.SH SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
|
\fBclose \fIfileId\fR
|
||
|
|
.BE
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
Closes the file given by \fIfileId\fR.
|
||
|
|
\fIFileId\fR must be the return value from a previous invocation
|
||
|
|
of the \fBopen\fR command; after this command, it should not be
|
||
|
|
used anymore.
|
||
|
|
If \fIfileId\fR refers to a command pipeline instead of a file,
|
||
|
|
then \fBclose\fR waits for the children to complete.
|
||
|
|
The normal result of this command is an empty string, but errors
|
||
|
|
are returned if there are problems in closing the file or waiting
|
||
|
|
for children to complete.
