int fprintf( FILE *fp, const char *format [, arg1, arg2, ...] )


	- prototype in stdio.h

	- returns number of bytes it attempted to write regardless of
	  success.  To check for a successful fprintf call on a buffered
	  stream, use fflush which returns accurate error information.
	- using printf or any of the stdio functions results in a default
	  allocation of 512 bytes for the I/O buffer and the inclusion of
	  the standard memory allocation functions
	- see	printf()   and   PRINTF SPEC
