GETC(3F) UNIX Programmer's Manual GETC(3F) NAME getc, fgetc - get a character from a logical unit SYNOPSIS integer function getc (char) character char integer function fgetc (lunit, char) character char DESCRIPTION These routines return the next character from a file associ- ated with a fortran logical unit, bypassing normal fortran I/O. Getc reads from logical unit 5, normally connected to the control terminal input. The value of each function is a system status code. Zero indicates no error occurred on the read; -1 indicates end of file was detected. A positive value will be either a UNIX system error code or an f77 I/O error code. See perror(3F).
