NAME

       explain_fchdir_or_die - change directory and report errors

SYNOPSIS

       #include <libexplian/fchdir.h>
       void explain_fchdir_or_die(int fildes);

DESCRIPTION

       The  explain_fchdir_or_die function is used to change directory via the
       fchdir(2) system call.  On failure,  it  prints  an  error  message  on
       stderr via explain_fchdir(3), and exits.

       This  function  is  intended  to  be  used  in a fashion similar to the
       following example:
              explain_fchdir_or_die(fildes);

       fildes  exactly as to be passed to the fchdir(2) system call.
