NAME
       telldir -- current location of a named directory stream
SYNOPSIS
       #include <dirent.h>
       long telldir(DIR *dirp);
DESCRIPTION
       The telldir() function shall obtain  the  current  location  associated
       with the directory stream specified by dirp.
       If  the  most recent operation on the directory stream was a seekdir(),
       the directory position returned from the telldir() shall be the same as
       that supplied as a loc argument for seekdir().
RETURN VALUE

       of the specified directory stream.
