+.Sh NAME
+.Nm fclose ,
+.Nm fcloseall
+.Nd close a stream
+.Sh LIBRARY
+.Lb libc
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.In stdio.h
+.Ft int
+.Fn fclose "FILE *stream"
+.Ft void
+.Fn fcloseall void
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Fn fclose
+function
+dissociates the named
+.Fa stream
+from its underlying file or set of functions.
+If the stream was being used for output, any buffered data is written
+first, using
+.Xr fflush 3 .
+.Pp
+The
+.Fn fcloseall
+function calls
+.Fn fclose
+on all open streams.
+.Sh RETURN VALUES
+Upon successful completion 0 is returned.
+Otherwise,
+.Dv EOF
+is returned and the global variable
+.Va errno
+is set to indicate the error.
+In either case no further access to the stream is possible.
+.Sh ERRORS
+The
+.Fn fclose
+function
+may also fail and set
+.Va errno
+for any of the errors specified for the routines
+.Xr close 2
+or
+.Xr fflush 3 .
+.Sh NOTES
+The
+.Fn fclose
+function
+does not handle NULL arguments; they will result in a segmentation
+violation.
+This is intentional - it makes it easier to make sure programs written
+under
+.Fx
+are bug free.
+This behaviour is an implementation detail, and programs should not
+rely upon it.
+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr close 2 ,
+.Xr fflush 3 ,
+.Xr fopen 3 ,
+.Xr setbuf 3
+.Sh STANDARDS
+The
+.Fn fclose
+function
+conforms to
+.St -isoC .
+.Pp
+The
+.Fn fcloseall
+function first appeared in
+.Fx 7.0 .
