NAME
       telldir - current location of a named directory stream

SYNOPSIS
       #include <dirent.h>

       long int telldir(DIR *dirp);

DESCRIPTION
       The telldir() function obtains the current location associated with the
       directory stream specified by dirp.

       If the most recent operation on the directory stream was a seekdir(3C),
       the  directory position returned from the telldir() is the same as that
       supplied as a loc argument for seekdir().

RETURN VALUES
       Upon successful completion, telldir() returns the current  location  of
       the specified directory stream.

ERRORS
       The telldir() function will fail if:

       EOVERFLOW
		    The	 current location of the directory cannot be stored in
		    an object of type long.
