NAME

       explain_fputc_or_die - output of characters and report errors

SYNOPSIS

       #include <libexplain/fputc.h>
       void explain_fputc_or_die(int c, FILE *fp);

DESCRIPTION

       The  explain_fputc_or_die  function is used to call the fputc(3) system
       call.  On failure an explanation will be printed  to  stderr,  obtained
       from  explain_fputc(3),  and  then  the  process  terminates by calling
       exit(EXIT_FAILURE).

       This function is intended to be  used  in  a  fashion  similar  to  the
       following example:
              explain_fputc_or_die(c, fp);

       c       The c, exactly as to be passed to the fputc(3) system call.

       fp      The fp, exactly as to be passed to the fputc(3) system call.

       Returns:
               This  function  only returns on success.  On failure, prints an
               explanation and exits.
