.SH NAME
updwtmp, logwtmp \- append an entry to the wtmp file
.SH SYNOPSIS
@ -60,5 +60,22 @@ These days, the
function is included in libutil.
(Hence you'll need to add \fI\-lutil\fP
to your compiler command line to get it.)
.SH NOTES
For consistency with the other "utmpx" functions (see
.BR getutxent (3)),
glibc provides (since version 2.1):
.nf
.sp
.B #include <utmpx.h>
.sp
.BI "void updwtmpx (const char *" wtmpx_file ", const struct utmpx *" utx );
.fi
.PP
This function performs the same task as
.BR updwtmp (),
but differs in that it takes a
.I utmpx
structure as its last argument.
.SH "SEE ALSO"
.BR getutxent (3),
.BR wtmp (5)
