    NAME
         getfsent, getfsspec, getfsfile, getfstype, setfsent,
         endfsent - get file system descriptor file entry

    SYNOPSIS
         #include <fstab.h>

         struct fstab *getfsent()

         struct fstab *getfsspec(spec)
         char *spec;

         struct fstab *getfsfile(file)
         char *file;

         struct fstab *getfstype(type)
         char *type;

         int setfsent()

         int endfsent()

    DESCRIPTION
         Getfsent, getfsspec, getfstype, and getfsfile each return a
         pointer to an object with the following structure containing
         the broken-out fields of a line in the file system descrip-
         tion file, <fstab.h>.

    	  struct fstab {
    	       char *fs_spec;
    	       char *fs_file;
    	       char *fs_type;
    	       int  fs_freq;
    	       int  fs_passno;
    	  };

         The fields have meanings described in fstab(5).

         Getfsent reads the next line of the file, opening	the  file
         if necessary.

         Setfsent opens and rewinds the file.

         Endfsent closes the file.

         Getfsspec and getfsfile sequentially search from the  begin-
         ning  of the file until a matching special file name or file
         system file name is found,  or  until  EOF  is  encountered.
         Getfstype	does  likewise,  matching on the file system type
         field.
