File and Path Function
int truncate(const char *filename, off_t length);
Internationalization (I18n) Function Overview
The truncate function changes the size of filename to length.
If length is shorter than the previous length, data at the end will be lost.
The file must be writable by the user to perform this operation.
The function returns 0 if successful; else it returns -1 and sets
the global errno variable with the error value.
There is no wide-character version of the function.
I18n Issues
On ANSI UTF-16 platforms, use a conversion function to convert the
wide-character string to a multibyte-character string and then call truncate.
See Pathnames for a discussion of path and filename considerations in
an internationalized application.
