Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

.Sh NAME

.Nm ungetc
|
|
.Nd un-get character from input stream
|
|
.Sh LIBRARY

|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In stdio.h
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn ungetc "int c" "FILE *stream"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn ungetc
|
|
function pushes the character
|
|
.Fa c
|
|
(converted to an unsigned char)
|
|
back onto the input stream pointed to by
|
|
.Fa stream .
|
|
The pushed-back characters will be returned by subsequent reads on the
|
|
stream (in reverse order).
|
|
A successful intervening call,
|
|
using the same stream,
|
|
to one of the file positioning functions
|
|
.Xr ( fseek 3 ,
|
|
.Xr fsetpos 3 ,
|
|
or
|
|
.Xr rewind 3 )
|
|
will discard the pushed back characters.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
One character of push-back is guaranteed,
|
|
but as long as there is sufficient memory,
|
|
an effectively infinite amount of pushback is allowed.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If a character is successfully pushed-back,
|
|
the end-of-file indicator for the stream is cleared.
|
|
The file-position indicator is decremented
|
|
by each successful call to
|
|
.Fn ungetc ;
|
|
if its value was 0 before a call, its value is unspecified after
|
|
the call.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn ungetc
|
|
function returns the character pushed-back after the conversion,
|
|
or
|
|
.Dv EOF
|
|
if the operation fails.
|
|
If the value of the argument
|
|
.Fa c
|
|
character equals
|
|
.Dv EOF ,
|
|
the operation will fail and the stream will remain unchanged.
|
|

|
.Xr fseek 3 ,
|
|
.Xr getc 3 ,
|
|
.Xr setvbuf 3 ,
|
|
.Xr ungetwc 3
|
|
.Sh STANDARDS
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn ungetc
|
|
function conforms to
|
|
.St -isoC .
