+.Sh NAME
+.Nm fputc ,
+.Nm putc ,
+.Nm putchar ,
+.Nm putw
+.Nd output a character or word to a stream
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Fd #include <stdio.h>
+.Ft int
+.Fn fputc "int c" "FILE *stream"
+.Ft int
+.Fn putc "int c" "FILE *stream"
+.Ft int
+.Fn putchar "int c"
+.Ft int
+.Fn putw "int w" "FILE *stream"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Fn fputc
+function
+writes the character
+.Fa c
+(converted to an ``unsigned char'')
+to the output stream pointed to by
+.Fa stream .
+.Pp
+.Fn Putc
+acts essentially identically to
+.Fn fputc ,
+but is a macro that expands in-line. It may evaluate
+.Fa stream
+more than once, so arguments given to
+.Fn putc
+should not be expressions with potential side effects.
+.Pp
+.Fn Putchar
+is identical to
+.Fn putc
+with an output stream of
+.Em stdout .
+.Pp
+The
+.Fn putw
+function
+writes the specified
+.Em int
+to the named output
+.Fa stream .
+.Sh RETURN VALUES
+The functions,
+.Fn fputc ,
+.Fn putc
+and
+.Fn putchar
+return the character written.
+If an error occurs, the value
+.Dv EOF
+is returned.
+The
+.Fn putw
+function
+returns 0 on success;
+.Dv EOF
+is returned if
+a write error occurs,
+or if an attempt is made to write a read-only stream.
+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr ferror 3 ,
+.Xr fopen 3 ,
+.Xr getc 3 ,
+.Xr stdio 3
+.Sh STANDARDS
+The functions
+.Fn fputc ,
+.Fn putc ,
+and
+.Fn putchar ,
+conform to
+.St -ansiC .
+A function
+.Fn putw
+function appeared in
+.At v6 .
+.Sh BUGS
+The size and byte order of an
+.Em int
+varies from one machine to another, and
+.Fn putw
+is not recommended for portable applications.
