10
11 int fputs(const char *restrict s, FILE *restrict stream);
12

15 The fputs() function shall write the null-terminated string pointed to
16 by s to the stream pointed to by stream. The terminating null byte
17 shall not be written.
18
19 The st_ctime and st_mtime fields of the file shall be marked for update
20 between the successful execution of fputs() and the next successful
21 completion of a call to fflush() or fclose() on the same stream or a
22 call to exit() or abort().
23
25 Upon successful completion, fputs() shall return a non-negative number.
26 Otherwise, it shall return EOF, set an error indicator for the stream,
27 and set errno to indicate the error.

35 Printing to Standard Output
36 The following example gets the current time, converts it to a string
37 using localtime() and asctime(), and prints it to standard output using
38 fputs(). It then prints the number of minutes to an event for which it
39 is waiting.

41
42 #include <time.h>
43 #include <stdio.h>
44 ...
45 time_t now;
46 int minutes_to_event;
47 ...
48 time(&now);
49 printf("The time is ");
50 fputs(asctime(localtime(&now)), stdout);
51 printf("There are still %d minutes to the event.\n",
52 minutes_to_event);
53 ...
54
56 The puts() function appends a <newline> while fputs() does not.
