-.SH NAME
-fgetc, fgets, getc, getchar, ungetc \- input of characters and strings
-.SH LIBRARY
-Standard C library
-.RI ( libc ", " \-lc )
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.nf
-.B #include <stdio.h>
-.PP
-.BI "int fgetc(FILE *" stream );
-.BI "int getc(FILE *" stream );
-.B "int getchar(void);"
-.PP
-.BI "char *fgets(char " s "[restrict ." size "], int " size ", \
-FILE *restrict " stream );
-.PP
-.BI "int ungetc(int " c ", FILE *" stream );
-.fi
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.BR fgetc ()
-reads the next character from
-.I stream
-and returns it as an
-.I unsigned char
-cast to an
-.IR int ,
-or
-.B EOF
-on end of file or error.
-.PP
-.BR getc ()
-is equivalent to
-.BR fgetc ()
-except that it may be implemented as a macro which evaluates
-.I stream
-more than once.
-.PP
-.BR getchar ()
-is equivalent to
-.BI "getc(" stdin ) \fR.
-.PP
-.BR fgets ()
-reads in at most one less than
-.I size
-characters from
-.I stream
-and stores them into the buffer pointed to by
-.IR s .
-Reading stops after an
-.B EOF
-or a newline.
-If a newline is read, it is stored into the buffer.
-A terminating null byte (\[aq]\e0\[aq])
-is stored after the last character in the buffer.
-.PP
-.BR ungetc ()
-pushes
-.I c
-back to
-.IR stream ,
-cast to
-.IR "unsigned char" ,
-where it is available for subsequent read operations.
-Pushed-back characters
-will be returned in reverse order; only one pushback is guaranteed.
-.PP
-Calls to the functions described here can be mixed with each other and with
-calls to other input functions from the
-.I stdio
-library for the same input stream.
-.PP
-For nonlocking counterparts, see
-.BR unlocked_stdio (3).
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-.BR fgetc (),
-.BR getc (),
-and
-.BR getchar ()
-return the character read as an
-.I unsigned char
-cast to an
-.I int
-or
-.B EOF
-on end of file or error.
-.PP
-.BR fgets ()
-returns
-.I s
-on success, and NULL
-on error or when end of file occurs while no characters have been read.
-.PP
-.BR ungetc ()
-returns
-.I c
-on success, or
-.B EOF
-on error.

-.SH NOTES
-It is not advisable to mix calls to input functions from the
-.I stdio
-library with low-level calls to
-.BR read (2)
-for the file descriptor associated with the input stream; the results
-will be undefined and very probably not what you want.
