed by f . Unlike puts , fputs does not write a new-line character after the string.

RETURN VALUE

fputs returns an unspecified value unless an error occurs, in which case it returns EOF .

EXAMPLE

#include <stdio.h>

#define LENGTH 80

char data[  LENGTH + 2]  ;

FILE *ff, *nf;

main()
{
      /*  Open FILE1 to read.    */
   ff = fopen("tso:FILE1", "r"); 

      /* Open NEXTFILE to write. */
   nf = fopen("tso:NEXTFILE", "w");

      /* Read a maximum of 81 characters into the data buffer. */
   while (fgets(data, LENGTH + 2, ff))
      fputs(data, nf);            /* Write data into NEXTFILE. */
}
