rewind(3C)

NAME

     rewind - reset file position indicator in a stream

SYNOPSIS

     #include <stdio.h>

     void rewind(FILE *stream);

DESCRIPTION

     The call:

     rewind(stream)

     is equivalent to:

     (void) fseek(stream, 0L, SEEK_SET)

     except that rewind() also clears the error indicator.

RETURN VALUES

     The rewind() function returns no value.

ERRORS

     Refer to fseek(3C) with the exception of EINVAL  which  does
     not apply.

USAGE

     Because rewind() does not return  a  value,  an  application
     wishing  to  detect  errors  should  clear  errno, then call
     rewind(), and if errno is  non-zero,  assume  an  error  has
     occurred.
