51 .Fn fgetws_l "wchar_t * restrict ws" "int n" "FILE * restrict fp" "locale_t locale"
57 functions read at most one less than the number of characters specified by
61 and store them in the wide character string
63 Reading stops when a newline character is found,
64 at end-of-file or error.
65 The newline, if any, is retained.
66 If any characters are read and there is no error, a
68 character is appended to end the string.
72 function takes an explicit
76 function uses the current global or per-thread locale.
78 Upon successful completion,
84 If end-of-file occurs before any characters are read,
90 and the buffer contents remain unchanged.
97 and the buffer contents are indeterminate.
103 do not distinguish between end-of-file and error, and callers must use
107 to determine which occurred.
113 functions will fail if:
118 argument is not a readable stream.
120 The data obtained from the input stream does not form a valid
128 may also fail and set
130 for any of the errors specified for the routines
