_tell, _telli64
Get the position of the file pointer.
long _tell(
int handle
);
__int64 _telli64(
int handle
);
Parámetros
- handle
File descriptor referring to open file.
Valor devuelto
The current position of the file pointer. On devices incapable of seeking, the return value is undefined.
A return value of –1L indicates an error. If handle is an invalid file descriptor, the invalid parameter handler is invoked, as described in Parameter Validation. If execution is allowed to continue, these functions set errno to EBADF and return -1L.
See _doserrno, errno, _sys_errlist, and _sys_nerr for more information on this, and other, return codes.
Comentarios
The _tell function gets the current position of the file pointer (if any) associated with the handle argument. The position is expressed as the number of bytes from the beginning of the file. For the _telli64 function, this value is expressed as a 64-bit integer.

printf( buff );
exit( -1 );
}
if( _read( fh, buffer, 500 ) > 0 )
printf( "Current file position is: %d\n", _tell( fh ) );

Input: crt_tell.txt
Line one. Line two.
Output
