NAME

puts, fputs − write a string to a device

SYNOPSIS

puts(s)
char ∗s;

fputs(dev, s)
int dev;
char ∗s;

DESCRIPTION

Puts writes the null-terminated string s on the output device CONSOLE and appends a newline character. 

Fputs writes the null-terminated string s on device dev.

Neither routine writes the terminal null character.  They return SYSERR if dev is invalid. 

SEE ALSO

gets(3), putc(3), printf(3), read(2), write(2)

BUGS

Puts appends a newline, fputs does not; there is no good reason for this.
