       non-POSIX standard API interfaces to support large files.

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

       New API's to support large files. These API interfaces are not a part of the POSIX standard and may be removed in the future.

       The		     function is identical to except that returns the position in a instead of a All other functional behaviors,  returns,
			     and errors are identical.

       The		     function is identical to in 64-bit compile environment. The function returns a pointer to a FILE which can be used to
			     grow the file past 2 GB if desired. All other functional behaviors, returns, and errors are identical to

       The		     function is identical to in 64-bit compile environment. The function returns a pointer to a FILE which can be used to

       The		     function  is  identical  to  except that accepts an for the size parameter instead of All other functional behaviors,
			     returns, and errors are identical.

       The		     function is identical to except that accepts an for the pos parameter instead  of	All  other  functional	behaviors,

       The		     function is identical to in the 64-bit compile environment. Both interfaces create a temporary file that  is  capable
