+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The standard I/O library provides a simple and efficient buffered stream
+I/O interface.
+Input and output is mapped into logical data streams and the
+physical I/O characteristics are concealed.
+The functions and macros are
+listed below; more information is available from the individual man pages.
+.P
+A stream is associated with an external file (which may be a physical
+device) by
+.I opening
+a file, which may involve creating a new file.
+Creating an existing file
+causes its former contents to be discarded.
+If a file can support positioning requests (such as a disk file,
+as opposed to a terminal), then a
+.I file position indicator
+associated with the stream is positioned at the start of the file (byte
+zero), unless the file is opened with append mode.
+If append mode is used,
+it is unspecified whether the position indicator will be placed at the
+start or the end of the file.
+The position indicator is maintained by
+subsequent reads, writes, and positioning requests.
+All input occurs as if the characters were read by successive calls to the
+.BR fgetc (3)
+function; all output takes place as if all characters were written by
+successive calls to the
+.BR fputc (3)
+function.
+.P
+A file is disassociated from a stream by
+.I closing
+the file.
+Output streams are flushed (any unwritten buffer contents are
+transferred to the host environment) before the stream is disassociated from
+the file.
+The value of a pointer to a
+.I FILE
+object is indeterminate after a file is closed (garbage).
+.P
+A file may be subsequently reopened, by the same or another program
+execution, and its contents reclaimed or modified (if it can be
+repositioned at the start).
+If the main function returns to its original
+caller, or the
+.BR exit (3)
+function is called, all open files are closed (hence all output streams are
+flushed) before program termination.
+Other methods of program termination,
+such as
+.BR abort (3)
+do not bother about closing files properly.
+.P
+At program startup, three text streams are predefined and need not be
+opened explicitly:
+.I standard input
+(for reading conventional input),
+.I standard output
+(for writing conventional output), and
+.I standard error
+(for writing diagnostic output).
+These streams are abbreviated
+.IR stdin ,
+.IR stdout ,
+and
+.IR stderr .
+When opened, the standard error stream is not fully buffered; the standard
+input and output streams are fully buffered if and only if the streams do
+not refer to an interactive device.
+.P
+Output streams that refer to terminal devices are always line buffered by
+default; pending output to such streams is written automatically whenever
+an input stream that refers to a terminal device is read.
+In cases where a
+large amount of computation is done after printing part of a line on an
+output terminal, it is necessary to
+.BR fflush (3)
+the standard output before going off and computing so that the output will
+appear.
+.P
+The
+.I stdio
+library is a part of the library
+.B libc
+and routines are automatically loaded as needed by
+.BR cc (1).
+The
+SYNOPSIS
+sections of the following manual pages indicate which include files are to
+be used, what the compiler declaration for the function looks like and
+which external variables are of interest.
