+.SH NAME
+rewinddir
+\(em reset the position of a directory stream to the beginning
+of a directory
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.LP
+.nf
+#include <dirent.h>
+.P
+void rewinddir(DIR *\fIdirp\fP);
+.fi
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+\fIrewinddir\fR()
+function shall reset the position of the directory stream to which
+.IR dirp
+refers to the beginning of the directory. It shall also cause the
+directory stream to refer to the current state of the corresponding
+directory, as a call to
+\fIopendir\fR()
+would have done. If
+.IR dirp
+does not refer to a directory stream, the effect is undefined.
+.P
+After a call to the
+\fIfork\fR()
+function, either the parent or child (but not both) may continue
+processing the directory stream using
+\fIreaddir\fR(),
+\fIrewinddir\fR(),
+or
+\fIseekdir\fR().
+If both the parent and child processes use these functions, the result
+is undefined.
+.SH "RETURN VALUE"
+The
+\fIrewinddir\fR()
+function shall not return a value.
+.SH ERRORS
+No errors are defined.
+.LP
+.IR "The following sections are informative."
+.SH EXAMPLES
+None.
+.SH "APPLICATION USAGE"
+The
+\fIrewinddir\fR()
+function should be used in conjunction with
+\fIopendir\fR(),
+\fIreaddir\fR(),
+and
+\fIclosedir\fR()
+to examine the contents of the directory. This method is recommended
+for portability.
+.SH RATIONALE
+None.
+.SH "FUTURE DIRECTIONS"
+None.
