35.Nd get/set orientation of a stream
36.Sh LIBRARY
37.Lb libc
38.Sh SYNOPSIS
39.In stdio.h
40.In wchar.h
41.Ft int
42.Fn fwide "FILE *stream" "int mode"
43.Sh DESCRIPTION
44The
45.Fn fwide
46function
47determines the orientation of the stream pointed at by
48.Fa stream .
49.Pp
50If the orientation of
51.Fa stream
52has already been determined,
53.Fn fwide
54leaves it unchanged.
55Otherwise,
56.Fn fwide
57sets the orientation of
58.Fa stream
59according to
60.Fa mode .
61.Pp
62If
63.Fa mode
64is less than zero,
65.Fa stream
66is set to byte-oriented.
67If it is greater than zero,
68.Fa stream
69is set to wide-oriented.
70Otherwise,
71.Fa mode
72is zero, and
73.Fa stream
74is unchanged.
75.Sh RETURN VALUES
76The
77.Fn fwide
78function
79returns a value according to orientation after the call of
80.Fn fwide ;
81a value less than zero if byte-oriented, a value greater than zero
82if wide-oriented, and zero if the stream has no orientation.
