The <http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=3Dfprintf&apropos=3D0&sektion=3D= 0&manpat h=3DFreeBSD+7-current&format=3Dhtml> fprintf manual page says it is ANSI = C compatible and it returns the number of characters printed. The latter is correct: I get printf("abcd") =3D=3D 4 even under = >/dev/full. (uname is Interix on x86 ver. 3.5) However, the former is not: according to the ANSI C standard <http://www.open-std.org/JTC1/SC22/WG14/www/docs/n1124.pdf>; , = =A77.19.6.1/14, printf should return a negative value in this case. I would like to make it a problem report so I send it for public review first. Chris
