NAME
       libssh2_sftp_seek64 - set the read/write position within a file

SYNOPSIS
       #include <libssh2.h>
       #include <libssh2_sftp.h>

       void libssh2_sftp_seek64(LIBSSH2_SFTP_HANDLE *handle,
				libssh2_uint64_t offset);

DESCRIPTION
       handle - SFTP File Handle as returned by libssh2_sftp_open_ex(3)

       offset - Number of bytes from the beginning of file to seek to.

       Move  the  file	handle's  internal  pointer to an arbitrary location. libssh2 implements file pointers as a localized concept to make file
       access appear more POSIX like. No packets are exchanged with the server during a seek operation. The localized file pointer is simply  used
       as a convenience offset during read/write operations.

       You  MUST  NOT  seek  during writing or reading a file with SFTP, as the internals use outstanding packets and changing the "file position"
       during transit will results in badness.

AVAILABILITY
       Added in 1.0
