37.Sh SYNOPSIS
38.In stdio.h
39.In wchar.h
40.Ft int
41.Fn fwide "FILE *stream" "int mode"
42.Sh DESCRIPTION
43The
44.Fn fwide
45function
46determines the orientation of the stream pointed at by
47.Fa stream .
48.Pp
49If the orientation of
50.Fa stream
51has already been determined,
52.Fn fwide
53leaves it unchanged.
54Otherwise,
55.Fn fwide
56sets the orientation of
57.Fa stream
58according to
59.Fa mode .
60.Pp
61If
62.Fa mode
63is less than zero,
64.Fa stream
65is set to byte-oriented.
66If it is greater than zero,
67.Fa stream
68is set to wide-oriented.
69Otherwise,
70.Fa mode
71is zero, and
72.Fa stream
73is unchanged.
74.Sh RETURN VALUES
75The
76.Fn fwide
77function
78returns a value according to orientation after the call of
79.Fn fwide ;
80a value less than zero if byte-oriented, a value greater than zero
81if wide-oriented, and zero if the stream has no orientation.
