The functions Fseek, fseek (and Fread, fread, Fwrite, fwrite, etc.)
seem to perform essentially equivalent functions.  To do simple file
i/o, I could use the capital F's or the small f's to do essentially
the same things.  Is there a prefered choice?  How do you choose?

My inclination is to use the small f's since I'll end up with code
which is easier to port to a unix environment.  Is there something subtle
going on here that I'm missing?

Thanks,

Jonathan Nagy
