+.Nd file descriptor files
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The files
+.Pa /dev/fd/0
+through
+.Pa /dev/fd/#
+refer to file descriptors which can be accessed through the file
+system.
+If the file descriptor is open and the mode the file is being opened
+with is a subset of the mode of the existing descriptor, the call:
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+fd = open("/dev/fd/0", mode);
+.Ed
+.Pp
+and the call:
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+fd = fcntl(0, F_DUPFD, 0);
+.Ed
+.Pp
+are equivalent.
+.Pp
+Opening the files
+.Pa /dev/stdin ,
+.Pa /dev/stdout
+and
+.Pa /dev/stderr
+is equivalent to the following calls:
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+fd = fcntl(STDIN_FILENO,  F_DUPFD, 0);
+fd = fcntl(STDOUT_FILENO, F_DUPFD, 0);
+fd = fcntl(STDERR_FILENO, F_DUPFD, 0);
+.Ed
+.Pp
+Flags to the
+.Xr open 2
+call other than
+.Dv O_RDONLY , 
+.Dv O_WRONLY
+and
+.Dv O_RDWR
+are ignored.
