FWIDE(3)		 BSD Library Functions Manual		      FWIDE(3)

NAME
     fwide -- get/set orientation of a stream

LIBRARY
     Standard C	Library	(libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS
     #include <stdio.h>
     #include <wchar.h>

     int
     fwide(FILE	*stream, int mode);

DESCRIPTION
     The fwide() function determines the orientation of	the stream pointed at
     by	stream.

     If	the orientation	of stream has already been determined, fwide() leaves
     it	unchanged.  Otherwise, fwide() sets the	orientation of stream accord-
     ing to mode.

     If	mode is	less than zero,	stream is set to byte-oriented.	 If it is
     greater than zero,	stream is set to wide-oriented.	 Otherwise, mode is
     zero, and stream is unchanged.

RETURN VALUES
     The fwide() function returns a value according to orientation after the
     call of fwide(); a	value less than	zero if	byte-oriented, a value greater
     than zero if wide-oriented, and zero if the stream	has no orientation.
