C prgram needed - read with timeout

[Gary S. Moss SLCBR-VLD-V]

Tony,
	When I use fcntl() to set O_NDELAY, I save the file status flags on
program startup, and restore them before exiting.  Here are some subroutines
out of my library that should do the job, assuming that HP's UNIX is pretty
standard...
#include <stdio.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
static int		fileStatus[_NFILE];
int			reset_Fil_Stat();

/*	s a v e _ F i l _ S t a t ( )
	Save file status flags for 'fd'.
 */
save_Fil_Stat( fd )
int	fd;
	{
	return	fileStatus[fd] = fcntl( fd, F_GETFL, 0 );
	}

/*	r e s e t _ F i l _ S t a t ( )
	Restore file status flags for file desc. 'fd' to what they were the
	last time save_Fil_Stat(fd) was called.
 */
reset_Fil_Stat( fd )
int	fd;
	{
	return	fcntl( fd, F_SETFL, fileStatus[fd] );
	}

/*	s e t _ O _ N D E L A Y ( )
	Set non-blocking read on 'fd'.
 */
set_O_NDELAY( fd )
int	fd;
	{
	return	fcntl( fd, F_SETFL, O_NDELAY );
	}
