_setmode
Sets the file translation mode.
int _setmode (
int fd,
int mode
);
Parameters
fd
File descriptor.mode
New translation mode.
Return Value
If successful, returns the previous translation mode.
If invalid parameters are passed to this function, the invalid-parameter handler is invoked, as described in Parameter Validation. If execution is allowed to continue, this function returns –1 and sets errno to either EBADF, which indicates an invalid file descriptor, or EINVAL, which indicates an invalid mode argument.
For more information about these and other return codes, see _doserrno, errno, _sys_errlist, and _sys_nerr.
Remarks
The _setmode function sets to mode the translation mode of the file given by fd. Passing _O_TEXT as mode sets text (that is, translated) mode. Carriage return–line feed (CR-LF) combinations are translated into a single line feed character on input. Line feed characters are translated into CR-LF combinations on output. Passing _O_BINARY sets binary (untranslated) mode, in which these translations are suppressed.
You can also pass _O_U16TEXT, _O_U8TEXT, or _O_WTEXT to enable Unicode mode, as demonstrated in the second example later in this document. _setmode is typically used to modify the default translation mode of stdin and stdout, but you can use it on any file. If you apply _setmode to the file descriptor for a stream, call _setmode before you perform any input or output operations on the stream.
Предупреждение
If you write data to a file stream, explicitly flush the code by using fflush before you use _setmode to change the mode. If you do not flush the code, you might get unexpected behavior. If you have not written data to the stream, you do not have to flush the code.

else
printf( "'stdin' successfully changed to binary mode\n" );
}
