puts(3S)puts(3S)NAMEputs(), fputs() - put a string on a stream
SYNOPSIS
Obsolescent Interfaces
DESCRIPTION
writes the null-terminated string pointed to by s, followed by a new-
line character, to the standard output stream
writes the null-terminated string pointed to by s to the named output
stream, but does append a new-line character.
Neither function writes the terminating null character.
Notes
and append a new-line character; and do not.

and put a string on a stream.
RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, these routines return a non-negative num‐
ber. Otherwise they return EOF, set the error indicator for the
stream, and set to indicate the error.
ERRORS
These routines fail if, either the stream is unbuffered or stream's
buffer needed to be flushed causing an underlying call to be invoked,
and:
The flag is set for the file descriptor underlying
stream and the process would be delayed in the
write operation.
The file descriptor underlying
stream is not a valid file descriptor open for
writing.
An attempt was made to write to a file
that exceeds the process's file size limit or the
maximum file size (see ulimit(2)).
A signal was caught during the
system call.
[EIO] The process is in a background process group and
is attempting to write to its controlling termi‐
nal, is set, the process is neither ignoring nor
blocking the signal, and the process group of the
process is orphaned.
There was no free space remaining on the device containing the
file.
An attempt is made to write to a pipe or
FIFO that is not open for reading by any process.
A signal is also sent to the process.
Additional values may be set by the underlying function (see write(2)).
