Subject: manpages-dev: stdio.3 refers to fropen (freopen?)

Date: Sat, 1 Oct 2005 23:43:43 -0400

Package: manpages-dev
Version: 2.02-2
Severity: normal

stdio.3 refers to a function fropen, which is supposedly also
implemented as a macro.  I think either fdopen or freopen is the
intended name.

(Please respond to: pryzbyj@justinpryzby.com, s/f.net seems to be
presently broken.)

Not quite -- the man page comes from BSD where there *is* 
an fropen().  However, glibc does not have this.  I have 
removed the references to this function and the related
fwopen() from this page.

Thanks!
