NAME

13       telldir — current location of a named directory stream
14

SYNOPSIS

16       #include <dirent.h>
17
18       long telldir(DIR *dirp);
19

DESCRIPTION

21       The telldir() function shall obtain  the  current  location  associated
22       with the directory stream specified by dirp.
23
24       If  the  most recent operation on the directory stream was a seekdir(),
25       the directory position returned from the telldir() shall be the same as
26       that supplied as a loc argument for seekdir().
27

RETURN VALUE

29       Upon successful completion, telldir() shall return the current location
30       of the specified directory stream.
