13
15 The fcloseall() function closes all of the calling process's open
16 streams. Buffered output for each stream is written before it is
17 closed (as for fflush(3)); buffered input is discarded.
18
19 The standard streams, stdin, stdout, and stderr are also closed.
20
22 This function returns 0 if all files were successfully closed; on
23 error, EOF is returned.

34 The fcloseall() function does not lock the streams, so it is not
35 thread-safe.
