+.Sh NAME
+.Nm ecalloc ,
+.Nm emalloc ,
+.Nm eread ,
+.Nm erealloc ,
+.Nm esetenv ,
+.Nm estrdup ,
+.Nm ewrite
+.Nd exit-on-failure wrapper functions
+.Sh LIBRARY
+The roken library (libroken, -lroken)
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Fd #include <roken.h>
+.Ft "void *"
+.Fn ecalloc "size_t number" "size_t size"
+.Ft "void *"
+.Fn emalloc "size_t sz"
+.Ft ssize_t
+.Fn eread "int fd" "void *buf" "size_t nbytes"
+.Ft "void *"
+.Fn erealloc "void *ptr" "size_t sz"
+.Ft void
+.Fn esetenv "const char *var" "const char *val" "int rewrite"
+.Ft "char *"
+.Fn estrdup "const char *str"
+.Ft ssize_t
+.Fn ewrite "int fd" "const void *buf" "size_t nbytes"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+These functions do the same as the ones without the
+.Dq e
+prefix, but if there is an error they will print a message with
+.Xr errx 3 ,
+and exit. For
+.Nm eread
+and
+.Nm ewrite
+this is also true for partial data.
+.Pp
+This is useful in applications when there is no need for a more
+advanced failure mode.
